Internal Auditing is an internal review division established within the school district to examine and evaluate its financial and accounting activities and operations.

The objectives of internal auditing are to assist the district's managers in the effective discharge of their responsibilities by furnishing them with periodic analysis, appraisals, and recommendations concerning the activities reviewed.

Authorization is granted internal auditors for full and complete access to any of the district's records (either manual or electronic), physical properties, and personnel relevant to a review. Documents and information given to internal auditors during a periodic review are handled in the same prudent manner as those employees normally accountable for them.

The scope of internal auditing encompasses the examination and evaluation of the adequacy and effectiveness of the district's system of internal controls and the quality of performance in carrying out assigned responsibilities.

A final written report is prepared and issued following the conclusion of each audit or special project and is distributed as appropriate.
