The Altar Valley School District No. 51 has won the Association of School Business Officials International’s (ASBO) Certificate of Excellence in Financial Reporting Program (COE) for excellence in the preparation and issuance of the fiscal years ending 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023.
The Certificate of Excellence in Financial Reporting Program was designed by ASBO International to enable school business officials to achieve a high standard of financial reporting. The award, the highest recognition for school district financial operations offered by ASBO, is only conferred to school systems that have met or exceeded the standards of the program.
The Altar Valley School District validated the credibility of their school system’s operation, measured the integrity and technical competence of the business staff, assisted in strengthening their presentations for bond issuance statements, and provided professional recognition.
