Title C23 - 2015-2016 Clay County District School Board Operational Audit, 2015-2016 Clay County District School Board Financial Audit | ||
Description Pursuant to 1010.30 F.S., school districts are required to have an annual financial, operational and single audit of the district school board. The Auditor General is required to conduct the annual audit at least once every three years. During the off years, the school districts are required to engage an independent auditing firm to conduct its annual audits. For the 15-16 school year, the district engaged both the Auditor General and the District's independent auditing firm to conduct the following audits. The Auditor General's Office conducted the annual operational audit for the 15-16 school year. The Independent Auditing Firm, Purvis Gray and Company, CPA's, conducted the annual financial and single audit for the 15-16 school year. Both reviews included follow-up on findings from the prior year 2014-2015 audit conducted by the Auditor General's office. The report of the Auditor General reflects a total of eight findings of which five of the findings are repeat findings from the prior year report. Corrective actions are included in the report to address the findings. The report of the Independent Audit of Purvis Gray reflects a total of three findings of which corrective actions are included in the report. | ||
