Ed Week is hosting an online “chat,” in which a pair of experts on school budgets and finance will be answering your questions at 2 p.m. today about districts’ struggles during the aftermath of “the Great Recession.”

Our guests are Noelle Ellerson, of the American Association of School Administrators, who can offer an on-the-ground perspective on what schools are going through, and Donald J. Boyd, of the Nelson A. Rockefeller Institute of Government, who can speak to some of the big-picture economic forces at work. The discussion focuses on some of the topics put forward in Ed Week’s newly released edition of Quality Counts, which focuses on the financial crisis.
