Financial Services

MSESC Financial Services is a cost-effective answer to the demands of shrinking school budgets, providing year-round assistance to a growing number of West Virginia counties at a competitive rate.

Every county board member and superintendent is familiar with the financial challenges schools face. These challenges are costly due to diminishing resources and the ever-present need to ensure our students receive the best education possible. Mountain State can help train new employees in your finance office or assist during a transition.

This allows you to put more money in the classroom!

Our all-inclusive Financial Services package may include:

• Payroll
• Accounts Payable
• Vendor Records
• Invoicing
• Training sessions for county employees

For more information, please contact Jan Hanlon, Executive Director, for a customized quote for your county!

The cooperative utilizes purchasing procedures aligned with WVDE Accounting Procedures.
