Box 2387 Denton, Texas 76202 December 16, 2016 To the Board of Trustees and the Citizens of the Denton Independent School District: The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) of the Denton Independent School District (“DISD” or the “District”) for the year ended June 30, 2016, is hereby submitted. Responsibility for both the accuracy of the data and the completeness and fairness of the presentation, including all disclosures, rests with the District. To the best of our knowledge and belief, the enclosed data is accurate in all material respects and is reported in a manner designed to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of the various funds of the DISD. All disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain an understanding of the District’s financial activities have been included. The DISD is required to undergo an annual single audit in conformity with the provisions of the Single Audit Act of 1984 as amended in 1996 and Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Information relating to this single audit, including the schedule of expenditures of federal awards, findings and recommendations and independent auditors’ reports on internal controls and compliance with applicable laws and regulations, is included in the single audit section. This report includes all funds of the Denton Independent School District. The DISD maintains a fully accredited early childhood through grade twelve program and is accredited by both the Texas Education Agency and AdvancED. The District provides a full range of services. These services include general education for grades pre-kindergarten through twelve, special education for students from birth through twenty-one years of age, accelerated education for students requiring remediation, a variety of technical courses and a number of elective and advanced placement courses for those students who wish additional experiences or challenges. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) requires that management provide a narrative introduction, overview and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements in the form of Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). This letter of transmittal is designed to complement MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it. The District’s MD&A can be found immediately following the report of the independent auditors. 1 GOVERNING BODY The seven members of the Board of Trustees serve - without compensation - a three-year term of office. On a rotating basis, two or three places are filled during annual elections held in May. Vacancies may be filled by appointment until the next election. Candidates must be qualified voters of the District. Regular meetings are typically scheduled the second and fourth Tuesdays of the month and are held in the District’s administration building. Special meetings and study sessions are scheduled as needed and announced in compliance with public notice requirements. The Board has final control over local school matters limited only by the state legislature, by the courts and by the will of the people as expressed in school Board elections. Board decisions are based on a majority vote of the quorum present. Generally, the Board adopts policies, sets direction for curriculum, employs the Superintendent and oversees the operations of the District and its schools. Besides general Board business, Trustees are charged with numerous statutory regulations including appointing the tax assessor/collector, calling trustee and other school elections and canvassing the results, organizing the Board and electing its officers. The Board is also responsible for setting the tax rate, setting salary schedules and acting as a board of appeals in personnel and student matters, confirming recommendations for textbook adoptions and adopting and amending the annual budget.
