The size of the office staff precludes a proper segregation of functions to assure adequate internal control.
This is not unusual for Districts your size, but the Board of Education and management should continue to be aware of this condition and to realize that the concentration of duties and responsibilities in a limited number of individuals is not desirable for an effective system of internal control. Under these conditions, the most effective controls lie in the Board of Education’s and management’s knowledge of matters relating to the District’s operations.
Management and the Board will continue to be aware of this condition and continue to be involved in the matters relating to the District’s operations. However, it is not feasible or cost effective to add staff to achieve the desired level of internal control.
