Ryland SBC has worked for numerous school districts and charter schools through the petition process, in developing budgets, and providing fiscal oversight.

  • Performed charter school petition evaluation, fiscal viability analysis, and charter fiscal oversight on behalf of authorizing agency.
  • We have developed review and oversight checklists, analyzed MOUs for fee maximization, and worked with charter schools to assure renewal.
  • Performed a forensic audit of a financially struggling charter school to determine extent of potential conflict of interest and/or fiscal mismanagement.
  • Assisted a small, rural school district with findings of fact denying one charter school petition that did not meet state requirements, then two years later, worked with the same district and a new charter school petition to collaboratively approve a high-achieving, successful charter school that now has a multi-county waiting list.

"Ryland Strategic Business Consulting is an outstanding company! During a challenging time for our school, Cyndy Spano, a consultant with Ryland Strategic Business Consulting, was able to provide financial expertise and oversight. She was very responsive, able to quickly identify the needs of our school, and just as importantly, understand the culture of our school. Additionally, Ms. Spano provided needed advice as to practices and procedures that we have since implemented and have proven to be invaluable. Her work will have a lasting impact!"
