Chase County Schools was mentioned in a press release today. Our official response is below.
Chase County Schools is disappointed by the public release from the Auditor of Public Accounts criticizing the school’s internal accounting of the purchase of display boards proportionally allocated out of the school nutrition fund. As noted in the school district’s response to the auditor’s inquiry, the district undertook this purchase with transparency and with documented approval from the Nebraska Department of Education as to the use of funds from the nutritional program. The school district’s position is fully detailed in its response to the auditor’s initial inquiry and was included in the auditor’s final letter found in a link below. To date, neither the Auditor of Public Accounts nor the Nebraska Department of Education have recommended any specific action be taken to address the concerns identified by the auditor. The school district will continue to cooperate with the Nebraska Department of Education to ensure that this and all purchases are appropriately accounted for.

These are our monthly PBIS winners for September. Each month we draw two PBIS tickets (one for grades K-2 and one for grades 3-4) and two Longhorn Bucks (one for grades 5-6 and one for grades 7-8). The student and the teacher that gave the student that ticket/buck are rewarded.
