Mister Isner outlined Goal 3, which emphasizes balanced budgets, long‑term financial forecasting, device and software renewal cycles, facilities master planning and stronger cybersecurity and internal controls.

Mister Isner, the district finance lead, told the board that Goal 3 reframes finance and operations around long‑range forecasting and stewardship of resources. "This goal seeks to ensure responsible stewardship of district resources through efficient operations, sound financial planning, and transparent decision making," he said, adding that the plan calls for 5–10 year forecasting and better alignment of resources with instructional priorities.

Isner emphasized technology and cybersecurity as new priorities in the finance section, including software and device renewal cycles intended to smooth capital needs and extend useful life. He also tied the work to an ongoing facilities master plan and said the district hopes to make measurable strides over the plan horizon.
