In this solo episode of School Business Insider, host John Brucato reflects on a remarkable transformation in his district—from the failure of a $36 million bond in 2018 to the successful completion of a $27 million capital project in 2024. With no tax increase and overwhelming community support, this journey was built on trust, transparency, and thoughtful planning.

John shares actionable lessons in stakeholder engagement, strategic communication, and financial stewardship that helped restore confidence and unify a once-divided community. Whether you're facing a tough bond climate or seeking to strengthen public trust, this episode offers real-world insights for school business leaders at every level.
