At Bexley City Schools, we believe financial accountability and transparency are critical in maintaining our community’s trust. It is important that while we meet the educational needs of our students and families, we do this in a fiscally responsible way.
Each year, the Ohio Auditor of State’s office conducts an audit of our financial records and practices. The Bexley City School District has received a clean audit opinion and the Ohio Auditor of State Award six times since 2015, including for fiscal years 2020-2023 – the past four consecutive years. “Clean” audits show no findings for recovery or indication of any weaknesses or deficiencies in their record-keeping or financial processes, nor indicate any financial or other concerns, such as public-records or banking issues.
The district received 4 out of 4 stars in Fiscal Year 2023 for compliance and excelling at implementing the recommended best practices. Using a star system, the state auditor grades government entities on whether they follow the auditor’s seven best practices in regard to the state’s Sunshine Law requirements.
