Independent Audit Of HFCS Finances Gets Highest Rating
by Deb Alter
The first order of business at the September 17 HFCSD Board meeting was the Annual Independent Auditor’s Report. Alan Walther, the representative of the Bonadio Group presented the report to the Board. He said the process and the report were lengthier than usual because of some new criteria and requirements from the State. The report was excellent, giving the District an “Unmodified Opinion,” which is the highest rating possible and means that the District is in complete compliance in all areas of the audit with no deficiencies. Board Member John Helft asked Walther if it was unusual for a district to get a totally clean audit, and Walther replied that it is, and that HFCS is “head and shoulders above with the extra-curricular accounting.” [Read more…] about HFCS School Board Action
