All of the information on this site consists of data and other information in which the Georgia Department of Education already collects and in most cases published in some existing form, or which is collected and published by another department within state government such as the Department of Audits and Accounts. The website linked below is the required centralization of this information into a single website.

Fiscal Year 2024 Budgets & Reports
Georgia DOAA
The Georgia Department of Audits and Accounts audits the financial statements of the Effingham County Board of Education on an annual basis. The audit is conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that the audit team plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. The audit evidence must be sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for the audit opinion.
For more information regarding these audits, please contact Lauren Cain, Director of Finance, at llcain[@] Effingham.k12.ga.us
