Did you know...
In accordance with California Assembly Bill (AB) 1200, the Fresno County Superintendent of Schools (FCSS) has fiscal oversight responsibility over LEAs in the County.
FCSS has authority to disapprove an LEA's budget, or authority to declare an LEA in jeopardy of being unable to meet its financial obligations through a qualified or negative certification at interim financial reporting periods or at any time during the year.
The District Financial Services (DFS) Department of FCSS is charged with this responsibility. To assist LEAs, DFS provides resources such as manuals, worksheets and other forms. These resources can be found on the DFS web page here.
