10.2 062.1-2026 Monthly Financial Report

It is recommended that the Board of Education approve the March 2026 Monthly Financial Summary as presented.

Page 1 Summary: The February 2026 general fund cash balance was 3,000,422.73. The cost to run the district for the month of March was $59,777. Using that amount to determine the # of days our cash balance can sustain us results in approximately 50 days, or 1.62 months.

Page 2 Summary: The total revenue in the month of March was $1,472,353., the total March expenditures were $1,853,094. Expenditures exceeded revenue by $380,742. 

Total YTD revenue is $14,891,069. Total YTD expenditures are $16,665,640.  The YTD expenditures exceed the YTD revenue by $1,774,571 as of the end of March 2026. 

Page 3 Summary: The district is nearly 75% of the way through the school year. When actual  FYTD revenue and expenditures are compared to the total amount of forecasted revenue and expenditures, revenue is on target. While total revenue is at 65.6%, the two total consistent monthly revenues (state funding) are on target. Payroll and benefits are on Expenditures are also on target. payroll and benefits evident. Purchased services appear low, but at the end of the school year, we pay excess costs and catastrophic costs to districts that are educating our students, which will impact the purchased services line. I expect it to be closer to forecasted amounts by June.

Page 4 Summary:  Total revenue in March was approximately $149, 662 more than March last year. Expenditures were approximately $115,310K less than the same month last year. This nets to approximately $115,310K less spending in the month of March in FY2026 than in FY 2025. Year to date 2026 revenue exceeds the FY25 revenue by $367,028 and Expenditures in FY26 are $306,701 less than in FY25 at the end of March.

Page 6 Summary: The total amount of funds reconciled to the bank balances in March 2026 was $12,283,166.35

Following pages are the Cash Summary Report that breaks the stated amount reconciled into the various funds the finance department tracks monthly/annually. the reconciled balance matches the totals of the Fund Balance Column on the last page of this report.

The final report presents the March 2026 disbursements for approval of the board.
