March 2017 Newsletter: Treasurer’s Office Lauded for Stewardship of Public Funds

The District has again received a clean audit report and earned the Auditor of State Award with Distinction for its stewardship of public funds. District Treasurer Bryan C. Christman was presented the commendation earlier this week. Statewide, only 5 percent of school districts and local governments receive the honor.

“Taxpayers place their trust in us, and that is a responsibility that we take very seriously,” said Christman, the District’s treasurer and chief financial officer. “This award represents the diligence and hard work of each and every member of the treasurer’s office and many other employees throughout the District.”

The Auditor of State Award with Distinction is presented to local governments and school districts upon the completion of a financial audit. Entities that receive the award meet a variety of criteria for a “clean” audit report, including no findings for recovery, material citations, material weaknesses, significant deficiencies or questioned costs.

“Clean and accurate record-keeping are the foundation for good government, and the taxpayers can take pride in your commitment to accountability,” Auditor Dave Yost said.
