Community members may also be interested in the State Auditor's Financial Intelligence Tool (FIT), which provides a snapshot of the District's financial health. For the first time since the tool has been available, the District has two orange (Cautionary) indicators related to the decline in the General Fund balance and one red (Concerning) indicator related to enrollment decline.
The District remains committed to transparency, accountability, and careful stewardship of public resources.
