Summary

The bill prevents a county board of education from reappointing its superintendent unless an audit of the local school system’s financial management is finished by the Office of Legislative Audits—or, in limited cases, an independent CPA—by a set deadline in the superintendent’s final term year. The audit must be submitted to the State Superintendent and released to the public. The measure is intended to boost fiscal accountability before a superintendent can be retained.
