KTEP is the strongest public radio station in the El Paso market, serving El Paso and the surrounding areas up to 100 miles in radius. In addition to many local programs targeted specifically towards the El Paso community, KTEP also broadcasts news, cultural, and educational programs from National Public Radio and Public Radio International, as well as other independent radio networks. In addition to serving the El Paso community, KTEP also serves as a laboratory for broadcast students. KTEP is supported in part by the University of Texas at El Paso, which provides space for the station on campus, and pays the salaries of most of the full-time employees. The remaining funds come from the KTEP listening community through memberships and underwriting support and grants from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (“CPB”). KTEP is not a separate legal entity from UTEP and is therefore exempt from income taxes. Overview of the Financial Statements KTEP’s financial statements present the financial activities of KTEP only, which are a group of accounts within UTEP’s accounting system. All amounts contained in these financial statements are included in the financial statements of the University of Texas System, a component unit of the State of Texas. The financial statements of KTEP are prepared in conformity with Governmental Accounting Standards Board pronouncements. Following this section are the basic financial statements and footnotes which should be read in conjunction with this discussion and analysis. The Statements of Net Position provide information on the types of assets and liabilities of KTEP, with the difference between the two reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether KTEP’s financial position is improving or deteriorating. The Statements of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position provide information on income and expenses for the year, with additional detail of the expenses provided in the supplementary Schedules of Functional Expenses. The Statements of Cash Flows show the sources and uses of cash and the net changes in cash during the year. The Notes to the Financial Statements provide additional information essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the financial statements. -4- KTEP-FM OF THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT EL PASO MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AUGUST 31, 2017 AND 2016 Financial Highlights A summarized comparison of KTEP’s assets, deferred outflows, liabilities, deferred inflows, and net position at August 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, are as follows: 2017 2016 2015 Current assets $ 103,333 $ 139,830 $ 197,428 Capital assets, net 12,485 26,054 41,018 Total assets 115,818 165,884 238,446 Deferred outflows of resources - - 11,529 Total assets and deferred outflows 115,818 165,884 249,975 Current liabilities 55,579 41,092 41,098 Noncurrent liabilities - - 60,508 Total liabilities 55,579 41,092 101,606 Deferred inflows of resources - - 18,509 Net position Investment in capital assets 12,485 26,054 41,018 Unrestricted 47,754 98,738 88,842 Total net position 60,239 124,792 129,860 Total liabilities, deferred inflows, and net position $ 115,818 $ 165,884 $ 249,975 Current assets decreased by $36,497 as of August 31, 2017, consisting of decreases in cash of $38,175 and prepaid expenses of $1,471, offset by an increase in receivables of $3,149. Capital assets decreased by $13,569 as a result of depreciation. Current liabilities increased by $14,487 as of August 31, 2017, due to timing of payments of programming fees. KTEP’s total net position decreased by $64,553 as of August 31, 2017. The decrease in investment in capital assets corresponds with the decrease in capital assets discussed above. The decrease in unrestricted net position of $50,984 was the result of operating activities, with the exclusion of depreciation expense. -5- KTEP-FM OF THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT EL PASO MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS AUGUST 31, 2017 AND 2016 A summarized comparison of KTEP’s revenues, expenses and changes in net position for the years ended August 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 are as follows: 2017 2016 2015 Operating revenues UTEP direct and indirect support $ 411,796 $ 412,999 $ 403,328 Grants 147,798 149,975 155,685 Membership, gifts and other 351,485 370,512 315,534 Total revenue 911,079 933,486 874,547 Operating expenses Program services 658,740 673,077 630,521 Supporting services 316,892 332,965 292,033 Total expenses 975,632 1,006,042 922,554 Operating income (loss) (64,553) (72,556) (48,007) Change in net position (64,553) (72,556) (48,007) Beginning net position, (restated for 2016) 124,792 197,348 177,867 Ending net position $ 60,239 $ 124,792 $ 129,860 Operating revenues for 2017 decreased by $22,407 or 2 %. Membership, gifts and other revenues decreased by $19,027 in 2017 primarily due to a nonrecurring 2016 gift of $35,000 for station improvements and equipment upgrades. UTEP’s direct and indirect support decreased by $1,203 and grants by $2,177. Operating expenses for 2017 decreased by $30,410 or 3%. Program services decreased $14,337, primarily due to switching two students to supporting services and changes to programs in an effort to reduce programming costs. Supporting services decreased by $16,073 due to the fact that 2016 expenses included station improvement costs. Economic Outlook KTEP’s main broadcast antenna was damaged in a wind storm in December 2016 which required more than $36,000 to repair. While the antenna was covered by the University of Texas at El Paso’s insurance policy, KTEP still had a $10,000 deductible which had to be paid. To expedite the work and minimize the time that KTEP would broadcast on low power, the repairs were paid up-front and insurance reimbursed the difference once the claim cleared. This required KTEP to receive permission from program suppliers to pay some program fees later than usual. Payment for some of these fees was then pushed back into fiscal year 2018, which is reflected in the increase in accounts payable at August 31, 2017. -6- KTEP is aggressively fundraising to ensure that any future equipment failures will not leave the station without means to make the necessary repairs. Unfortunately, the El Paso economy slowed some in 2017 making it difficult to achieve these fundraising goals. We are currently in the process of making additional programming adjustments that will lower some of the programming costs for next year. Moreover we are seeing a slight increase in program underwriting and vehicle donations for this year so we are certain that KTEP’s financial situation will continue to improve as we move forward. Contacting KTEP’s Management This financial report is designed to provide our listening and membership community and grantors with a general overview of KTEP’s finances. If you have any questions about this report, please contact KTEP’s General Manager at 500 West University Avenue, Cotton Memorial Bldg, Suite 203, El Paso, Texas 79968. -7- FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -8- KTEP-FM OF THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT EL PASO STATEMENTS OF NET POSITION AUGUST 31, 2017 AND 2016 ASSETS 2017 2016 Current Assets: Cash $ 94,113 $ 132,288 Membership and gift receivables 4,031 882 Prepaid expenses 5,189 6,660 Total current assets 103,333 139,830 Capital assets, net 12,485 26,054 Total assets $ 115,818 $ 165,884 LIABILITIES AND NET POSITION Current Liabilities: Accounts payable and accrued expenses $ 55,579 $ 41,092 Total liabilities 55,579 41,092 Net Position Investment in capital assets 12,485 26,054 Unrestricted net position 47,754 98,738 Total net position 60,239 124,792 Total liabilities and net position $ 115,818 $ 165,884 The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. -9- KTEP-FM OF THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT EL PASO STATEMENTS OF REVENUES, EXPENSES, AND CHANGES IN NET POSITION FOR THE YEARS ENDED AUGUST 31, 2017 AND 2016 2017 2016 Operating Revenues: University of Texas at El Paso direct support $ 297,515 $ 298,657 Indirect administrative and occupancy support from University of Texas at El Paso 114,281 114,342 Membership contributions and gifts 261,381 289,551 Grants 147,798 149,975 Program underwriting 36,982 26,259 In-kind contributions 53,122 54,702 Total operating revenues 911,079 933,486 Operating Expenses: Programming and production 411,261 424,565 Broadcasting 172,835 171,040 Program information and promotion 74,644 77,472 Management and general 266,155 281,946 Fundraising and membership development 50,737 51,019 Total operating expenses 975,632 1,006,042 Operating income (loss) (64,553) (72,556) Change in net position (64,553) (72,556) Net position, beginning of year 124,792 197,348 Net position, end of year $ 60,239 $ 124,792 The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements.

  • School Performance Review El Paso Letter of Transmittal 1999
    LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL March 29, 1999 The Honorable George W. Bush The Honorable Rick Perry The Honorable James E. "Pete" Laney Members of the Texas Legislature Commissioner Michael A. Moses, Ed.D. Ladies and Gentlemen: I am pleased to present our performance review of the El Paso Independent School District (EPISD). This review, requested by EPISD's superintendent and endorsed by Senator Eliot Shapleigh, is intended to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the district's operations by identifying problem areas and recommending innovative improvements. To aid in this task, the Comptroller's office contracted with Empirical Management Services, a Houston-based consulting firm. We have made a number of recommendations to improve EPISD's efficiency, but we also found a number of "best practices" in district operations. This report highlights several model programs and services provided by EPISD's administrators, teachers, and staff. Our primary goal is to help EPISD hold the line on costs, streamline operations, and improve services to ensure that every possible tax dollar is spent in the classroom teaching the district's children. This report outlines 142 detailed recommendations that could save EPISD $27.9 million over the next five years, while reinvesting $14.9 million to improve educational services and other operations. We are grateful for the cooperation of EPISD's administrators and employees, and we commend them and the community for their dedication to improving the educational opportunities offered to the children of El Paso. Sincerely, Carole Keeton Rylander Comptroller of Public Accounts Executive Summary In September 1998, the Comptroller's office conducted a performance review of the El Paso Independent School District (EPISD) at the request of the superintendent.

Although we made every effort to speak directly with a producer of each show we list, we were not always successful. The “Features” tags included with many entries are complete to the best of our abilities—but some shows lack them when we could not be sure of a feature. Similarly, pitching intel is available for shows with which we were able to make contact. We would like to acknowledge Alyssa Goard, Katherine O’Brien, Daniel Steiner, and Lisa Bergstrom, who each had a big hand in bringing this project to completion.

  • Employee Handbook, Which Provides Important Information on Employee and Employment Issues for All District Staff
    OFFICE OF THE SUPERINTENDENT Dear employee, Welcome to another exceptional year at the Ysleta Independent School Dis- trict! As an employee, you play an integral role in helping The District of Champions provide a comprehensive, rigorous, and modern educational pro- gram that prepares students for college and career success. To maintain our tradition as one of the leading employers in El Paso, it is es- sential for Ysleta ISD to provide a healthy and productive work environment for all employees. As a result, it is our pleasure to present you with the 2020- 2021 Ysleta ISD Employee Handbook, which provides important information on employee and employment issues for all district staff. It is designed so you can easily reference a variety of topics, including employee conduct, general procedures, leaves and absences, compensation, and benefits, among others. The 2020-2021 school year marks an unprecedented time at The District, where – for the first time in our 105-year history – we have adopted a year- round calendar. We are confident the year-round calendar will better serve our students, families, faculty, and staff, while empowering us to maintain a quality educational program and workplace that can be easily adapted for emergent situations. In addition, our bond program continues to proceed smoothly at all seven Ysleta ISD Learning Communities, providing millions of dollars for much -needed upgrades, renovations, and new construction to our facilities. Ysleta ISD is committed to ensuring all employees are performing to the best of their abilities – to that end, this handbook outlines The District’s expecta- tions, as well as employees’ rights and responsibilities.
