Audit of 2000-2001 General State Aid Claim
I am in receipt
of the results of the 2000-2001 General State Aid Claim audit conducted
by ISBE auditor Brent Appell over the past few days.
The audit shows
a negative adjustment of $4,696.80 for General State Aid and a negative
adjustment of $121.37 for School Safety and Educational Improvement
Block Grant, for a total of $4,818.17. The GSA adjustments are due
to enrollment counting errors when students are either dropped and
kept on the books or transferred to other schools within the District
and double counted. I will be notifying principals to remind them
to watch monthly add/drops to ensure the students are actually dropped
from attendance records. Also, building principals need to notify
the administration when non-resident students attend so they will
be given the proper non-claimable attendance code.
The impact to
the District will occur when the District receives the GSA allocation
in fiscal year 2003.
