Humble ISD has received a Certificate of Excellence in Financial Reporting for the 2023 fiscal year by the Association of School Business Officials (ASBO) International. This is the 38th consecutive year Humble ISD has received the certificate for its Annual Comprehensive Financial Report.
This recognition is for school districts that have met the program’s high standards for financial reporting and transparency.
“For over half a century, ASBO International’s Certificate of Excellence in Financial Reporting has been the gold standard in promoting and recognizing excellence in financial reporting,” ASBO International Executive Director/CEO Jim Rowan said in a press release. “Communicating the financial and economic state of a district is so important when engaging with the school community and building their trust. Districts that receive the COE Award have demonstrated their ability to do that at the highest level.”
Humble ISD’s participation in the Certificate of Excellence program demonstrates the district’s “commitment to financial transparency”.
Applicants submit their Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for review by a team of financial professionals who provide feedback to improve future documents. If the report meets the requirements of the program, it may receive the Certificate of Excellence. A district’s participation in the COE program can facilitate bond rating and continuing bond disclosure processes.
The COE is proudly sponsored by ASBO International Strategic Partner American Fidelity.
