School Funds
Any funds collected by the school, faculty, or student groups from the members of the student body are considered public funds and are accountable to the system auditor. All funds should be deposited with the school through the principal’s secretary. Each group should keep their own records on how much they have on deposit with the school. Groups may not keep their own individual bank accounts. No money should be kept in the teacher’s desk or room. Turn money into the secretary at the end of the day.
