Auditor General DePasquale Releases Audit Reports for School Districts in Cumberland, Fayette and Lehigh Counties
HARRISBURG (Oct. 4, 2013) – Auditor General Eugene DePasquale today announced the release of audit reports for three school districts in Cumberland, Fayette and Lehigh counties.
The department’s Bureau of School Audits examines the records of school districts, charter schools, intermediate units, and area vocational-technical schools. The audits — among other things — assess whether or not school entities received the state subsidies and reimbursements to which they were entitled, accurately managed taxpayer funds, and complied with ethics codes. The audits also determine whether or not teachers and administrators were properly certified for the positions they held during the audit period.
