River Vale School District Praised for Strong Financial Health and Clean Audit
- Meeting Overview:
In a recent River Vale School Board meeting, the district’s financial status and audit results were highlighted as key achievements. The finance committee reported no corrective actions, non-compliance issues, or deficiencies in the 2023-2024 audit.
The successful audit was particularly notable, as it is uncommon for districts to have no findings or recommendations. The board expressed gratitude to the finance staff for maintaining such high standards. Additionally, the district’s reserves were discussed, revealing that the maintenance reserve is at maximum capacity, and the capital reserve holds $5.5 million. These reserves ensure the district is well-prepared for future projects and unexpected expenses.
Another topic was the discussion of professional development for teachers, particularly focused on artificial intelligence. Despite a snow day disrupting plans, the district is committed to rescheduling an AI summit for educators.
