Miami-Dade County School Board Awarded Certificate of Excellence in Financial Reporting for 40th Year

The Miami-Dade County School Board has been awarded the Association of School Business Officials (ASBO) International's Certificate of Excellence in Financial Reporting Award (COE) for high-quality financial reporting of its Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. The District's participation in the COE program for the past 40 years is a testament to its commitment to financial transparency.

By participating in the COE program, Miami-Dade County Public Schools demonstrates its commitment to financial transparency. Applicants submit their ACFR for review by a team of financial professionals, who provide feedback to improve future documents. If the report meets the requirements of the program, it may receive the Certificate of Excellence in Financial Reporting. A district's participation in the COE program can facilitate bond-rating and continuing bond-disclosure processes.

Founded over a century ago as a nonprofit organization, ASBO International recognizes each school district's superior efforts in financial reporting to the community through outstanding reports. ASBO International is committed to providing programs, services, and a global network that promote the highest standards in school business. Its members support student achievement through effective resource management in various areas ranging from finance and operations to food services and transportation.
