District pays a $45,114.89 state student-count audit bill

What happened

On February 23, 2026 the board approved paying Colorado Department of Education audit invoice #109456 for $45,114.89. The agenda describes it as the 'CDE Student Count Audit 2018-2022', covering several past school years.

Why it matters to families

A bill this size is a notable one-time cost for a district with roughly 220 students. Student counts decide how much state money a district gets, so an audit bill points to a count the state checked. The collected documents do not say what the audit found or whether funding was adjusted.

The evidence
