Printer friendly news release

HARRISBURG (Aug. 1, 2018) – Auditor General Eugene DePasquale today announced the release of audit reports for school districts in Erie and Delaware counties.

“Students and staff deserve to know that administrators are using their schools’ resources efficiently and effectively,” DePasquale said. “That way, they can put their focus where it belongs: on the classroom.”

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 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 teachers and administrators were properly certified for the positions they held during the audit period.

The full audit reports are available online using the links provided below.
