Michigan residents can now view the fiscal health of schools across the state through the MI School Financials Dashboard, according to the Michigan Department of Treasury.

The new, easy-to-use website provides visual financial data about Michigan's local school districts, intermediate school districts and public school academies through interactive maps, pie charts and graphs.

Michiganders can view and compare school revenues and expenditures, as well as student count and funding per student, among other topics.

"This dashboard provides a financial snapshot of the state's nearly 900 schools," said Deputy State Treasurer Dr. Eric Scorsone, head of Treasury's Local and State finance Group. "Taxpayers can explore an interactive map to obtain a better understanding about their school's finances."
