Auburn School District has been recognized for participating in the Association of School Business Officials International (ASBO) Certificate of Excellence in Financial Reporting (COE) program for 25 consecutive years.

Auburn is one of just 59 districts nationwide that have participated in the COE program for more than 25 years.

The COE award program is the only award program designed specifically to review Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports (CAFRs). It is the highest recognition for school district financial operations offered by ASBO and is only conferred to school systems that have met or exceeded the standards of the program.

The district’s consistently high-quality Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) validates the credibility of the school system’s operations, measures the integrity and technical competence of the business staff, assists in strengthening the presentations for bond issuance statements and provides professional recognition.
