Anyone who has perused a school budget or attended a school board meeting where budgets were discussed knows the detailed spending and revenue plans are no simple thing to understand.
But Michael Miller, business manager for Eastern Lebanon County School District, apparently has the process down pat. This year, for the second year running, ELCO was recognized by the Association of School Business Officials International with the Meritorious Budget Award (MBA) for the 2020–21 budget year.
The award is given each year, according to an ASBO press release, “for excellence in budget presentation.”

“Michael has done yeoman’s work to complete the necessary steps in the process,” ELCO superintendent Julia R. Vicente told LebTown, “and receiving the recognition is quite an accomplishment.”
