WESTLAKE SCHOOLS EARNS 5TH PERFECT AUDIT FROM STATE AUDITOR

Auditor of State Dave Yost’s office gave the Westlake City School District a clean report once again for the 2011-2012 school year. This is the fifth consecutive “perfect audit,” clean of findings or citations, and paves the way for the district to receive a distinction award from the Auditor of State.

CFO/Treasurer Mark C. Pepera credits the achievement to a concerted effort by his staff to enforce fiscal policy and maintain a high level of internal controls and financial reporting procedures, as well as buildings and departments following those guidelines. Under Pepera’s fiscal watch, the Westlake City School District has been nationally recognized for 13 consecutive years of excellence in financial reporting.
