How do we know funds from the previous referendums are being handled properly?
We have monitored referendum spending very closely: • Referendum expenditures are a part of the financial reports that are presented on a monthly basis at School Board Meetings. These sessions are open to the public, and the information detailed in these reports can be viewed by the community at any time. • The state conducts its own independent audit of our capital and operating funds (including referendum projects) annually. • We have a longstanding commitment to maintain a Citizen’s Financial Advisory Committee. Community members review district financial matters on a monthly basis, including referendum spending. • Last but not least, the volunteer referendum committee from our last district-wide effort has remained in place and has been kept up-to-date on how referendum money is being used.
