AISD’s Finance Department earns Certificate of Achievement from GFOA

Disponible en: Español

The Aldine ISD Finance Department has been awarded the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting from the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA).

The Finance Department earned this honor due to its annual comprehensive financial report for the fiscal year ending on June 30, 2021. The report was judged by an impartial panel of judges and met the high standards of the program, which includes demonstrating a constructive “spirit of full disclosure” to clearly communicate its financial story and motivate potential users and user groups to read the report.

The Certificate of Achievement is the highest form of recognition in the area of governmental accounting and financial reporting, and its attainment represents a significant accomplishment by a government entity and its management.

The GOFA established the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting Program in 1945 to encourage and assist state and local governments to go beyond the minimum requirements of generally accepted accounting principles to prepare annual comprehensive financial reports that evidence the spirit of transparency and full disclosure and then to recognize individual governments that succeeded in achieving that goal.

Aldine ISD’s Finance Department consists of Stan Osborne, Chief Financial Officer, Alexia Rodgers, Assistant Superintendent of Finance, Perla Davila, Director of Consolidated Programs, Desiree Smith, Director of Accounting and Business Services, Dr. Dametra Skinner, Director of Federal and State Compliance, Carlotta Nicholas, Director of Purchasing and Stacey Smith, Director of Special Programs.
