Oct. 22, 2024 / For the 10th year in a row, the Klamath County School District has received a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting from the Government Finance Officers Association of the U.S. and Canada for its Comprehensive Annual Financial Report.

The Certificate of Achievement is the highest form of recognition in governmental accounting and financial reporting. An impartial committee spent six months reviewing the district’s financial report for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023. The comprehensive report replaces a standard audit.

Janet Melsness is the director of the district’s nine-member Business Services team.

KCSD Superintendent Glen Szymoniak said earning the CAFR award represents the district’s determination to maintain public trust by demonstrating outstanding fiduciary responsibility in managing public funds.

“Achieving this level of stewardship over 10 years is a mark of excellence for our business office and its leadership,” he said.
