Tri-Township reports clean audits, bids for capital projects and grant plans
Summary
Superintendent Paige McNulty told the Tri-Township Consolidated School Corporation board that the district completed an ECA audit with no findings and a regular audit with only minor clerical issues; the board was also told capital improvements are underway and staff are pursuing a Digital Learning Grant to expand work-based learning.
Dr. Paige McNulty, superintendent of the Tri-Township Consolidated School Corporation, told the board on March 30 that the district completed both its extracurricular activities (ECA) audit and its regular audit with strong results. The ECA audit returned zero findings, and auditors noted only minor clerical items in the regular audit, McNulty said, and she thanked Treasurer Dara Guse and Deputy Treasurer Amy Wozniak for their work on the audits.
McNulty said capital improvements are moving forward: the athletic field and track have new wraps and the track is nearly complete. She said the corporation has posted several projects for bid and will hold a public bid opening April 21 at 1:00 p.m. in the school cafeteria for interested local contractors.
Principal Brian McMahan, in a forwarded report to the board, summarized recent academic work at the junior-senior high school: juniors completed March SAT testing, the district implemented a January–February SAT-preparation schedule and is considering broader, earlier practice testing for underclassmen. McMahan said staff are preparing an application to the state for a Digital Learning Grant through 220 Learning to support work-based learning simulations and additional course offerings, including AI-focused coursework, and they are expanding internship and work-based learning placements for students.
Why it matters: clean audits reduce the risk of corrective action and free staff capacity for instruction and capital work; successful grant applications and expanded work-based learning could create new pathways to careers for students.
The board received the reports as information; no formal action on audits, capital projects or the grant application was recorded at this meeting. The corporation will open bids for capital projects on April 21 and expects further staff follow-up on the Digital Learning Grant application.
