Upon review of Mehlville School District’s finances for the 2022 fiscal year, auditors from Daniel Jones and Associates issued the district’s accounting practices its highest marks, an unmodified opinion, or clean audit.
Auditors issue unmodified opinions to express that financial statements are presented fairly in all material respects and to express that the district has complied with all statutory requirements. Daniel Jones and Associates presented the audit report to the Mehlville Board of Education on Dec. 15, 2022.
“We appreciate an independent auditor affirming our accounting practices,” said Mehlville School District Chief Financial Officer Marshall Crutcher. “We take pride in earning and maintaining the community’s trust when it comes to financial stewardship.”
Mehlville School District currently has the lowest blended tax rate out of the 22 St. Louis County school districts. In fiscal year 2021 (2020-2021 school year), the district spent $10,082 per student, the second lowest amount of St. Louis County school districts.
