Kelly Henderson
Chief Business Officer
Hello Parents and Community Partners,
As Chief Business Officer, I am proud to support the work of Helendale School District by helping ensure our schools have the resources, facilities, and financial support needed to serve students, families, staff, and the community.
Business Services supports the daily operations of the district across a wide range of essential functions, including budget planning and fiscal oversight, facilities and maintenance, purchasing, nutrition, safety and risk management, and technology. Our goal is to make responsible decisions that support student learning while protecting the long-term financial health of the district. You can read more about the work taking place in each of these areas in the updates below.
Technology is part of this work in an increasingly strategic way. In partnership with our Director of Technology, who reports through Business Services, we treat information technology as a strategic function woven into district operations, not solely an instructional tool. Aligning technology with budgeting, purchasing, facilities, and daily operations helps us improve efficiency, strengthen data security, and ensure that every investment delivers real value for students and staff.
Every financial decision impacts our classrooms, our employees, and our community.
For that reason, we remain focused on careful planning, transparency, accountability, and using district resources in ways that best support student success.
Helendale School District values the trust and partnership of our families and community members. We encourage you to stay informed by visiting our website, attending Board of Trustees meetings, and remaining engaged in the work taking place across our district.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership as we work together to provide the best possible educational experience for our students.
