Thursday night was a celebration of sorts for the Bellbrook-Sugarcreek School District and its Treasurer, Amit Gautam, as they received the Auditor of State Award.
This is the fourth time the District has won the award, and the first time since 2017.
To be eligible, the District has to meet the criteria of a clean audit report. That criteria can be found below.
“It’s a team effort,” Gautam said after receiving the certificate. “I’d like to thank everyone in the Treasurer’s office, the Superintendent’s office, everyone who works on grants, including curriculum and special education. It’s not just us. It’s everyone working as a team to make sure everything is done right. Principals, secretaries, teachers … it’s not just me being audited. Anything done wrong at any place will affect the audit.”
