201 Lindenwood Drive Laredo, Texas 78045 Phone: (956) 473-6219 Budget Overview & Highlights Facsimile: (956) 728-8691 The District first began in the spring of 1961 when three tiny common school districts in Webb County met for the purpose of consolidation. Introductory Section
The 1961‐62 school year was the first for the District with grades one through nine and an enrollment of 341 students. The District expects to see an enrollment of 42,641 students in Pre‐Kinder through the twelfth grade for the 2012‐2013 school year.
The annually adopted budget includes the General, Debt Service and Food Service Funds. Total revenues are not equal to total expenditures for all budgeted funds. Revenues equal $339,292,415 and expenditures are $342,203,931. Debt Service used part of the Fund Balance to cover expenditures. The General Fund’s budget is $293,592,745 which deceased by 0.44% over last year’s adopted budget due to a reduction in revenue from the State.
The following major financial goals and objectives guided the budget development process: Sustain the commitment towards the enhancement of academic achievement and provide a safe environment. Maintain a fiscally responsible tax rate while providing the resources necessary to meet the District’s objectives. Maintain adequate and appropriate fund balance levels in accordance with policy. Fund a compensation package that will help attract and retain qualified personnel.
The following highlights represent a brief overview of significant items and initiatives that drove the 2012‐2013 budget.
Student Enrollment
The 2012‐2013 student enrollment is projected at 42,641. This total represents a student increase of 994 from the 2011‐2012 actual enrollment of 41,647. Based on historical trends, the District is expecting an average daily attendance (ADA) of 93.25% which is used to determine a portion of expected state revenue. The projected enrollment will generate an estimated $153,462,614 for the District in Foundation School funds and $16,393,580 in Available School funds. This is a decrease of $13,867,472 over last year’s estimated foundation and available school funds.
In the following tables, the Average Daily Attendance shows an increase however the District is expected to have a decrease in the Foundation School Funds and an increase in the Available School Funds as there are still significant cuts made in public education in continuation from the 82nd Legislative Session.

2 United Independent School District Introductory Section
Instruction
The District remains committed to providing the best education for all students. The focal point of this budget continues to be on instruction with budgeted expenditures for students and teachers making up about 51.0% of the General Operating Fund budget. The District budgeted $174,468,990 for the 2012‐13 school year in instructional and instructional‐related services funds. This represents an increase of $160,575 over the previous year’s budget.
In addition to providing for basic instructional needs, the District continues to fund existing programs such as career & technology and priority school stipends. The budget continues to include support for the established Science, Business, and Engineering Magnets at John B. Alexander High School, United South High School, and United High School respectively.
In the spring of 2012, the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR) replaced the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS). The STAAR program at grades 3‐8 will assess the same subjects and grades that are currently assessed on TAKS. At the high school, however, grade‐specific assessments will be replaced with 12 end‐of‐course (EOC) assessments: Algebra I, geometry, Algebra II, biology, chemistry, physics, English I, English II, English III, World Geography, World History, and U.S. History.
2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 3 Introductory Section
On the STAAR EOC assessments, there are three levels that describe student performance:
Level III: Advanced Academic Performance level II ‐ Satisfactory Academic Performance Level I ‐ Unsatisfactory Academic Performance.
The United Independent School District adopted a standardized dress code for students in grades Pre‐Kinder through High School in. In addition to federal grants for the 2012‐ 13 budget, the District has set aside $450,000 from the General Operating fund for a Uniform Assistance Program to help clothe those students that qualify for support.
College Preparation Program
In 2004‐2005, the District added a College Preparation Program which helps provide training for students of United ISD (independent school district) from grades 6 ‐ 12 on college preparatory materials and issues. The program continues to be funded for the 2012‐2013 academic year with $770,000 allocated for this purpose. Some of the critical issues it offers are introducing the idea of college at a very early age, and also the parental involvement through its FUNdamentals of College Admissions Program that helps families to make decisions about college together. The program is flexible enough to allow for its implementation utilizing the existing class structures, teachers, quality, and uniformity that the District already offers to its students. A local coordinator assigned to act as liaison between the District and the College Preparation Program ensures the goals and objectives of the program are being met.
Campus Changes
With the expected student population growth of 377 students, the 2012‐2013 budget includes 16 (sixteen) classroom teaching positions and the following campus positions:
Nurse (1) Counselors (3) Special Education Teacher Aides (9) Custodians (7)
Since the school district is still growing and a number of teachers have been retiring, the number of teachers with less than five years classroom experience makes up about 31.1% of the District’s teaching staff.

Facilities
No new facilities will open during the 2012‐2013 academic year; however various construction projects are taking place throughout the District and over $500,000 has been allocated for capital improvement projects across the district with an additional $225,000 for the purchase or movement of portable buildings. Also, the District participated in a Qualified School Construction Bond (QSCB) in 2009 for several maintenance projects that included Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance issues, fire detection & alarm system replacements HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) system replacements, electrical & lighting system upgrades, roof replacements, and the rehabilitation of Krueger Stadium.
Debt Management
Debt Service is a major expenditure of the budget. Due to the District’s continual growth the past two decades, the District had held and passed bond elections in 1993, 1998, and 2003. The District will carry the bonded debt until 2035. In 2009, the District issued the Qualified School Construction Bond (QSCB) in the amount of $17.4 million. The QSCB program is part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act and Federal Tax Credit Program. School districts can obtain interest free or very low interest financing for qualified construction projects. The QSCB were issued as Local Maintenance Tax Notes with a low rate of 1.64% and the payments are being funded by the General Operating Fund.
The annual debt payment and fees for 2012‐2013 budget year is $25,817,241, to be paid with $17,315,051 of local funds, $20,133,818 of state assistance and the use of fund balance in the amount of $2,911,516.
Compensation
With payroll expenditures making up General Fund Expenditures by Object about 85% of the total General Operating 5% 2% 0% 0% Budget, one of the major budgetary 6% decisions is the setting of a compensation structure that is financially feasible while remaining competitive with the market. For 2012‐13, the District continued with the Board action to freeze salaries for UISD employees.

2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 5 Introductory Section the employees for a total cost of $867,000 and give a one time incentive retention payment for a total cost of $10,794,530.
Impact of New Legislation
The State of Texas held its 82nd legislative session in the spring of 2011. The passage of Senate Bill 1 had an impact on state funding for public education by decreasing the amount allocated to schools by approximately 6% for the 2012 year and 8% decrease for the 2013 year. For UISD, the state revenue based on current law means that we received $16 million less in state funding for 2012 and an expected $9 million less in 2013 for a total reduction of $25 million.
Tax Rate
Projected revenue is based on a tax rate of $1.19486 which will remain the same as 2011‐ 2011. The maintenance and operations (General Fund) tax rate has remained the same at $1.04 and the interest and sinking (Debt Service) has remained the same at $0.15486. Due to economic changes in the nation and in our community, the District has looked at necessary changes and has reviewed restructuring procedures to maintain a balanced budget with the current tax rate.

The District continues to offer an optional local homestead exemption. Homeowners have their assessed values reduced by 15%. The exemption of 15% from assessed values decreases the total tax liability of a District homeowner.
Transportation Program
The District currently comprises north and southeast Laredo, as well as 75 percent of Webb County covering over 2,448 square miles, an area the size of the state of Delaware. This requires the District to provide transportation to over 11,000 students on a daily basis. In order to accommodate all of the students, the District operates two transportation compounds: one is located in the northern part of the District and serves as the main transportation compound and the other is established at the southern part of the District to serve the campuses located in that vicinity.
For the 2012‐13 school year, the District will maintain staff at current allocations. The District did not increase or decrease the allocation for fuel or parts. The budget will be maintained at current levels and do not foresee any necessary changes in these costs.
Security
Providing a safe school environment continues to be one of the District’s top goals. In 1994, the District formed a Police Department headed by a Chief of Police who works with other personnel in refining and developing proactive security programs and gang management plans to keep campuses safe. The Police Department is involved in activities that encourage support and mutual respect between the District and the community.
Since the formation of the police department, fifty one (51) peace officers, five (5) radio dispatchers, three (3) canine handlers and one hundred and two (102) security guards have been hired and assigned to all campuses. For the 2012‐2013 school year, additional personnel was not needed.
Technology
The District commits to providing the necessary resources to campuses in order to have students excel in education. The Technology Department continues to evaluate the use of computers throughout the district in order to remain current with upcoming technology.
The District continues to use the School Messenger phone service to better communicate with parents, students and staff. The School Messenger phone service is
2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 7 Introductory Section
an automatic calling service that delivers phone messages to parents, teachers, students and faculty in a timely manner. Voice messages are recorded by an administrator and the calls are automatically placed by a phone system to a specified audience. This system is used to notify parents, students and staff of upcoming school events or meetings or about emergency school alerts and warnings.
The District also maintains the use of the Tyler SIS (Student Information Software). Tyler SIS intuitively manages staff’s essential operations, helping to create greater efficiency throughout the school district. It is comprised of the following integrated functions:
Attendance Grade‐book Scheduling Registration & Enrollment Health & Immunization
Fund Balance
We have projected to end the 2013 fiscal year with the same fund balance as the 2012 fiscal year. At the August 31, 2011, the District had an audited fund balance of $102,662,832 and projects a fund balance of $90,703,371 at August 31, 2012. The District has budgeted conservatively to maintain a fund balance that supports at least one month of operating expenditures as required by our local fund balance policy. Below is a chart that indicates the level of expenditures and revenues for the District’s general fund over the last five years and the projected fund balance for 2011‐2012.

KEY FACTORS AND SUMMARY
One of the most significant challenges presented in forming the United ISD budget is the substantial decrease in public education funding in the state of Texas. During the last legislative session, the State of Texas needed to make reductions in order to balance the budget. Since public education is approximately 44% of the State funding, school districts across the State realized that the education budget need to be reduced by $10 Billion. The District has continued initiatives to control expenditures and manage staff needs carefully while allowing campus operations to continue. A 5% reduction in the operating budgets for campuses and departments was approved by the Board Members when the budget was adopted.
Another major budgeting factor for a district that covers over 2,400 square miles is the increase in fuel and material costs. The major departments affected are the District’s Police, Transportation, and Facilities Departments. While each of these departments received additional funding to cover the increased costs, every effort has been made to monitor their needs. The District will make changes if necessary in order to maintain continued services for children. The following pages provide further enhancements and reductions made to various areas of the budget for 2012‐2013.

2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 11 Introductory Section
SHORT TERM BUDGET STRATEGIES
The following are short‐term budget strategies which guided the development of the 2012‐13 budget.
Fund Balance
United Independent School District operates under a balanced budget practice. As a sound financial management practice, it has been a District “budgeting” goal to avoid the use of fund balance to support long‐term, on‐going expenses. Therefore, the District strives to adopt a “balanced” budget for every fiscal year.
For the budget year 2013, estimated revenue is equal to the budgeted expenditures; therefore the District adopted a “balanced” budget. It is the intent of management to ensure that future fund balances will support the district’s budget which has been growing 10% to 13% until the past two years of budget reductions of $25 million.
The fund balance for the General Fund at August 31, 2012 was $90,706,371 with $63,948,606 reported as Unassigned. For August 31, 2013 the un‐audited fund balance is expected to remain stable at or around $90,706,371, since a balanced budget was adopted by the Board of Trustees for 2012‐2013.
Management plans to prepare a “balanced” budget for the General Fund, for the next fiscal year, 2013‐2014 and for the years 2014‐15 and 2015‐16, if feasible.
Operating Capital
Operating capital is often called “pay‐as‐you‐go” capital since projects and equipment in this category are funded directly from operating revenue, rather than through borrowing against future revenue.
A two year Capital Acquisition Plan (CAP) continues to be revised and updated in order to address the needs of various support departments with vehicle and major equipment needs. If there are available resources, the District will budget for these expenditures during the budget process. If the needs are of a substantial amount, the District will seek alternative funding through borrowing against future revenue or from available fund balance.
The District issued in 2009 a Qualified School Construction Bond (QSCB) in the amount of $17,310,000 to fund maintenance projects that were included in the District’s long‐range Facilities Master Plan. It cost the District approximately 2.065 cents of the
12 United Independent School District Introductory Section maintenance and operations tax rate to cover the payment of all general operating debt ‐ including all outstanding PPFCO’s and Maintenance Tax Notes. (See charts on general operating outstanding debt and future debt requirement on pages 74 and 75).
Taxes
One of the main sources of funding for Texas public school district budgets is local property taxes. Districts must collect taxes at a Maintenance & Operation (M & O) rate of $0.86 per $100 valuation to receive state funding under the “foundation” funding level. House Bill 1 (HB1) mandated Texas public school districts adopt a M&O tax rate for 2007‐08 at 66.6% of their 2005‐06 tax rate. It allowed districts to increase their tax rate by an additional $0.04 by fiscal year 2007‐08. The District’s current M&O tax rate will remain the same for the 2012‐2013 fiscal year at $1.04 with a total tax rate of $1.19486. Future tax rate increases will require a majority vote by the United ISD constituency. Since state funding is tied in closely to the ability of a school district to collect taxes, it is imperative an “ideal” tax rate for M & O be set that allows a district to maximize state revenue.
In addition to state required tax exemptions, United ISD continue to offer an optional local homestead exemption of 15% to its taxpayers; thus, reducing the District’s collections from tax sources.
Since state funding relies on “local effort” of tax collections, the District continues to contract an attorney to assist in the collection of delinquent tax accounts. As in past years, it is the district’s financial goal to collect at least 96.5% of our levy each year.
State Revenue
Approximately 70% of the state revenue earned by the District is attributed to the student growth and special populations of students it serves. The “foundation” funding level is driven by the average daily attendance (ADA) of students and the full‐ time equivalents (FTE) of special populations such as bilingual, special education and economically disadvantaged students. It is imperative the District takes measures to encourage student attendance and identify those students with special needs.
For 2012‐2013, the state revenue projected to be earned was based on an average daily attendance of 96.5%. Management will review daily enrollment figures to assure that the projected enrollment and attendance rate will be met. Six weeks reports of daily attendance and of special populations will be reviewed to assure that all populations are being counted accurately so as to secure state funding for those special programs as well.
2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 13 Introductory Section
Staffing
Payroll expenditures are over 85% of total general fund budgeted expenditures. Staffing requests are scrutinized carefully before positions are added to the budget. Texas School Districts are required to staff individual classrooms from Kinder through 4th grade at a 22:1 student/teacher ratio; there is no requirement for other grade levels. United ISD has established campus staffing guidelines to ensure not only reasonable class sizes for other grade levels (5th‐12th grade) but also to assure equality in staffing between campuses. Most campus positions such as administrators, custodians and teacher aides are driven by student enrollment. Department staffing needs are determined by the department heads and prioritized by top management.
For the 2012‐13 budget, staffing levels increased over the 2011‐12 level by 37 positions. In accordance with the campus staffing guidelines, the District increased 36 campus positions including teachers, counselors, custodians and educational aides, see pages 134 ‐135 for a breakdown of campus personnel. An additional position was increased in the technology department for a network operator. A breakdown of department personnel is listed on page 219.

DISTRICT OVERVIEW
The District The United Independent School District was incorporated in 1961. Today it is the largest school district in Webb County. United ISD encompasses 2,448 square miles. United ISD is one of the fastest growing districts in Texas, averaging an increase of approximately 500 students per year. In 2012‐13, United ISD will educate over 42,641 students.
Ninety‐eight percent 98.2% of the students are Hispanic, 1.2% are White, 0.1% are African American, 0.3% are Asian and 0.1%, are American Indian.
Schools Elementary Schools (Pre‐Kinder to 5th Grade) 26 Middle Schools (Grades 6, 7 and 8th) 9 High Schools (Grades 9, 10, 11 and 12th) 5 Magnet Schools (Grades 9‐12th) 4 Alternative Education Center 1 Odeyssey Ware (Credit Recovery) Program 4 *See actual location of schools on page
Academics play a significant role in the lives of our students. Our campuses offer a wide variety of courses in all academic areas, including gifted and talented, careers and technology, and advanced placement courses at our secondary schools. Community and Parental Involvement is a high priority for our schools. With the difficulty in accessing the city’s few libraries, some campuses have become hubs for learning and reading through Library Nights, Family Reading Nights, Picnic Up a Good Book and Read, and Biblio‐therapy. The Technology Linking the Community program fosters technological literacy in parents and the community through classes offered at several campuses.
In 2004‐05 the E‐Chalk Teacher E‐mail System was set up in order to facilitate communications between campuses and parents. With this system, teachers are able to place their class schedules, calendars, and homework on line for parents to have easy access to the information at any time. Another useful tool is the School Messenger system. This system enables the campuses and the District to communicate with parents by leaving phone messages in the event of an emergency, for special announcements and for attendance issues. Messages are sent in English and Spanish to both residential and cell phone numbers. UISD implemented the system to help keep parents informed and up to date regarding important information about their children.

Organizational Structure
The District Board of Trustees (Board) derives its legal status from the Constitution of the State of Texas and from the Texas Education Code, as passed and amended by the Legislature of Texas.
The Board is the level of government that has oversight responsibility and control over all activities related to public education in the United Independent School District. The Board receives funding from local, state and federal source entities. However, the District is not included in any other governmental “reporting entity” as defined in the Codification of Governmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards issued by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB).
The seven trustees of the Board are elected under a single‐member district plan. After each census is taken, the Board of Trustees apportions the school district into seven areas of similar population. These are called school board member (trustee) areas. Trustees are elected to represent these seven areas for four‐year terms.
Serving without compensation, Board members establish the policies by which schools operate. In carrying out the task of setting policy, the board identifies needs and establishes priorities for the school system, allocates financial and human resources among the priority areas and evaluates school performance.
The board is empowered to provide tax monies for maintenance and operation of the schools and to submit bond issues to be voted on by the citizens of the District for construction of school facilities. The board also elects the Superintendent as Chief Instructional and Executive Officer of the District.
The Superintendent structures the District’s organization in a manner that will allow ample leadership and support at all levels of the District. See the District organizational chart on page 18.

Fiscal Policies and Practices
The United Independent School District has an important responsibility to its students and taxpayers to carefully account for public funds, to manage the District finances wisely, to manage growth and plan the adequate funding of the educational services provided to the 42,641 students expected to attend the District in 2012‐13 and those that will attend in the future.
The following pages include legal requirements, excerpts from financial policies and practices that are used as guidelines to ensure integrity, prudent stewardship, planning, accountability and full disclosure of the District’s finances. Some of these policies included are: fund balance, debt administration, investments, independent audit and
26 United Independent School District OrganizationDocument Section Title financial reporting, basis of accounting, financial ethics and fixed asset policy.
Statement of Texas Law
Sections 44.002 through 44.006 of the Texas Education Code establish the legal basis for budget development in school districts. The following seven items summarize the legal requirements from the code:
1. The superintendent is the budget officer for the district and prepares or causes the budget to be prepared. 2. The District budget must be prepared by a date set by the State Board of Education, currently August 20th. 3. The President of the Board of Trustees must call a public meeting of the board of trustees, giving ten days public notice in a newspaper, for adoption of the District budget. Any taxpayer in the District may be present and participate in the meeting. 4. Concurrently with the publication notice of the above, a school district must post a summary of the proposed budget on the school district’s Internet website or in the district’s central administrative office if the school district has no Internet website. The budget summary must include a comparison of the previous year’s actual spending and information relating to per‐student and aggregate spending on instruction, instructional support, central administration, district operations, debt service, and any other category designated by the commissioner.
The summary of the budget should be presented in the following functions: Instruction—functions 11, 12, 13, 95 Instructional Support—functions 21, 23, 31, 32, 33, 36 Central Administration—function 41 District Operations—functions 51, 52, 53, 34, 35 Debt Service—function 71 Other—functions 61, 81, 91, 92, 93, 97, 99
The “per student” will be based on student enrollment.
5. No funds may be expended in any manner other than as provided for in the adopted budget. The Board does have the authority to amend the budget or adopt a supplementary emergency budget to cover unforeseen expenditures. 6. The budget must be prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and state guidelines. 7. The budget must be legally adopted before the adoption of the tax rate.
2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 27 Document Title Organization Section
However, if a school district has a July 1st fiscal year date, then a school district must not adopted a tax rate until after the district receives the certified appraisal roll for the district required by Section 26.01, Tax Code. Additionally, a school district must publish a revised notice and hold another public meeting before the district may adopt a tax rate that exceeds the following: (1) The rate proposed in the notice prepared using the estimate; or (2) The district’s rollback rate determined under Section 26.08, Tax Code, using the certified appraisal roll.
Texas Education Agency (TEA) Legal Requirements
TEA has developed additional requirements for school district budget preparation as follows:
The budget must be adopted by the Board, inclusive of amendments, no later than August 31. The minutes from District board meetings will be used by TEA to record adoption of amendments to the budget. Budget for the General Fund, the Food Service Fund (whether accounted for in the General Fund, Special Revenue Fund, or Enterprise Fund) and the Debt Service Fund must be prepared and approved at least at the fund and function levels to comply with the state’s legal level of control mandates. The officially adopted District budget, as amended, must be filed with TEA through the Public Education Information Management System (PEIMS) by the date prescribed in the annual system guidelines. Revenues, other sources, other uses, and fund balances must be reported by fund, object (at the fourth level), fiscal year and amount. Expenditures must be reported as fund, function, object (at the second level), organization, fiscal year, program intent and amount. A school district must amend the official budget before exceeding a functional expenditure category, i.e., instruction, administration, etc., in the total district budget. The annual financial and compliance report should reflect the amended budget amounts on the schedule comparing budgeted and actual amounts. The requirement for filing the amended budget with TEA is satisfied when the school district files its Annual Financial and Compliance Report.
United Independent School District Fiscal Policies and Practices
In addition to state legal requirements, United ISD has established its own requirements for annual budget preparation and administration. The District’s fiscal policies dictate requirements that go beyond those required by the Texas Education Code (TEC) and
28 United Independent School District OrganizationDocument Section Title
TEA. These policies and practices include:
Fund Balance Policy
The purpose of a fund balance is to provide funds for expenditures not anticipated or included in a District’s budget or to make up for revenues anticipated but not received.
Simply stated, fund balance is defined by the following equation: Fund Balance = Assets ‐ Liabilities. Fund balance represents the difference between the fund’s total assets (cash, investments, inventories, etc.) and total liabilities (bills, etc.). Actual fund balances shall be measured as of the last day of a fiscal year (August 31) for the previous audited years. Projected fund balances, included in the current fiscal year, shall be calculated by subtracting projected expenses from forecasted revenues and either adding (surplus) or subtracting (deficit) an amount to/from a previous fund balance.
The Board recognizes the need for adequate fund balances and the role these balances play in managing the District’s overall finances.
The following are reserve policies/practices: General Fund ‐ shall maintain a balance of one month’s projected expenditures. Debt Service Fund ‐ shall maintain a minimum balance of at least 10 percent of the District’s projected annual bond payment requirement less State Aid.
The Assistant Superintendent for Business and Finance shall monitor current and projected fund balance levels. Should either current or projected fund balances fall below the minimum amounts required by this policy, he or she shall notify the Superintendent, who in turn shall notify the Board. The Board shall then make recommendations or direct the administrators to take prudent steps to raise the fund balance back to the required levels.
The Board shall approve all expenditures from fund balances. This shall normally be done in the form of adopting a budget for the fiscal year or approving a budget amendment during the year. Fund balances shall not be spent on items of a recurring nature except for extreme emergencies, and then for a period not to exceed one year.
By policy, the District may budget more expenditures than revenues provided sufficient fund balance is available to cover expenditures that are not of a recurring nature. Thus, not necessarily have to adopt a “balanced‐budget” where revenues equal expenditures.
2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 29 Document Title Organization Section
Debt Administration
The Texas Education Code (TEC) authorizes the District to issue negotiable coupon bonds to construct, acquire, or equip school buildings, or to purchase necessary sites, or to acquire or refinance property financed under a contract entered into under the Public Property Finance Act. The District is further authorized to levy and assess annual ad valorem taxes sufficient to pay the principal and interest on the bonds as they become due.
Local policy gives the Superintendent or his designee the authorization to manage the debt service operation of the District. In this capacity, the Superintendent recommends all proposed bond sales to the Board for its approval. All bond elections are held in accordance with statutory requirements, and bonds are sold, as authorized by the qualified voters of the district, on a competitive or negotiated basis under the direction of a fiscal agent selected by the Board.
There are two state statutes that govern the issuance of bonds and the levying of taxes by Texas school districts. United ISD must comply with Sections 45.001, 45.003(b)(1) and 45.003(e) of the Texas Education Code which defines school bonds into classes. The Exempt Debt or Old Bonds are bonds issued before September 1, 1992 and are exempt from the $0.50 per $100 assessed valuation test, and Non‐Exempt or New Bonds that must comply with the “0.50 Test”. The “$0.50 Test” is a calculation that is made when the bonds are issued that limits the amount of New Bonds that a district can issue to that amount of debt for New Bonds that will not cause the annual debt service tax rate to exceed $0.50 in any fiscal year that the New Bonds are outstanding. For 2012‐2013, United ISD tax rate used for comparison to this limit is $0.154860, which is well below the $0.50 limit.
There are no other statutory requirements that limit the amount of debt that a Texas school district may issue.
Investment Policy
The Superintendent or his designee serves as the investment officer of the District and invests the District funds in legally authorized and adequately secured investments. All investment transactions are executed on a delivery versus payment basis according to the following investment strategies:
Assure the safety of the invested funds of the District Maintain sufficient liquidity to provide adequate and timely working funds Attain the highest possible rate of return while providing necessary protection of
30 United Independent School District OrganizationDocument Section Title
principal consistent with District operating requirements determined by the Board Match the maturity of investment instruments to the daily cash flow requirements Diversify investments as to maturity, instruments, and financial institutions where permitted under state law Actively pursue portfolio management techniques Avoid investment speculation
A system of internal controls is established and documented in writing and includes specific procedures designating who has authority to withdraw funds. Also, it is designed to protect against losses of public funds arising from fraud, employee error, and misrepresentation by third parties, unanticipated changes in financial markets, or imprudent actions by employees and officers of the District. Controls deemed most important include:
Separation of transaction authority from accounting and recordkeeping and electronic transfer of funds. Avoidance of collusion. Custodial safekeeping. Clear delegation of authority. Written confirmation of telephone transactions. Documentation of dealer questionnaires, quotations and bids, evaluations, transactions, and rationale. Avoidance of bearer‐form securities.
Independent Audit and Financial Reporting
In accordance with Section 44.008, Texas Education Code, public school districts in Texas shall have their accounts audited annually. The audit shall be made on an organization‐wide basis, and shall involve all fund types and account groups of the school district. In addition to meeting the requirements set forth in state statutes, the audit is also designed to meet the requirements of the Federal Single Audit Act, as amended, and the related provisions of OMB Circular A‐133 “Audits of State, Local Governments, and Non‐Profit Organizations.”
Once the annual audit is completed, an Annual Financial and Compliance Report is prepared and submitted to TEA for review. The Annual Financial and Compliance Report are designed to meet the specific monitoring needs of TEA. Thus, a Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, conforming to standards of the GFOA, is also prepared to better serve the needs of the taxpayers and other financial statement users.
2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 31 Document Title Organization Section
Cash Management Practice
Cash balances are maintained daily by the District through on‐line banking. Using this system has allowed accounting personnel to minimize bank balances by only transferring into the accounts the funds necessary to cover the dollar amount of checks that have been presented to the bank each day. This keeps the low interest bearing account balances at a minimum, thus maximizing interest earnings. The District has opened up investments to all approved brokers in order to broaden the market and obtain better interest rates.
Debt Management Practice
Debt Service is a major area of cost due to the District’s building program which is primarily financed by the sale of general obligation bonds. All principal and interest payments are due on February 15th and August 15th of each year.
Basis of Accounting
The accounts of the District are organized on the basis of funds or account groups, each of which is considered to be a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund or account group are accounted for with a separate set of self‐balancing accounts that comprise its assets and other debits, liabilities, fund balances and other credits, revenues and expenditures. Government resources are allocated and are accounted for in individual funds based upon the purpose for which they are to be spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled.
The accounting and financial reporting treatment applied to a fund is determined by its measurement focus. The agency funds of the District are custodial in nature and do not involve measurement of results of operations. However, the modified accrual basis of accounting is used for the governmental and fiduciary funds. This basis of accounting recognizes revenues in the accounting period in which they become available and measurable. Expenditures are recognized in the accounting period in which the fund liability is incurred except for un‐matured interest on general long‐term debt, which is recognized when due.
The District governmental funds include: General Fund (Budgeted Annually) Debt Service Fund (Budgeted Annually) Special Revenues Fund (Not Budgeted Annually) Capital Projects Fund (Not Budgeted Annually)
32 United Independent School District OrganizationDocument Section Title
The Food Service Fund is accounted for as a proprietary fund which utilizes an accrual basis of accounting. The basis of accounting recognizes revenues when earned and expenditures are recorded when incurred.
Financial Ethics – All Trustees, employees, vendors, contractors, consultants, volunteers and any other parties who are involved in the District’s financial transactions shall act with integrity and diligence in duties involving the District’s fiscal resources.
Fixed Asset Policy ‐ This policy is established to safeguard the assets of the District by establishing perpetual inventory records and affixing inventory numbers to furniture and equipment.
For purposes of the District’s financial statements, fixed assets shall be accounted for at cost, or if the cost cannot be practicably determined, at estimated cost. Fixed assets shall include land, building, improvements, equipment and vehicles that 1) are not consumed as a result of use, and 2) shall have a useful life of a least one year.
The Superintendent and/or designee shall be responsible for establishing an accurate inventory of all school property, including land, buildings, improvements, equipment, and vehicles. Administrative personnel shall be required to take a physical count of all such property at least annually. This inventory shall be updated and accounted for in the appropriate accounting records.
BUDGET POLICIES AND DEVELOPMENT PROCEDURES
Basis of Budget
The District maintains control over operating expenditures by the establishment of an annual budget. The District’s Board of Trustees approves budgets for all funds required by the Texas Education Agency: General Fund, Debt Service Fund and Food Service Fund. The budgets are prepared on a basis consistent with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Budgets for General Fund and Debt Service are prepared using the same method of accounting as for financial reports (modified accrual). The Food Service fund budget is prepared using the accrual basis of accounting.
Budgets for Special Revenue Funds, which account for the majority of federal and state funded grants, and for the Capital Projects Funds, which accounts for the proceeds from the sale of bonds, are adopted in a project basis rather than on an annual basis.
2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 33 Document Title Organization Section
Control Structure
Budgetary control is established at the District’s management level. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure designed to ensure that the District’s assets are protected from loss, theft and misuse and to ensure that accurate accounting data is compiled to allow for the preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The internal control structure is designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that these objectives are met.
The District’s internal control structure includes budgetary, as well as, accounting controls. The objective of the budgetary controls is to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual appropriated budget approved by the Board. The level of budgetary control, the level at which expenditures cannot legally exceed the appropriated budget, is established at the function level within each fund group. Each budget is controlled by the Accounting Department. The District utilizes an encumbrance accounting system to facilitate budgetary control.
As a recipient of state and federal financial assistance, the District is also responsible for maintaining an adequate internal control structure to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations related to this assistance. This internal control structure is subject to periodic evaluation by Management, The District’s Internal Audit Department and independent auditors.
Budget Amendments
The budget can be amended at the function and fund level, with the approval of a majority of the members of the Board. All amendments are presented at the regular Board meetings. Each amendment must have Board approval and be made part of the official Board minutes.
BUDGET DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
Development of a budget that will allocate available resources in a manner that will accomplish district and campus priority goals in the most efficient and effective manner possible is the primary goal of the budget process. United Independent School District continues in its commitment to implement decentralized decision‐making as recommended by the State Legislature, the State Board of Education and the Texas Education Agency. Therefore, each campus leader and department head is a budget manager and is responsible for allocating available resources so that appropriate goals and objectives are addressed. The budget development process includes appropriate
34 United Independent School District OrganizationDocument Section Title input from campus and department staff as well as from community members. Community member input comes from the individuals on each of the District’s Site Based Decision Making Committees and during the public hearings that are held during the budget process. Benefits from input from these sources include:
Improved community involvement Increased staff satisfaction Improved communication and information flow Consensus‐based, effective decisions Increased flexibility in the allocation of fiscal resources Coordination of regular and special population program components
The budget development process is comprised of six major phases: planning, formulation & submission, review & coordination, adoption, monitoring and evaluation.
Planning
Budget planning is essential in the development of an effective organization budget. Planning involves defining the goals and objectives needed to achieve the District’s overall mission of providing a complete and effective education to the students of United Independent School District. The goals and objectives are defined by campuses in their approved Campus Improvement Plans. Copies of the Campus Improvement Plans are submitted as part of the documentation required during the budget process.
Department heads give thought to goals and objectives their department hopes to achieve as a support function to the instructional function of the District. Allocations of resources coincide with achieving these goals and objectives. Copies of these goals and objectives are submitted as part of the documentation required during the budget process.
A necessary step in the planning process is the development of student enrollment projections. Enrollment projections are used to determine initial allocations and staffing needs. These projections also provide a basis for examining anticipated changes in funding levels.
The Division of Finance develops a Budget Calendar that establishes dates that should be met in order to ensure meeting state mandated deadlines.

Formulation and Submission ‐ The District uses a mix of both line‐item and site‐ based/line‐item budgetary approaches to provide campuses and departments with a standard allocation based on student enrollment and historical expenditures, respectively.
The departments employ a line‐item budget approach to preparing department budgets. The line‐item budget formulation develops a customer‐driven program that optimizes limited resources and increases cost efficiency while maintaining quality education and effective support systems.
For campuses, the district wide site‐based decision‐making (SBDM) process is used. SBDM emphasizes stakeholder involvement in educational planning and decision‐ making process.
Using the principles of line‐item budgeting, department and campus administrators establish budget priorities, aligning personnel and non‐personnel funding sources with local educational needs as identified in the Campus Improvement Plans (CIP), District Improvement Plan (DIP) and the Superintendent’s Goals.
Organizations submit detailed budget preparation forms outlining the mission and goals of the campus/departments while providing justification for funds expected to be spent on capital outlay, contracted services, and out‐of district travel. A Supplemental Resource Request form is submitted when additional funds are being requested beyond allocations assigned.
Review and Coordination ‐ The Division of Finance reviews budgets for accuracy and coordination with the District’s stated priorities for the year.
The emphasis for budget development is always to support the level budget with current programs and provide funding for each department’s goals in accordance with the Superintendent’s stated goals. The Assistant Superintendent for Business and Finance, along with senior members, will review each request for modifications to current programs and funding individually.
38 United Independent School District OrganizationDocument Section Title
Adoption ‐ A formal meeting of the Board must be called for the purpose of adopting the proposed budget. Ten days prior to holding this meeting, a public notice must be given to allow citizen participation. Prior to September 1, the Board legally adopts the budget. Once approved, the budget must be filed with the Texas Education Agency.
The approved budget reflects the programmatic intent and the priorities of the Board and will serve as the financial operating plan for the District for the period of the Budget. The Superintendent is responsible for the management of the District consistent with the adopted budget.
Monitoring ‐ At any level of the administration, each budget manager has the primary responsibility for budget planning and management to ensure all uses and expenditures of funds are lawful and consistent with the Board’s programmatic and budgetary intent. A budget transfer is required when a campus/department requests the transfer of funds within the same function. A budget amendment is processed when a request to transfer funds between different functions. Budget amendments require the approval of the Board of Trustees if it is an Operating Account. Federal Funds do not require board approval.
Evaluation ‐ Evaluation is fundamental to the successful implementation of site‐ based/programs‐based budgeting: therefore, the Division of Finance evaluates all suggested improvements to the budget process. This input will be used to streamline the budget process, and the result will be a system of greater efficiency and increased flexibility.
BUDGETARY POLICIES Revenue Projections
In order to meet the future needs of the District, administrators should forecast the amount of resources or revenues available. Therefore, projection of revenue from the three (3) major sources of funding Local, State, and Federal should be estimated and monitored constantly. The table displays the district revenue for the past five years.
2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 39 Document Title Organization Section
Local Revenues typically consist of funds generated locally, the major contributor being local property taxes. Factors taken into account include assessed property values, property value growth/decline rates, applicable tax rates, historical collection rates, applicable state wealth per student limitations, state mandated tax rate rollback thresholds, and delinquent tax collections. Other examples of local revenue include penalty and interest on delinquent taxes, interest income generated by the District’s investment activities and County Available funds.
In fiscal year 2012‐2013 property taxes are estimated to generate $105.8 million of the District’s general fund revenue. The District has experienced significant growth in this category over the last four years. Due to the substantial growth in taxable values over the past 4 years, local revenues overall have increased.

Investment Interest revenue source reflects interest earned on District funds until expended by the District. Two factors which determine investment income are interest rates and cash balances available for investment. Income from investments is expected at $175,000 for 2012‐13. A consistent decline in interest rates has lowered the District’s investment income based on the changes in the economic climate. Interests rates have changed dramatically over the past five years and are projected to slightly decrease.

State Revenues traditionally consist of funds received as a result of the state funding calculation formula. The tool that plays a major part in the estimation of this type of resource is the state provided “Summary of Finances” which takes into account several components. These components include such things as student enrollment, enrollment population classifications, allotment weights, student attendance, weighted average daily attendance, free and reduced lunch participation, as well as, all of the Local Revenue tax efforts.

In 2012‐2013, United ISD projects to receive $169,856,194 for the General Fund in State Revenues. These revenues include 1) Tier I State Aid—Basic Allotment which was created for the purpose of funding the basic program, 2) Tier II State Aid—Basic Program Enrichment which was created to enrich the basic program, and 3) House Bill I—Additional Aid. Additional aid is projected to be given for the 2012‐2013 fiscal year to the school district for Chapter 46 Existing Debt Allotment (EDA) in the amount of $4,682,757 and Instructional Facilities Allotment (IFA) in the amount of $907,917. These programs were created to assist school districts with the payment of debt.
The main assumption used in calculating state revenues is projected student enrollment. Past student growth and attendance rates are used to project part of the state revenues.
Federal Revenues involve a variety of amounts and sources. These sources generally are federally distributed funds which can flow through the district, Region Education Centers, Texas Education Agency (TEA), or directly from the federal source. Examples of this type of funding include National School Lunch and Breakfast Program reimbursements, Title I programs, federal special education programs, and indirect costs recovered by the District as a result of administering certain types of federal
2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 41 Document Title Organization Section programs. In 2012‐2013, United ISD is projected to receive $2,365,000 for the General Fund in Federal Revenues. For most federal programs, projected revenues can be based on historical revenues received per grant.

Expenditure Projections
In order to support the mission, goals and objectives of the District, administrators should forecast the operating costs for all funds necessary to achieve those intents. These budgetary allocations should project costs for the following major expenditure categories as prescribed by TEA’s Financial Accountability System Resource Guide:
Payroll Costs (6100) Professional & Contracted Services Costs (6200) Supplies & Materials Costs (6300) Other Operating Costs (6400) Debt Service Costs (6500) Capital Outlay Costs (6600)
Payroll costs are the costs of employee salaries and benefits. With more than 5,800 employees in the District, these costs make‐up more than 85% of the annual general operating expenditures. As such, staffing is determined by guidelines based primarily upon enrollment projections and applicable state mandates concerning class size, minimum salaries, etc. Staffing levels are monitored on a constant basis by campus leaders and department heads. These costs, with the exception of substitutes used during staff development, extra‐duty pay, and overtime, will be calculated by the Division of Finance. The funding for the staff development substitutes, extra‐duty pay, and overtime will be funded through the allocations provided to each campus and department. Requests for additional staffing units should be submitted in writing by each campus leader and department head along with a detailed justification for the request.
42 United Independent School District OrganizationDocument Section Title
Professional & Contracted Services, Supplies & Materials, and Other Operating Costs These are typically variable and miscellaneous expenditures. Funding levels for these types of expenditures are based on projected student enrollment, historical information, or at the discretion of the campus leader or department head. Expenditures classified under these object codes that are calculated and funded on a district‐wide basis include utilities, insurance, copier rentals and maintenance costs. All other appropriations for these expenditures are at the discretion of the campus/ department head.
Debt Service costs are usually repayment of financed debt and should be based upon debt repayment schedules when bonds or other debt is issued. The appropriation of this type of expenditure is very limited or non‐existent at the school or department levels. Examples of expenditures that could be charged to a campus or department include lease/purchase payments. It is important to note that any multi‐year lease/ purchase contract can only be executed by the Superintendent since payments of this nature overlap into future fiscal years.
Capital Outlay costs include items that are inventoried and become part of the district’s fixed assets group such as furniture, audio‐visual equipment, computer equipment and other equipment. In order to provide for improved pricing of these items and ensure full compliance with state and federal mandated purchasing requirements, a detailed listing of all capital items is requested from all budget managers. An individual campus or department submits the proper “Capital Outlay Justification” form. All capital outlay requests are prioritized by campus and department leaders, justified, and included with the submission of budget requests.
LONG TERM FINANCIAL STRATEGIES
The following financial forecasts are used to determine the impact of current financial decisions on subsequent fiscal years. Review and evaluation of these plans, in conjunction with the budget development process, ensures that the short‐term financial decisions are made only after consideration of the long‐term consequences.
Future revenue projections were made based on the state funding model in accordance with HB 1 adopted during a State’s legislative session.
General and Debt Service Forecasts
Projection Model Summary Throughout this model we projected future revenue and expenditures by reviewing past trends and revenue projections based on current information from the State Legislators.
2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 43 Document Title Organization Section
Significant Revenue Trends: 1. If the future follows the past trends, then our taxable values will continue to increase. 2. Based on past history, our collection percentages will remain at approximately 96.5% or more. 3. Federal revenue sources are expected to decrease slightly under current levels. 4. Unless current law changes, State sources of revenue will decrease if our taxable values remain at current levels.
Projected Expenditures: 1. If the current economic hardships continue, then the District will need to implement expenditure reduction plans in order to save employee positions. 2. Based on current trends, the payroll expenditures are expected to decrease less than 1%. 3. Non‐payroll costs are projected to also use a rate of reduction of about 1%. 4. Estimates of Debt Service expenditures (6500) come from our existing General Operating Fund Future Tax Rate Required for Outstanding Debt Schedule (pg 75) and from the Total Debt Service Schedule for Future Years (pg 85). 5. External economic factors such as increased fuel and material costs will also affect District finances.
We will discuss each component of the projection model in the following section.
Projection Model Components General Fund Summary Model: The summary is a composite of all the calculations performed on each of the other worksheets described in this section. This model consolidates enrollment projections, taxable value estimates, State Aid estimates, and many other factors into a single comprehensive financial plan, and calculates the effect on the projected tax rate for each subsequent fiscal year.
Projected Enrollment Worksheet: Enrollment projections are one of the most significant factors in the budget development and long‐range financial planning process. Enrollment projections are designed to predict the student enrollment of the District based on geographic data, student data, migration data, and historical data of student populations. The district also uses a third party demographic study to produce enrollment projections.
Projected Tax Collections: This worksheet estimates the amount of tax revenue to be generated from the levy by attempting to predict taxable values, collection rates, tax rates, and delinquent tax collections.
44 United Independent School District OrganizationDocument Section Title
Debt Service Fund Summary Model: The Debt Service Fund Summary included here is based on currently known debt. The most critical factor in calculating Debt Service budgets is our debt service requirements for each fiscal year. The amount of requirements set the amount of taxes needed to be collected to pay down the bonds annually. United ISD qualifies for State facility funding assistance such as the Instructional Facility Allotment and Existing Debt Allotment to relieve the debt requirements for all bonds.
Projected Debt Service Tax Collections: This worksheet estimates the amount of tax revenue to be generated from the tax levy by attempting to predict taxable values, collection rates, tax rates, and delinquent tax collections.
Debt Service Schedule: Included in this section is the impact on the District of future bond sales. All future debt is projected to be funded by local property taxes.
Student Projections
Since student enrollment drives many budgetary decisions, it is crucial that the District project the future student population as accurately as possible. For this purpose, a Planning Department within the District’s Support Service area works in conjunction with a demographer contracted by the District to assess the anticipated student population growth that the District expects for the next few years. This study will be used to identify future construction needs of the District, as well.
Bond Program Plan
For the school year 2012‐2013, United ISD is projected to have 42,641 students and is expected to reach a student population of 43,718 by 2018. Faced with the challenge of providing a quality education for an increasing number of students, the Board of Trustees will be looking into the possibility of holding a bond election in either May or November 2013. For past bond elections, the Board has invited the community members to form a Blue Ribbon Committee to explore options for dealing with this growth. The Blue Ribbon Committee is usually composed of parents, District patrons and community members appointed by the United ISD Board of Trustees. The Blue Ribbon Committee would determine both short term and long term facility needs for the District.
United Independent School District is still experiencing some growth throughout the District and will continue to meet with the Blue Ribbon Committee to look at other options until another bond election can be successfully approved by the voters.

Pay‐As‐You‐Go Maintenance Plan
The District has a Pay‐As‐You‐Go Maintenance Plan. This plan is established by the District to address any renovations not funded through a bond program. Funding for this program is generated through the General Operating Fund. The District establishes a budget in the beginning of the fiscal year. The Facilities Department looks at any issues that need to be addressed and focuses primarily on the District’s most urgent concerns, fire and life safety, structural integrity, and overcrowding. These expenditures are categorized as routine since they deal with general facility maintenance and upkeep. During the year, the District will reevaluate and adjust the budget for additional projects that arise before the summer break. The following is a list of projects tentatively scheduled for fiscal year 2012‐2013:
Campus Project Description Cost Estimate
Gutierrez Elementary Replace all classroom HVAC units$ 300,000 Salinas Elementary Electrical switch gear replacement 100,000 Curriculum & Instruction Structure Reinforcement 45,000 Lyndon B. Johnson High School Double doors (2 sets) 35,000 SAC ‐ Auditorium Handrails (upgrades) 20,000 TOTAL $ 500,000
Other Routine Capital Projects
The District has other routine projects that are necessary to continue services for the children of the District. Another project is the movement of portable buildings. Since the Bond program has been completed, the portable cost has been reduced to $225,000. Portables will be moved within the District as needs change at each campus. The District also funds a Furniture Replacement Plan for $150,000. This plan evaluates the conditions of the furniture in some of the District’s older campuses.
Impact on General Operating Budget
The impact on the General Operating Budget are as follows: The elevator at the SAC will require maintenance costs that are already included with the Districts regular operations. The parking lot will have no impact the budget but will be reviewed annually for quality control. The restrooms at Trautmann Elementary will have no impact on the budget since it was a renovation. The District budget already included the supplies necessary to maintain the bathrooms.
50 United Independent School District Organization Section
The metal canopies will have no impact on the budget except. The canopies will be reviewed annually for quality control. The HVAC units will have no impact on the budget since the maintenance costs are already incorporated in the budget. The Field House had an impact on the budget of $195,962 to purchase weight equipment, tables, chairs, and to setup the wiring to access the District’s Technology Information. The Tennis Courts will have no impact on the budget since the athletic department budget includes supplies for the courts. The Track and Soccer Fields will have no impact on the budget since the athletic department maintains all Athletic properties. The Marching Pads will have no impact on the budget since the District maintains all properties.
The District has completed its bond program in the school year and will be looking into the possibility of holding a bond election in either May or November 2013.
Capital Budget Adjustments
At various board meetings, the Board of Trustees approved $31,813,522 to be allocated for additional facility projects. The Board was presented supplementary projects to address various needs at the campuses as well as for the departments.
The following adjustments were approved by the Board of Education as of August 31, 2012:
An incremental budget increase of $8,356,325 was made to appropriate the Webb County Available Funds to complete construction projects that included Field Houses, Tennis Courts, Track/Soccer Field, and Marching Pads. An incremental budget increase of $8,100,000 for the completion of a Warehouse, Transportation Compound, the construction of a road on UISD property, and to complete minor QSCB projects. An incremental budget increase of $360,000 for Road and Utility Improvements. An incremental budget increase of $3,900,000 for completion of Maintenance Projects. An incremental budget increase of $4,487,234 from the Webb County Available Funds to complete construction projects. An incremental budget increase of $409,963 to appropriate the remaining balance of the Webb County Available Funds.

Current Maintenance Projects
The District issued a Qualified School Construction Bond (QSCB) in 2009 for some deferred maintenance projects that were included in the District’s Long‐Range Facilities Master Plan. The QSCB is a federal credit program that school districts can use to save money on school construction, rehabilitation or repair projects. For school districts, “bond” may be in the form of a bond, lease purchase, time warrant or maintenance notes. The District issued, maintenance tax notes to fund over $17 million in repairs and rehabilitation projects throughout the District. On the following page is a list of the maintenance projects.

Summary
Summary
Financial Section
Government Fund Types
The Governmental Funds consist of four governmental fund groups (General, Debt Service, Capital Projects and Special Revenue) that account for the acquisition, use and balances of expendable financial resources and related liabilities as required by law or rule.
All Funds
Governmental Proprietary Fund Fund Types Types
Special Revenue Debt Service General Fund Enterprise Fund Fund Fund
Food Service
Each fund is budgeted on a modified accrual basis. The modified accrual basis of accounting recognizes revenues in the accounting period in which they become both measurable and available. It recognizes expenditures in the accounting period in which the fund liability is incurred, if measurable. Un‐matured interest and principal on long term debt is recognized when due. The District considers all revenues available if they are collectible within 60 days after year end.
Major Funds Major funds represent the significant activities of the District and basically include any fund whose revenues or expenditures, excluding other financing sources and uses, constitute more than 10% of the revenues or expenditures of the appropriated budget. The breakdown of the District’s fund structure is as follows:
Major Governmental Fund Types The General Fund is a governmental fund type and is the District’s operating fund. It is used to account for all financial transactions resulting from operations of ongoing organizations and activities from a variety of revenue sources for which fund balance is
58 United Independent School District Financial Section controlled by and retained for the use of the local education agency. This is a budgeted fund and is accounted for on a modified accrual basis.
The Debt Service Fund is a governmental fund type and is used to account for the accumulation of resources for, and the payment of bonded debt principal and interest. The main source of revenue for debt service is the apportionment of local property taxes. This is a budgeted fund and is accounted for on a modified accrual basis.
Major Enterprise Fund The Food Service Fund is an Enterprise Fund used to account for the District’s Food Service operations. The Food Service fund is a budgeted fund and is the District’s only Enterprise Fund.
Non‐major Governmental Fund Type The Special Revenue Fund is a governmental fund type used to account for the majority of federal and state funded grants which are legally restricted to expenditures for specific purposes by a grantor. Generally, unused balances are returned to the grantor at the close of specified project periods.
Budget Requirements with the Fund Types
United ISD, as required by the Texas Education Agency (TEA), has prepared and adopted a budget for the General Fund, the Debt Service Fund and the Food Service Fund. These budgets are approved annually by the Board of Trustees and included in the official district budget.
The budgets for the three appropriated funds are presented in this document in total and individually. The budgets for Special Revenue Funds and Proprietary Funds do not require approval of the Board of Trustees.

GENERAL FUND
Description of Fund
The General Fund is a governmental fund type and is the District’s operating fund. It is used to account for all financial transactions except those required to be accounted for in another fund. This is a budgeted fund and any fund balances are considered as resources available for current operations. General Fund primary revenue sources include local property taxes and state funding. The District's General Fund includes state distributed federal funds and direct federal funds not required to be included in the Special Revenue Funds. This fund is accounted for on a modified accrual basis.
Major Revenues and Assumptions
General Fund Revenues come from three sources: local funds, primarily tax revenues, and state and federal funds.
Fiscal year 2011‐2012: Total actual revenues for the General Fund were $315,144,827.
Fiscal year 2012‐2013: Total revenues for the General Fund are $293,592,745. Teacher Retirement System payments are not included in the budgeted revenues. The net cash revenues for the District are about $9 million less than last year. The decrease in revenues is attributed to the decrease in State funding based on the 82nd Legislature, interest rates are still declining, and a decrease to Medicaid reimbursements.

DEBT SERVICE
Description of Fund
The Debt Service Fund is a governmental fund type and is used to account for the accumulation of resources for, and the payment of bonded debt principal and interest. The primary revenue sources are local property taxes levied specifically for debt service and state assistance program for facility funding. The fund balance of this fund represents amounts that will be used for retirement of bonds and payment of interest in the future. The Debt Service Fund is a budgeted fund.
Bonded Debt Obligations
The United Independent School District has experienced unprecedented growth over the last nineteen years. The student enrollment in 1986 peaked at 7,698 students and grew in twenty years to over 19,777 in 1996; this year, the District anticipates educating over 42,641 students.
This extraordinary growth in turn has created a demand for new school facilities throughout the District’s 2,448 square miles. Financing these new facilities has been accomplished through the issuance of Unlimited Tax Bonds and the issuance of Public Property Financial Contractual Obligations.
Bond Authorizations and Issuances
On November 22, 2003, voters of the district authorized $142,000,000 in Unlimited Tax School Building Bonds. As of August 31, 2005 all of the authorized bonds were issued. The majority of the money was for new construction and additions/renovations to existing schools and other facilities. The other part of the proposal was for instructional technology which includes network wiring/infrastructure and additional equipment designed to aid students and teachers in the learning process. The interest rates on the bonds range from 2.00% to 4.55% and the final maturity is on August 15, 2035. Debt service payments are scheduled semiannually which began February 15, 2004.
The last five issues of tax‐supported debt had the following bond ratings from Standards & Poor’s Rating Services and Moody’s Investors Services:

However, since the District received conditional approval from the Texas Education Agency for all the Bonds to be guaranteed under the Texas Permanent School Fund guarantee, Standard’s & Poor, Moody’s, and Fitch also rated the bonds “AAA”, “Aaa”, and “AAA” respectively, based upon the Permanent School Fund Guarantee.
The outstanding bonded debt for the District as of August 31, 2012 is $236,568,109. Maturity dates for these bonds extend to the year 2035.
Debt Management
The District’s primary objective in debt management is to keep the level of indebtedness within available resources and it is imperative to keep the debt within the legal debt limitation established by Senate Bill 1, at a minimum cost to the taxpayer.
Under Senate Bill 1, a Texas school district is able to issue unlimited tax bonds, provided that the district demonstrates their projected ability to pay such bonds plus the District’s outstanding bonds (other than bonds authorized by an election held on or before April 1, 1991 and issued before September 1, 1992, or bonds issued to refund such bonds) at a debt service rate of not more than $0.50 per $100 per assessed valuation. The District’s tax rate used for comparison to this limit is $0.154860, which is well below the $0.50 limit.
Major Revenues and Assumptions
Debt Service Fund revenue sources come from two sources: local funds and state funds.
Fiscal year 2011‐2012: Total revenues for the Debt Service are $22,670,150. This District used $2.7 million from the Webb County Available Funds.
Fiscal year 2012‐2013: Total estimated revenues for the Debt Service are $22,905,725. The district plans to use $2.9 million from fund balance to help pay for the current year debt.
Local Funds
Property Taxes: Total assessed valuation is $10,296,645,310 with a current debt service
2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 79 Financial Section rate of $ 0.154860. The debt service rate is the same as 2011 $0.154860 per $100 per assessed valuation.
Fiscal year 2011‐2012: The District budgeted 100% of the tax levy for the Debt Service, and estimated to collect $15,461,709. Actual collections were at $16,217,428 (including prior delinquent collections).
Fiscal year 2012‐2013: The District will budget 100% of the estimated tax levy. It is anticipated that the district will experience growth in new construction, mineral values, and reappraisals. The debt service total tax collection is estimated at $17,315,051.
Prior Year Taxes and Other Revenues Related to Taxes (Penalty & Interest): The District takes a very conservative approach in projecting revenue and does not budget other revenue related to taxes to collect in the debt service fund. In fiscal year 2011‐2012, however, $758,283 was collected in the debt service fund.
Interest Earnings: The District continues to invest all available cash into secure liquid transactions. The District currently invests any cash not available for extended investment in the TASB Investment Pool and is withdrawn as needed.
Fiscal year 2011‐2012: The District collected $32,586 in interest earnings, which is less than was budgeted in the amount of $360,000.
Fiscal year 2012‐2013: The District expects to continue to invest all of its available cash into liquid transactions. The District will continue placing short‐term cash balances in the TASB Investment Pools, and Certificates of Deposit and it projects to utilize these funds to maximize its returns. The District has budgeted total interest earnings of $360,000.
State Revenue
The system consists of three tiers. The first two Foundation Program Tiers, I and II, are for the operating expenses of the District and go into the General Fund. The Tier III Allotment or Existing Debt Allotment (EDA), which was introduced in 1999‐2000, provides financial assistance for certain outstanding debt issued by school districts to produce a guaranteed yield of $35.00 in revenue per student per penny of debt service tax levy (limited to $0.12 of equalized debt service tax rate).
The Instructional Facilities Assistance (IFA) became effective September 1, 1997. The IFA guarantees each school district a specific amount per student ($35) in state and local
80 United Independent School District Financial Section funds for each cent of tax effort to pay principal and interest on eligible Obligations issued to construct, acquire, renovate, or improve instructional facilities. To receive an IFA, a school district must apply to the State Commissioner of Education before issuing the Obligations to be paid with State assistance.
As of August 31, 2004 United I.S.D. had been approved to receive IFA for the Unlimited Tax Bonds, Series 1998, the Unlimited Tax Bonds, Series 1999, the Unlimited Tax Bonds, Series 2000, the Unlimited Tax Bonds, and the Unlimited Tax Bonds Series 2001.
Fiscal year 2011‐2012: EDA received from the state was $5,740,525 and IFA was $914,585 for a total of $6,655,110.
Fiscal year 2012‐2013: The budgeted amount for EDA $4,682,757 and for IFA is $907,917 for a total of $5,590,674.
Debt Service Expenditures
In 2011‐2012, the District paid $16,865,000 for the payment of bond principal, $9,104,290 in interest, and $509,441 for bond related fees and other refinancing services.
The expenditure budget for 2012‐2013 consists of the following amounts: $16,990,000 for bond principal payments, $8,819,241 for bond interest payments, and $8,000 for agent fees. Detailed debt service requirements for future years are located on page 85 in this section.
Historically, the District’s administration and Board have followed the recommendations of our financial advisors and structured debt with a principal retirement schedule that allows the District to continue to issue bonds without increasing the debt service tax rate exorbitantly. When compared to other “fast growth” districts in the State of Texas, United ISD has a lower than average debt service tax rate and a lower debt per student amount as outlined on pages 86‐87 in this section.
Future Debt Needs
A long‐range facility master plan developed by administration includes a projected district‐wide enrollment increase of 3,000 students over the next four years. The District is projected to be at 43,718 students in the year 2018.
2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 81 Financial Section
Future Debt Limit
Since no new debt is expected in the foreseeable future, the only increase to the debt tax rate will be made according to the payments listed in the debt schedule. The District will take advantage of any refinancing in order to reduce interest payments and maximize the EDA.

UNITED INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT FOOD SERVICE DEPARTMENT
VISION: The vision of United I.S.D. Food Service Department is to provide advanced, state ‐of‐the‐art technology, equipment, and procedures so that the most efficient and productive methods will be employed in the preparation, service and resulting product quality of the meals served to the students.
MISSION: The Mission of United I.S.D. Food Service Department is to provide a variety of healthy, well balanced and nutritious meals that are flavorful, attractive, will enhance the academic scores, and contribute in maintaining a less stressful environment for the students.
PURPOSE: The purpose of United I.S.D. Food Service Department is to provide healthy, nutritious meals to the students.
MOTTO: FOOD ‐ CAN’T LEARN WITHOUT IT.
DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM: Although there are many concepts incorporated into the preparation and serving of meals to the students at United I.S.D., the most common way to describe it is as the “Cook‐Chill” method. Under the Cook‐Chill method, many of the hot meals are prepared in a central facility under controlled conditions of recipe, temperature, sanitation, etc., so that all meals served are uniform in flavor and quality. It is then chilled and stored under refrigerated conditions until the meal is re‐thermalized and served on site to the students.
Under these controlled conditions, the students receive a hot meal that is ultimately prepared on site providing for point‐of‐service control of the temperature, appearance and flavor of the meal.

Summary
Financial Section
SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS
Special Revenue Funds are used to account for resources restricted to, or designated for, specific purposes by a grantor. Federal financial assistance often is accounted for in a Special Revenue Fund. In most Special Revenue funds, unused balances are recorded as deferred revenue and carried forward to the succeeding fiscal year, provided the amount carried forward is within the limits established by the grantor. In some cases, the unused balances are returned to the grantor at the close of specified project periods. The District budgets for Special Revenue Funds as grants are awarded by the various grantees.

FORM OF GOVERNMENT
The District Board of Trustees (Board) derives its legal status from the Constitution of the State of Texas and from the Texas Education Code, as passed and amended by the Legislature of Texas.
The Board is the level of government that has oversight responsibility and control over all activities related to public education in the United Independent School District. The Board receives funding from local, state and federal source entities. However, the District is not included in any other governmental “reporting entity” as defined in the Codification of Governmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards issued by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB).
The seven trustees of the Board are elected under a single‐member district plan. After each census is taken, the Board of Trustees apportions the school district into seven areas of similar population. These are called school board member (trustee) areas. Trustees are elected to represent these seven areas for three‐year terms.
Serving without compensation, Board members establish the policies by which schools operate. In carrying out the task of setting policy, the board identifies needs and establishes priorities for the school system, allocates financial and human resources among the priority areas and evaluates school performance.
The board is empowered to provide tax monies for maintenance and operation of the schools and to submit bond issues to be voted on by the citizens of the District for construction of school facilities. The board also elects the Superintendent as Chief Instructional and Executive Officer of the District.
The Superintendent structures the District’s organization in a manner that will allow ample leadership and support at all levels of the District by applying the following: . Design system improvement strategies. . Stay current on educational research. . Design, implement incentive structures for schools, principals, and teachers. . Recruit and evaluate principals/district administrative staff. . Provide professional development consistent with improvement strategy. . Allocate system resources toward instruction. . Buffer non‐instructional issues from principals, teachers. . Serve as executive officer and advisor to the board of education. . Coordinate board agenda and board reports. . Lead and direct district operations. . Observe and evaluate district activities and ongoing programs. . Make final recommendations regarding all personnel to the board. . Develop annual goals and progress reports. . Oversee planning for future sites and building programs. . Interpret school programs to parents, community organizations and the media.

GEOGRAPHY
Laredo, Texas is 150 miles West of the deep water port of Corpus Christi: 150 miles North of highly industrialized Monterrey, Mexico; 150 miles South of San Antonio, Texas. It is located on the north bank of the historical Rio Grande River (or Rio Bravo, as it is known in Mexico). It is unique because it is the only city to operate international bridges between two Mexican states. The city presently maintains three border crossings with the Mexican State of Tamaulipas at Nuevo Laredo, and one with the Mexican State of Nuevo León at Colombia. A fifth bridge is currently being planned along the Tamualipas border. Laredo is the U.S. principal port of entry into Mexico, located on the Pan American Highway that stretches from Canada into Central and South America. The City of Laredo is the largest city in the County of Webb. Webb County also borders the State of Nuevo Leon and the State of Coahuila, Mexico which is northwest of the City of Laredo.
Weather
The winters average 71ºF maximum and 46ºF minimum and are usually lovely and mild, but the summer temperatures are very intense, often above 100 degrees. Summer temperatures average at 98ºF maximum and 73ºF minimum. Spring temperatures for the City of Laredo average at 89ºF maximum and 54ºF minimum. May and September are the wettest months, and any time not‐summer makes for a good desert experience. On average, there are 179 days
2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 107 Document Title Information Section out of the year that exceed 90ºF weather and 14 days that fall below 32ºF. The average annual precipitation is 19 inches, and the annual average humidity is 62%.

COMMUNITY PROFILE
History
Laredo was founded on the north bank of the Río Grande on May 15, 1755, when Captain Tomás Sánchez, with three families, was granted permission to settle 15 leagues of land near an Indian ford on the Río Grande. Operated as a family rancho, the Sánchez estate ran cattle, sheep, goats, horses, mules and oxen. In 1767, the city was laid out, and in the years to follow, ranching became the sustenance of the colony.
In 1845, the annexation of Texas by the United States led to the declaration of war against Mexico. Shortly after the fall of Mexico, the Río Grande was declared the boundary between the United States and Mexico. Under the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, Laredo officially became part of Texas. Mexicans who wanted to retain their citizenship moved across the river. This area previously settled as part of Laredo was named Nuevo Laredo in 1848. An estimated 120 refugee families planted their roots and grew to a population of around 2,000 in the 1870s.
Known today as the city under seven flags, Laredo has emerged as the principal port of entry into Mexico. As the second fastest growing city in the nation, this border metropolis has greatly benefited from the well‐planned, historic "Streets of Laredo," and its urban core continues to be reinvigorated as commercial areas and neighborhoods make the "Gateway City" their home.
Healthcare

Culture Laredo has celebrated George Washington’s Birthday for over 100 years. Washington’s Birthday Celebration (WBCA) is an almost month long held event. It was founded in 1898 by the Improved Order of the Red Men, local chapter Yaqui Tribe #59. It is the largest celebration of its kind in the United States with approximately 400,000 attendees annually. The first celebration was a phenomenal success and its success and popularity grew rapidly and in 1923 it received its state charter. In 1924, the Celebration featured its first Colonial Pageant, which
2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 111 Document Title Information Section featured thirteen young girls from Laredo, representing the thirteen original colonies. The celebration includes parades, a carnival, an air show, fireworks, live concerts and a city‐wide prom during which many of Laredo's elite dress very nicely. One of its main events, the Jalapeño Festival, has recently been named one of the United States' top 10 eating festivals due to its Jalapeño Eating Contest. The WBCA has become a Laredo institution, with its history closely tied to the history of the community.
Jamboozie is another event held in late January in downtown Laredo as part of the Washington Birthday Celebrations. As somewhat of an imitation of New Orlean's Mardi Gras, the Jamboozie is known to be a colorful event, with many people dressed in beads and masks and sometimes flamboyant outfits. Besides many concession stands and up to four stages that feature local and regional bands (mostly alternative rock, classic rock and Spanish music), there are also several bars along the proximity that are open.

One of Laredo’s oldest historical site is the Republic of the Rio Grande Capitol Building Museum which is located in the downtown historical district next to the historical La Posada Hotel. It was once the Republic of the Rio Grande Capitol building now showcases memorabilia from the short lived Republic of the Rio Grande. It displays pictures, books, and furniture from the 19th century Laredo area. It offers guided tours for school age children and adults year‐round. Because of this Republic, Laredo had flown seven flags instead of the traditional Six Flags over Texas.
The Laredo Center for the Arts is located in historic downtown Laredo. The building houses three galleries: the Goodman Gallery, the Laredo Art League Gallery and the Lilia G. Martinez Gallery. The Center for the Arts, located in the former City Hall offices known as the Mercado, displays regional artwork and provides community events for children and adults.

BUDGET AND DATA SUMMARY
Sources of Information: The data reported for the years 2010 through 2012 were obtained from the Academic Excellence Indicator System (AEIS) Report for those respective years. The data obtained for fiscal year 2013 was obtained from the U.I.S.D. Human Resources Department.
The budget data presented for the years 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 include all Operating Fund expenditures.
Personnel Allocations: Personnel allocations have steadily increased between fiscal years 2008 through 2011. The major personnel increase during this five‐year time period had been for additional teachers. This upward trend in personnel is likely to continue since the District is projected to grow at a steady rate through the 2012‐13 fiscal year. This information is presented through FTE’s.
Teacher Data: For the 2012‐13 fiscal year the teaching staff of the District was primarily Hispanic‐ American 93.6%. The remaining staff consisted of Whites 4.6%, American Indian 0.1%, African American 0.2% and Asian 1.0%. Of these professionals, 81.5% hold a Bachelors Degree, 17.4% hold a Masters, and 0.2% hold a Doctoral Degree.
Student Data: The student population of the District in 2010‐11 was primarily Hispanic American (98.2%). The remaining population consisted of White Americans (1.2%), African Americans (0.1%), American Indian (0.1%) and Asian (0.3%).
Approximately seven (75.9%) of every ten students are economically disadvantaged, and one (42.4%) of every two students is Limited English Proficient (LEP) as identified by the Language Proficiency Assessment Committee (LPAC) according to criteria outlined in the Texas Administrative Code. These two factors pose major challenges in meeting the educational needs of all district students. Notwithstanding, criterion‐referenced (TAKS) test scores have shown that the District has fared relatively well in combating the adverse impact of these two factors.
Accountability Ratings:
For the 2002‐03 school year, the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) test was implemented as mandated by Senate Bill 103 established by the 76th Texas Legislature in 1999. This new assessment was directly aligned with the state‐mandated Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) curriculum which outlines what all students are expected to know and be able to do at different levels of their education. For the first year of implementation, no accountability rating was assessed to any campus.
The TAKS indicator is the percent of students who scored high enough to meet the standard to past the test. This is calculated as the number of students who met the TAKS student passing standard divided by the number tested. Results for each subject area are evaluated separately to determine ratings.
2012 ‐ 2013 Annual Budget 127 School Section
The State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR) replaced the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS). The STAAR program at grades 3‐8 will assess the same subjects and grades that are currently assessed on TAKS. The high school however, grade‐specific assessments will be replace with 12 end‐of‐course (EOC) assessments.
Students entering the ninth grade in 2011‐2012 school year were the first class required to take STAAR EOC assessments. The 12 EOC assessments are: Algebra I, geometry, Algebra II, biology, chemistry, physics, English I, English II, English III, world geography, world history, and U.S. history.
The following grade levels are tested for the subject areas noted: Reading – 3rd through 8th grade Writing – 4th & 7th grade Social Studies – 8th grade Mathematics – 3rd through 8th grade Science – 5th & 8th grade.
The following are the accountability ratings given to a campus: Exemplary– At least 90% of students tested passing for every subject. Recognized‐At least 75% of students tested passing for every subject. Academically Acceptable‐Varies by subject: Reading/ELA‐At least 70% of students tested passing. Writing‐At least 65% of students tested passing. Social Studies‐At least 65% of students tested passing. Mathematics‐At least 50% of students tested passing. Science‐At least 45% of students tested passing. Academically Unacceptable‐Did not meet the minimum % of students required to pass in at least one subject area tested.
The District adopted the following plan in order to achieve maximum results and accountability:
United ISD Ten Step State Mandated Test Improvement Plan:
1. Each campus will develop a Campus Improvement Plan which projects yearly gains needed to achieve a campus accountability rating of Recognized or above within 3 years. A summative evaluation of the improvement plan will be submitted annually upon receipt of the State Mandated Test scores. 2. Each Executive Director for the secondary and elementary schools will document efforts to support each campus in achieving its State Mandated Test targeted improvements (to be reviewed at regular intervals). 3. The Superintendent and Board will review assignments of the following personnel based on student performance as outlined in Step 1 of this Ten Step State Mandated Test Improvement Plan: a. Department of Curriculum and Instruction (C & I) b. Campus principals (having been assigned to a given campus for three or more
128 United Independent School District School Section
years)* c. Classroom Teachers 4. The Department of Curriculum and Instruction will develop a district‐wide focused program for language arts and math instruction that includes teacher training and a student evaluation component. 5. All Elementary schools will teach, at a minimum, math for 60 minutes daily and language arts for 140 minutes. Campuses may choose to extend these times as they deem necessary to meet their targeted gains. An extensive tutoring program for students at risk of not passing the State Mandated Test will be implemented at every campus. 6. All students in grades 9‐12 who fail one or more sections of the state mandated test will enroll in a remediation course during the summer until all sections of the test are passed. Campuses may offer state or local elective credit if they can offer these courses within their teacher allocation. (Local elective courses will require board approval) 7. Every teacher new to the District will participate in a program of training that will prepare them to implement District programs/curriculum in the area of math and reading. Teachers will be trained to use the District accountability system to plan student interventions. 8. A Success Profile will be developed on every student (grades 3‐Exit) which documents strengths and weaknesses of each student and his/her progress toward the Exit Level Exam (Campuses may use available data analysis software for this purpose). 9. Campus and C & I staff will continue to visit and study the methods of districts and campuses similar to United ISD across the state who have demonstrated high performance. 10. United ISD will continue to develop and improve technology to align curriculum and to make student assessment and progress tracking more accurate and efficient.
*Principals of campuses that have not achieved Recognized and/or Exemplary status will demonstrate a minimum of 25% growth toward a Recognized status within a three year period. Principals not meeting this expectation could be subject to reassignment. Principals, of Recognized or Exemplary campuses who fall below their status in any given year will have one year to regain their status (could be subject to reassignment).
Accountability Rating for Students
Three designations are made in order to categorize students’ performance:
Commended Performance Met the Standard Did Not Meet the Standard
The criteria that must be met in order to achieve “Commended Performance” and “Met the Standard” for 2011‐12 are outlined on the tables to follow in this section. The tables indicate the performance measures along with the grade levels that are designated to take that particular exam. It should be noted that grades K‐2 are tested using diagnostic reading assessments for local use only. The information on the following page is based on scores for 2011‐2012.
