Auditor General DePasquale Releases Audits for School Entities in Berks, Columbia, Montgomery, Union and Wayne Counties
HARRISBURG (August 7, 2014) – Auditor General Eugene DePasquale today announced the release of audit reports for four school districts in Berks, Columbia, Union and Wayne counties and one arts and technology center in Montgomery County.
The Department of the Auditor General 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.
