To provide up-to-date and transparent information about the district’s current financial condition, this is the June 20 Community Budget Update.
Weekly Update to State
The WS/FCS Board of Education sent its weekly update to the North Carolina State Board of Education and the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction.
Staff members from WS/FCS met with the NC Auditor’s Office this week, and details are in the weekly update to the State Board of Education.
Here is the letter, signed by WS/FCS Board Chair Deanna Kaplan.
Withholding Review
WS/FCS has been in contact with the federal government to review discrepancies with federal withholding payments and reports sent to the IRS. There may be funds owed for the withholding due and for interest penalties. WS/FCS has requested all IRS documents and statements so that leaders can be confident that they have all the information needed to determine next steps and financial impact.
Additional Steps
WS/FCS continues to pay down debts with funds available from revenue streams. Interim Superintendent Catty Moore will provide a budget update on Tuesday at the regularly scheduled meeting of the WS/FCS Board of Education at 6:30 p.m. She will also provide a copy of her presentation next week.
