Audit Program and Report Format
Membership audits are required by Wis. Stat. §115.28(18) for at least 25 percent of school districts each year. Under this random selection method, all districts will be audited at least once every four years. Districts with audit findings, late January pupil count and summer school fee issues are added to the list.
DPI reserves the right to remove a district from the selection if the district has already had two or more membership audits during the current cycle and the most recent membership audit came back without findings. School districts required to have a membership audit will be notified the first week fo February each year. DPI has an established deadline of May 1 for submission of the required school district membership audits.
