Board accepts clean audits, Business Manager warns of 'significant cuts' ahead
Summary
The board accepted two clean audits for the 2024–25 general and SIA budgets and heard Business Manager Mike Moha warn that the district will need significant budget cuts in coming years; the audit items were approved unanimously by attendees (6 ayes, 1 absent).
At the March 11 meeting the Warrenton‑Hammond School District board accepted the June 30, 2025 audit reports for both the general district budget and the Student Investment Account (SIA). Business Manager Mike Moha told the board both reports were clean and that government auditing standards and SIA rules require separate approval for the SIA audit.
Moha also reviewed fiscal patterns, noting that February and March are typically higher‑spend months and that 54.1% of spending has occurred to date. He warned the board that "it isn't good" and said the administration "will be presenting significant cuts over the next couple of years." Directors were encouraged to meet with the business office before the formal budget hearing to understand options.
