District auditors trigger single-audit review; financial report shows $7.26 million balance
Summary
District staff told the board auditors had triggered a single-audit threshold and cited findings related to food-service documentation; the finance report showed a total district balance of about $7.26 million and the board approved the report.
District administrators reported that outside auditors completed work last week and that the district's activity crossed the $1,000,000 threshold that can trigger a single-audit review. Administration said the audit returned limited findings tied to food-service paperwork (unsigned free-and-reduced forms in a prior year) and that the district has re-established a two-signature verification step where advised.
Financial officer Dave (S4) presented account balances as of June 30, 2026, and read the ledger totals into the record: "As of, 06/30/2026, the balance in our Citizens State Bank checking account was $7,235,000.921 dollars and 83¢. For total balance of $7,255,853.80." Board members asked follow-up questions about the audit process and the timeline for the formal audit report; the board moved to approve the financial report and approved it by voice vote.
During the audit overview, administrators described categories that increase location or compliance scrutiny (e.g., food service and special education) and explained corrective steps taken after prior findings. Administrators said the Department of Public Instruction (DPI) conducted a separate food-service review; the board and staff said they welcome audits as a way to identify blind spots and to update internal controls.
