§ 1625 County School Budget Deficits
If a county school office shows a negative cash or fund balance in its yearly report, it must add a note to the next budget explaining why it happened and how it will be fixed.
A county school district ends the year $500,000 short in its cash account.
When the district files its next budget, it has to write a short statement saying what caused the $500,000 shortfall and what steps (like cutting expenses or finding new money) will be taken so the cash balance isn’t negative again.
