Who We Are

The accounting/finance department’s mission is to accurately report the financial position of the School district, its departments, and business activities for government agencies, rating agencies, auditors, creditors, grantors, donors, and others who may have a vested interest in the financial activity and health of the District. Within the scope of this mission is the responsibility to coordinate and direct all financial transactions recorded in the accounting system of the District. This responsibility requires that we be service oriented relative to the financial needs of all departments while still assuring that all transactions adhere to policies and procedures, generally accepted accounting principles, and rules established by the authoritative governing bodies.

Executive Director of Finance

What We Do

Our department is broken into three different groups; Accounts Payable/Accounts Receivable, Payroll and Finance. Accounts Payable/Accounts Receivable responsibility is to efficiently process purchase orders, invoices, and issue payments. In addition to payables, it is also responsible for the reporting and receipting of monies received through various sources. The Payroll group is responsible for processing and issuing payroll checks to the employees of Floyd County BOE. This group works in tandem with the Human Resources department as well as each of the individual schools to accurately calculate each employee's paycheck. Lastly, the finance group governs the accounting of the entire system, develops budgets, works with grants received for the district and provides financial resources to the district as a whole.
