The Hermiston School District Board has honored for its financial reporting for the 17th year.
The district’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022, qualified for the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada’s (GFOA) Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting.
To earn the award, the district’s financial report was judged by a panel to determine if it met the standards of the program, which includes demonstrating a constructive “spirit of full disclosure” to clearly communicate the district’s financial story and motivate individuals to read the report.
This award is the highest form of recognition in the area of governmental accounting and financial reporting, and its attainment represents a significant accomplishment by a government and its management.
“We have top professionals working in our Business Department,” said Superintendent of Schools Dr. Tricia Mooney. “Receiving this award for the 17th time is a testament to their hard work. We also have great leadership from the school board as well as community members who have served on the budget committee. Together as a whole, each of
them has helped the district maintain exemplary financial stewardship.”
