January 30, 2012

Dear Chairman, School Board Members, and Citizens of Sarasota County:

We are pleased to submit the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR)of the School Board of Sarasota County, Florida (District) for the fiscal yearended June 30, 2011. State law requires that all school districts publish withintwelve months of the close of each fiscal year a complete set of financialstatements presented in conformity with accounting principles generally acceptedin the United States (GAAP) and audited in accordance with generally acceptedauditing standards by an independent certified public accountant. Pursuant tothat requirement, we hereby issue the comprehensive annual financial report of

the District for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011.

We believe the information, as presented, is accurate in all material aspects; thatit is presented in a manner designed to set forth fairly, in all material respects, thefinancial position and results of operations of the District as measured andreported by the financial activity of its various funds; and that all disclosuresnecessary to enable the reader to gain an adequate understanding of theDistrict’s financial affairs have been included. The responsibility for thepreparation of the accompanying financial statements and other informationcontained in this CAFR, based on the above standards, rests with the District’smanagement. To provide a reasonable basis for making these representations,

management of the District has established a comprehensive internal controlframework that is designed to compile sufficient reliable information for theDistrict’s financial statements in conformance with GAAP. Because the cost ofinternal controls should not outweigh the benefits, the District’s comprehensiveframework has been designed to provide reasonable rather than absoluteassurance that the financial statements will be free from material misstatement.

As management, we assert that, to the best of our knowledge and belief, thisfinancial report is complete and reliable in all material respects.

The District’s financial statements have been audited by Cherry, Bekaert &Holland, L.L.P. The goal of the independent audit is to provide reasonableassurance that the basic financial statements of the District for the fiscal yearended June 30, 2011, are free of material misstatement. The independent auditinvolved examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts anddisclosures in the financial statements; assessing the accounting principles usedand significant estimates made by management; and evaluating the overallfinancial statement presentation. The independent auditor concluded that therewas a reasonable basis for rendering unqualified opinions that the District’sfinancial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, are fairly presentedin conformity with GAAP. The independent auditor’s report is presented as thefirst component of the financial section of this report.

The independent audit of the financial statements of the District was part of abroader, federally mandated “Single Audit” designed to meet the special needs offederal grantor agencies. The District is required to undergo an annual single

audit in conformity with the provisions of the Single Audit Act of 1996 and theUnited States Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-133, Audits ofStates, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations. The standardsgoverning Single Audit engagements require the independent auditor to reportnot only on the fair presentation of the financial statements, but also on theaudited government’s internal controls and compliance with legal requirements,with special emphasis on internal controls and legal requirements involving theadministration of federal awards. Information related to this single audit,including the schedule of expenditures of federal awards, findings andquestioned costs, and the independent auditors’ report on the system of internalcontrol and on compliance with applicable requirements, are included in the

single audit section.

GAAP require that management provide a narrative introduction, overview, andanalysis to accompany the basic financial statements in the form ofManagement’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). This letter of transmittal isdesigned to complement the MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it.The District’s MD&A can be found immediately following the independentauditor’s report.

This accompanying report includes all funds of the District, The FinancingCorporation for the School Board of Sarasota County (Corporation), and charter

schools, which comprise the reporting entity. The Corporation was formed by theSchool Board to be the lessor in connection with financing the acquisition and/orconstruction of certain educational facilities. Charter schools are public schoolsoperating under a performance contract with the School Board. The Corporationwas identified as a component unit, requiring blended presentation of thefinancial statements. The District’s charter schools are included as discretelypresented component units.

or square feet. Resources have been accumulated in order to meet potentiallosses.

On March 16, 2010, voters in Sarasota County voted to continue the one-milllevy to preserve quality schools. This vote continued the tax levy that was

Major Initiatives

Class Size Reduction Amendment

In November 2002, the voters of Florida amended the State Constitution to limitclass size. By the beginning of the 2010-11 fiscal year, the amendmentestablished the maximum number of students in core-curricula courses assigned

to a teacher in each of the following three grade groupings: (1) pre-kindergartenthrough grade 3, 18 students; (2) grades 4 through 8, 22 students; and (3)grades 9 through 12, 25 students.

The Florida legislature enacted Senate Bill-30A implementing the reduction of theaverage number of students in each classroom by at least two students per year,beginning in the 2003-04 fiscal year until the maximum number of students perclassroom does not exceed the 2010-11 fiscal year maximums. If a district’sclass size does not meet the constitutional maximum, then the district mustreduce the average number of students in each of the three grade groupings bytwo students until the constitutional maximums are reached. The following ishow the constitutional maximums will be calculated:

• For the 2003-04, 2004-05, and 2005-06 fiscal years, class size will becalculated at the district level.

• For the 2006-07 and 2007-08 fiscal years, class size will be calculated atthe school level.

• For the 2008-09 and 2009-10 fiscal years, class size will be calculated atthe classroom level. This requirement was amended for each fiscal yearto stay at the school level due to funding shortfalls. Full implementation at

the classroom level was not required until the Constitutional deadline of2010-11.

For the 2010-11 fiscal year, the District continued its efforts to meet theconstitutional maximums for the three grade groupings at classroom-level.Based on the annual review by the Florida Department of Education, the Districtdid not fully comply with the constitutional maximums in all classrooms. TheFlorida Department of Education assessed a penalty as mandated by Fl. Statute


13/189

vi

1003.03(4) in the final amount of $144,974 for not meeting the requirement for allcore-curricula classrooms. The District has allocated more instructors to theclassrooms for the 2011-12 fiscal year and feels the District will be in compliancein future years.

Capital Outlay Program

During the 2010-11 fiscal year, the District Capital Outlay program focusedprimarily on large scale heating, ventilation and air conditioning system upgradesat two schools and three complete school rebuild projects: Booker High School,Venice High School and the Sarasota County Technical Institute.

Accomplishments

One of the ways to judge a school district is to compare the results of its students

on national and statewide tests and the accomplishments of its staff. The Districtbelieves that its students and staff have performed remarkably well based onvarious tests and accomplishments as noted below.

Schools throughout Florida are held accountable and receive school gradesbased on the results of the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT).The 2010-11 fiscal year marks the 12th year of this accountability program andSarasota County School District continued its tradition of excellence. This year33 schools received a grade of ‘A’, 12 received a grade of ‘B’, and 1 received agrade of ‘C’. The District received an overall grade of ‘A’.

The Florida Department of Education recently released their first annual rankingof school districts in the state. Sarasota County ranks fourth in the state out ofsixty seven school districts in terms of student achievement for the 2010-2011fiscal year.

Over 63 percent of Sarasota District teachers have earned Master’s degrees orhigher.

The School Board of Sarasota County has 159 teachers that have successfullycompleted the rigorous and time-intensive program of the National Board ofProfessional Teaching Standards. To achieve the highly esteemed NationalCertification, teachers are required to provide a portfolio of information regardingteaching styles, examples of work performed by students, and successfully passan examination. Teachers who gain this certification are provided incentivesincluding salary and mentoring bonuses.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the aggregatediscretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund informationof the School Board of Sarasota County, Florida (the “District”), as of and for the year ended June 30,2011, which collectively comprise the District’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of

contents. These financial statements are the responsibility of the District’s management. Ourresponsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We did notaudit the financial statements of the charter schools listed in Note 1, which represent 100 percent ofthe transactions and account balances of the aggregate discretely presented component units. Thosefinancial statements were audited by other auditors whose reports have been provided to us, and ouropinion, insofar as they relate to the amounts included for the District’s aggregate discretely presentedcomponent units, is based on the reports of the other auditors.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the UnitedStates of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government AuditingStandards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that weplan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are

free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting theamounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accountingprinciples used and the significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overallfinancial statement presentation. We believe that our audit and the reports of other auditors provide areasonable basis for our opinions.

In our opinion, based on our audit and the reports of other auditors, the financial statements referredto above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmentalactivities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregateremaining fund information of the School Board of Sarasota County, Florida, as of June 30, 2011, andthe respective changes in financial position and cash flows, where applicable, thereof and therespective budgeted comparison for the General Fund and the ARRA Economic Stimulus Special

Revenue Fund thereof for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generallyaccepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the District restated their inventory balance as ofJune 30, 2010. In addition, as discussed in Notes 1 and 12 to the financial statements, the Districtadopted the provisions of GASB No. 54 Fund Balance Reporting and Fund Type Definitions.

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated, January30, 2012, on our consideration of the District’s internal control over financial reporting and on our testsof its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements andother matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control overfinancial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on theinternal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an auditperformed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be considered in assessingthe results of our audit.

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that management’sdiscussion and analysis on pages 3 through 15 and the Schedule of Funding Progress – OtherPostemployment Benefits on page 71 be presented to supplement the basic financials statements.Such information although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by theGovernmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financialreporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, orhistorical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementaryinformation in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America,which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information andcomparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basicfinancial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financialstatements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because thelimited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide anyassurance.

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements thatcollectively comprise the District’s financial statements as a whole. The introductory section,combining and individual fund financial statements and schedules and statistical section arepresented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial

SCHOOL BOARD OF SARASOTA COUNTY, FLORIDAManagement’s Discussion and Analysis

June 30, 2011

The management of the School Board of Sarasota County, Florida (the District) has prepared thefollowing discussion and analysis to (a) assist the reader in focusing on significant financial issues; (b)provide an overview and analysis of the District’s financial activities; (c) identify changes in theDistrict’s financial position; (d) identify material deviations from the approved budget; and (e) highlight

significant issues in individual funds.

Because the information contained in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) is intendedto highlight significant transactions, events and conditions, it should be considered in conjunction withthe District’s financial statements and notes to the basic financial statements.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

Key financial highlights for the 2010-11 fiscal year are as follows:

The District’s financial position improved during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011. In totalnet assets increased by $13,949,699, or 1.6 percent over the course of the year.

General revenues totaled $475,672,359, or 95 percent of all revenues. Program specificrevenues in the form of charges for services, operating grants and contributions, and capitagrants and contributions totaled $26,641,351, or 5 percent. Total revenues decreased from$514,753,977 in fiscal year 2009-10 to $502,313,710 in fiscal year 2010-11. The change isprimarily attributed to a decrease in per student funding and a decrease in property taxrevenues.

Expenses totaled $488,364,011; only $26,641,351 of these expenses were offset by programspecific charges, with the remainder paid from general revenues. Total revenues exceededtotal expenses by $13,949,699. Total expenses increased $6,493,688 or 1.3 percent, from$481,870,323 in fiscal year 2009-10. This change is attributed primarily to an increase in

interest paid on long-term debt and for direct instruction due to the full implementation of theconstitutional class size reduction amendment.

The unassigned fund balance of the General Fund, representing the net current financiaresources available for general appropriation by the Board, totaled $37,449,121 at June 30,2011 or 10.1 percent of total General Fund expenditures.

Government-wide Financial Statements

The Government-wide financial statements provide both short-term and long-term information about

the District’s overall financial condition in a manner similar to those of a private-sector business. Thestatements include a statement of net assets and a statement of activities that are designed toprovide consolidated financial information about the governmental activities of the PrimaryGovernment presented on the accrual basis of accounting. The statement of net assets providesinformation about the government’s financial position, its assets and liabilities, using an economicresources measurement focus. The difference between the assets and liabilities, the net assets, is ameasure of the financial health of the District. The statement of activities presents information abouthe change in the District’s net assets, the results of operations, during the fiscal year.

The Government-wide statements present the District’s activities in two categories:

Governmental activities – This represents most of the District’s services including itseducational programs: basic, vocational, adult and exceptional education. Support functions

such as transportation and administration are also included. Local property taxes and theState’s education finance program provide most of the resources that support these activities.

Component units –The District presents nine separate legal entities in this report. Althoughlegally separate organizations, the component units are included in this report because theymeet the criteria for inclusion provided by generally accepted accounting principles. Eight othese organizations are charter schools. Financial information for these component units isreported separately from the financial information presented for the primary government. TheFinancing Corporation for the School Board of Sarasota County (Corporation), although also

legally separate, was formed to facilitate financing for the acquisition of facilities andequipment. Due to the substantive economic relationship between the School Board and theCorporation, the Corporation is included as an integral part of the primary government. Pleaserefer to Note 1 to the financial statements for more information on the District’s componentunits.

Over a period of time, changes in the District’s net assets are an indication of improving ordeteriorating financial condition. This information should be evaluated in conjunction with other non-financial factors, such as changes in the District’s property tax base, student enrollment, and thecondition of the District’s capital assets including its school buildings and administrative facilities.

Fund Financial Statements

Fund financial statements are one of the components of the basic financial statements. A fund is agrouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been

segregated for specific activities or objectives. The District uses fund accounting to ensure anddemonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements and prudent fiscal managementState law establishes certain funds, while others are created by legal agreements, such as bondcovenants. Fund financial statements provide more detailed information about the District’s financiaactivities, focusing on its most significant or “major” funds rather than fund types. This is in contrasto the entity-wide perspective contained in the Government-wide statements.

All of the District’s funds may be classified within one of three broad categories:

Governmental Funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functionsreported as governmental activities in the Government-wide financial statements. However, the

governmental funds utilize a spendable financial resources measurement focus rather than theeconomic resources measurement focus found in the Government-wide financial statements. Thisfinancial resources measurement focus allows the governmental fund statements to provideinformation on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources as well as balances ofspendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Consequently, the governmental fundstatements provide a detailed short-term view that may be used to evaluate the District’s near-termfinancing requirements. This short-term view is useful when compared to the long-term viewpresented as governmental activities in the Government-wide financial statements. To facilitate thiscomparison, both the governmental funds balance sheet and the governmental funds statement ofrevenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation of governmental fundsto governmental activities.

Proprietary Funds.

Proprietary funds may be established to account for activities in which a fee ischarged for services. The District maintains one type of proprietary fund, the internal service fund toaccount for the District’s self-insurance programs. Since these services predominantly benefitgovernmental rather than business-type functions, the internal service funds have been includedwithin governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements.

Fiduciary Funds. Fiduciary funds are used to report assets held in a trustee or fiduciary capacity forthe benefit of external parties, such as student activity funds. Fiduciary funds are not reflected in theGovernment-wide statements because the resources are not available to support the District’s ownprograms. In its fiduciary capacity, the District is responsible for ensuring that the assets reported inthese funds are used only for their intended purposes. The District uses agency funds to account forresources held for student activities and groups.
