The Finance Committee works with board members, the Superintendent and Business Manager to

the management of the charter school's assets. The Finance Committee monitors the following
Accountability Plan goals:
1. The school’s annual budget is sustained by its enrollment.
2. Each year, the school demonstrates a history of positive net assets, adequate cash flow to sustain
operations and support the academic program and consistently operates within budget.
3. There is an absence of material or repeated audit findings in annual audits by qualified independent
auditors.
