Auditing School District Federal Funding (bold)

This Governmental Audit Quality Center (GAQC) web event will dive into the details and audit considerations of several federal programs most commonly received by school districts.
If your practice focuses on K–12 schools, you have likely run into the Child Nutrition Cluster, Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies, and the Special Education Cluster. All three programs have specific nuances and unique characteristics that present challenges for both recipients and auditors.
