Overview

Guiding school districts every step of the way.

We provide support to school districts in preparing and submitting Annual Financial Reports (AFRs), ensuring compliance with Pennsylvania Department of Education requirements and promoting financial transparency. Recognizing the unique financial landscapes of school districts, our team is well-versed in the specific requirements and regulations governing your organization's business office. We provide tailored support to ensure that all financial statements are accurate, comprehensive, and compliant with applicable standards.

By streamlining the reporting process, we help school districts effectively communicate their financial health to stakeholders, including parents, educators, and community members. Our goal is to empower school districts with the tools and insights needed for sound fiscal management, fostering transparency and building trust within the community.

Whether you need assistance completing the entire AFR, or just need help clearing validation errors, our team can support you.

  • Experience Highlights

    • Our first audit contract with a school district in Western Pennsylvania was signed in 1991, and we continue to serve that client today. We also serve two of the top five Pittsburgh region school districts (as ranked by budget by the Pittsburgh Business Times).
    • We have a dedicated team of senior professionals who routinely lead audit engagements with school districts. We consistently offer best practices and advice that is rooted in our sound technical proficiency when it comes to the procedures of your organization's business office.
