District Budget



DISTRICT BUDGET

One of the primary responsibilities of the Board of Education is to secure adequate funds to conduct a quality program of education in the school district. The annual district budget is a written document presenting the Board's plan for allocation of the available financial resources to sustain and improve the educational function of the school district. It is a legal document describing the programs to be conducted during the fiscal year and is the basis for the establishment of tax rates for the district.

Knob Noster Public Schools' budget is approved each year by the Board of Education. The link below will direct you to Board Docs which is where the budget information is available for public access and viewing. The budget is approved by the Board of Education at the June Regular Meeting each year. The budget provides information on the district's financial affairs and operations and is used to inform decisions of the Board of Education.

DISTRICT FISCAL AUDIT

The assets of Knob Noster Public Schools will be professionally and transparently managed in accordance with law and the high expectations of the Board and the community. The superintendent will ensure that the district's financial statements accurately reflect the district's financial position and that all applicable state and federal laws are followed.

The district will retain an independent auditor at the close of each fiscal year for the purpose of auditing and making necessary reports to the Board of Education, the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) and the federal government. The Board directs all district employees to cooperate with and assist the auditor so that the Board may obtain a fair and accurate report.
