For the 26th year in a row, the Tempe Union High School District has earned the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting by the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada. It is the highest form of recognition in government accounting and financial reporting.
The award recognizes TUHSD’s comprehensive annual financial report for the fiscal year that ended June 30, 2015. Assistant Superintendent for Business Services
Diane Meulemans and her team prepared the award-winning CAFR.
In a letter announcing the award, Technical Services Center Director Stephen J. Gauthier said: “We hope that your example will encourage other government officials in their efforts to achieve and maintain an appropriate standard of excellence in financial reporting.”
The CAFR was judged by an impartial panel to meet the high standards of the program, including demonstrating a constructive “spirit of full disclosure,” to clearly communicate its financial story and motivate potential users and user groups to read the CAFR.
GFOA is a nonprofit professional association serving approximately 17,500 government finance professionals.
