A S W ANDERSON SMITH & WIKE PLLC Certified Public Accountants INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT To the Roanoke Rapids Graded School District Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Roanoke Rapids Graded School District, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2017 and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Board s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. Management s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions. Opinions In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Roanoke Rapids Graded School District as of June 30, 2017, and the respective changes in financial position and cash flows, where applicable, thereof and the respective budgetary comparison for the General, State Public School, Federal Grants and Other 1

Special Revenue funds for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that Management s Discussion and Analysis on pages 3 through 9 and the Schedule of the Board s Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability and the Schedule of Board Contributions on pages 41 and 42, respectively, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. Supplementary and Other Information Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the Roanoke Rapids Graded School District s basic financial statements. The individual nonmajor fund schedules, budgetary schedules and the accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal and State awards as required by the Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, and the State Single Audit Implementation Act, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The individual nonmajor fund schedules, budgetary schedules and the accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal and State awards are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the individual nonmajor fund schedules, budgetary schedules and the accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal and State awards are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated August 21, 2017 on our consideration of the Roanoke Rapids Graded School District s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering Roanoke Rapids Graded School District s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

MANAGEMENT S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS This section of the Roanoke Rapids Graded School District s (the "Board") financial report represents our discussion and analysis of the financial performance of the Board for the year ended June 30, 2017. This information should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in this report. Financial Highlights For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017, the Board s total government-wide net position decreased by $1,012,000, or 6.5%. Governmental activities net position decreased by $1,069,000, or 7.2%, and business-type activities net position increased by $57,000, or 7.6%. The Board s average daily membership (ADM) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017 was 2,888 students, an increase of 24 students from the 2016 ADM of 2,864. Total government-wide net investment in capital assets increased by $24,000, or 0.2%, from the prior year. Governmental activities net investment in capital assets decreased by $7,000, or 0.04%, and business-type activities net investment in capital assets increased by $31,000, or 32.0%. Total restricted net position decreased by $10,000, or.8%. Restricted net position is found only in the governmental activities. The Board s total government-wide unrestricted net position at June 30, 2017 decreased by $1,025,000 from the prior year. Governmental activities unrestricted net position decreased by $1,051000 while business-type activities unrestricted net position increased by $26,000 over the prior year. Overview of the Financial Statements The audited financial statements of the Roanoke Rapids Graded School District consist of four components. They are as follows: Independent Auditors' Report Management's Discussion and Analysis (required supplementary information) Basic Financial Statements Required supplemental section that presents budgetary statements for nonmajor governmental funds and budgetary statements for enterprise funds. The Basic Financial Statements include two types of statements that present different views of the Board s finances. The first is the Government-wide Statements. The government-wide statements are presented on the full accrual basis of accounting and include the statement of net position and the statement of activities. The statement of net position includes all of the Board s assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities and deferred inflows of resources. Assets and liabilities are classified in the order of relative liquidity for assets and due date for liabilities. This statement provides a summary of the Board's investment in assets, deferred outflows of resources, deferred inflows of resources and obligations to creditors. Liquidity and financial flexibility can be evaluated using the information contained in this statement. The statement of activities summarizes the Board s revenues and expenses for the current year. A net (expense) revenue format is used to indicate to what extent each function is selfsufficient. 3

MANAGEMENT S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS The second set of statements included in the basic financial statements is the Fund Financial Statements, which are presented for the Board s governmental funds and proprietary funds. These statements present the governmental funds on the modified accrual basis of accounting, measuring the near term inflows and outflows of financial resources and what is available at year-end to spend in the next fiscal year. The proprietary funds are presented on the full accrual basis of accounting. The fund financial statements focus on the Board s most significant funds. Because a different basis of accounting is used in the government-wide statements, reconciliation from the governmental fund financial statements to the government-wide statements is required. The government-wide statements provide information about the Board as an economic unit while the fund financial statements provide information on each of the financial resources of each of the Board s major funds. Government-wide Statements The government-wide statements report information about the unit as a whole using accounting methods similar to those used by private-sector companies. The statement of net position includes all of the Board s assets and liabilities. All of the current year s revenues and expenses are accounted for in the statement of activities regardless of when cash is received or paid. The two government-wide statements report the Board s net position and how it has changed. Net position is the difference between the Board s assets and liabilities. This is one way to measure the unit s financial health or position. Over time, increases or decreases in the Board s net position are an indicator of whether its financial position is improving or deteriorating. To assess the Board s overall health, you need to consider additional non-financial factors such as changes in the County s and City s property tax bases and the condition of its school buildings and other physical assets. The unit s activities are divided into two categories in the government-wide statements: Governmental activities: Most of the Board s basic services are included here, such as regular and special education, transportation, and administration. County and city funding along with state and federal aid finance most of these activities. Business-type activities: The Board charges fees to help it cover the costs of certain services it provides. School food service is included here. The government-wide statements are shown as Exhibits 1 and 2 of this report. Fund Financial Statements The fund financial statements provide more detailed information about the Board s funds, focusing on its most significant or major funds - not the unit as a whole. Funds are accounting devices the Board uses to keep track of specific sources of funding and spending on particular programs. Some funds are required by State law, such as the State Public School Fund. The Board has established other funds to control and manage money for a particular purpose or to show that it is properly using certain revenues, such as in the Federal Grants Fund. 4

MANAGEMENT S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS Roanoke Rapids Graded School District has two types of funds: Governmental funds: Most of the Board s basic services are included in the governmental funds, which generally focus on two things 1) how cash and other assets that can readily be converted to cash flow in and out, and 2) the balances left at year-end that are available for spending. As a result of this focus, the governmental funds statements provide a detailed short-term view that helps the reader determine whether there are more or fewer financial resources that can be spent in the coming year to finance the Board s programs. Because this information does not encompass the additional long-term focus of the government-wide statements, additional information at the bottom of the governmental fund statements, in the form of a reconciliation, explains the relationship (or differences) between the government-wide and the fund financial statements. The Board has several governmental funds: the General Fund, the State Public School Fund, the Federal Grants Fund, the Other Special Revenue Fund, the Capital Outlay Fund and the Individual Schools Fund. The governmental fund statements are shown as Exhibits 3, 4, 5 and 6 of this report. Proprietary funds: Services for which the Board charges a fee are generally reported in the proprietary funds. The proprietary fund statements are reported on the same full accrual basis of accounting as the government-wide statements. The Roanoke Rapids Graded School District has two proprietary funds - both enterprise funds the School Food Service Fund and the Child Care Fund. The proprietary fund statements are shown as Exhibits 7, 8, and 9 of this report. Financial Analysis of the Board as a Whole Net position is an indicator of the fiscal health of the Board. Assets exceeded liabilities by $14.6 million as of June 30, 2017 as compared to $15.6 million as of June 30, 2016, a decrease of $1.0 million. The largest component of net position is net investment in capital assets of $15.7 million, which comprises 108% of the total net position. Following is a summary of the Statement of Net Position: 5

Restricted net position decreased by $10,000, primarily due to decreased fund balance in the Capital Outlay Fund. Unrestricted net position decreased $1,051,000 compared to the prior year, due primarily to the increase in pension expense. Net investment in capital assets decreased $7,000 due to an excess of depreciation expense over capital additions for the year. The net position of the Board s business-type activities increased $57,000 from $748,000 at June 30, 2016 to $805,000 at June 30, 2017. This increase of $57,000 is the combined net profit generated by our school food service and child care operations during the 2017 fiscal year. The following table shows the revenues and expenses for the Board for the current and prior fiscal years: 6

Comparatively, revenues were $26.3 million, expenses totaled $25.3 million and transfers out were $62,000 for the year ended June 30, 2016, resulting in an increase in net position of $862,000. The board experienced an increase in revenues of $275,000; however expenses increased $2.2 million, including an increase in pension expense of $1.5 million. The Board s primary sources of revenues were funding from the State of North Carolina, Halifax County, and the United States Government, which respectively comprised 68.0%, 9.0% and 7.5% of our total revenues. As would be expected, the major component of our expenditures was instructional services which accounted for 75.3% of our total expenditures during the most recent fiscal year. Of the remaining 24.7% of our total expenditures, 20.0% was attributable to system-wide support services. 7

MANAGEMENT S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS Our business-type activities generated revenues of $2.1 million, while expenses in this category totaled $2.1 million for the year ended June 30, 2017. For the year, net position increased by $57,000 (including transfers in of $62,000). Comparatively, revenues and expenses were $2.0 million and $1.9 million respectively with transfers in of $62,000 for the year ended June 30, 2016, resulting in an increase in net position of $156,000. Financial Analysis of the Board s Funds Governmental Funds: The focus of Roanoke Rapids Graded School District s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of usable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the Board s financing requirements. The Board s governmental funds reported a combined fund balance of $3.3 million at June 30, 2017, a decrease of $740,000 from the amount reported at June 30, 2016. The Board s Individual Schools fund reported revenues over expenditures for the year ended June 30, 2017 of $20,000, while the General, Other Special Revenue and Capital Outlay funds reported decreases in fund balance of $629,000, $113,000 and $19,000, respectively. Overall, total governmental fund revenues increased by $284,000, or 1.1%, from the prior year, while total expenditures increased by $746,000, or 2.8%. Proprietary Funds: The Board s business-type funds, the School Food Service Fund and the Child Care Fund, reported a combined increase in net position of $57,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017 compared to an increase of $156,000 for the same 2016 period. Net income in the School Food Service Fund (including transfers in) was $67,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017 compared to $154,000 for 2016, a decline of $87,000. The Child Care Fund reported a net loss of $10,000 in 2017 compared to net income of $2,000 in 2016, a decline of $12,000. General Fund Budgetary Highlights Over the course of the year, the Board revised the budget several times to account for changes in revenue expectations and program allocations. Since several revenue sources are either unknown or uncertain at the beginning of the fiscal year when the original budget is adopted, budget revisions are necessary throughout the year to recognize these adjustments. Capital Assets Total primary government capital assets were $15.7 million at June 30, 2017 compared to $15.7 million at June 30, 2016, an increase of $24,000. More detailed information about the Board s capital assets is contained in the notes to the financial statements. The following is a summary of the Board s capital assets, net of depreciation, at June 30, 2017 and 2016.

MANAGEMENT S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS Economic Factors County and City funding are a major source of income for the Board; therefore, the local area s economic outlook directly affects that of the Board s. Roanoke Rapids and Halifax County continue to feel the effects of the national recession. Our unemployment rate was 7.0% at June 30, 2017 while the State and national rates were 4.2% and 4.4%, respectively. Our local school district s supplemental tax provides approximately 34.6% of our funding for local budgets. These funds are critical for the effective operation of the school district. The Board has maintained a healthy fund balance over the years, but if State funding continues to decline and federal ARRA stimulus grant revenues are not replaced, the district will continue to face some challenging funding decisions in the future.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting policies of Roanoke Rapids Graded School District conform to generally accepted accounting principles as applicable to governments. The following is a summary of the more significant accounting policies: A. Reporting Entity The Roanoke Rapids Graded School District (Board) is a Local Education Agency empowered by State law [Chapter 115C of the North Carolina General Statutes] with the responsibility to oversee and control all activities related to public school education in Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina. The Board receives State, local, and federal government funding and must adhere to the legal requirements of each funding entity. The Board has no component units. B. Basis of Presentation Government-wide Statements: The statement of net position and the statement of activities display information about the Board. These statements include the financial activities of the overall government. Eliminations have been made to minimize the effect of internal activities upon revenues and expenses. These statements distinguish between the governmental and business-type activities of the Board. Governmental activities generally are financed through intergovernmental revenues and other nonexchange transactions. Business-type activities are financed in whole or in part by fees charged to external parties. The statement of activities presents a comparison between direct expenses and program revenues for the different business-type activities of the Board and for each function of the Board s governmental activities. Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a program or function and, therefore, are clearly identifiable to a particular function. Indirect expense allocations that have been made in the funds have been reversed for the statement of activities. Program revenues include (a) fees and charges paid by the recipients of goods or services offered by the programs and (b) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular program. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues are presented as general revenues. Fund Financial Statements: The fund financial statements provide information about the Board s funds. Separate statements for each fund category governmental and proprietary are presented. The emphasis of fund financial statements is on major governmental and enterprise funds, each displayed in a separate column. All remaining governmental and enterprise funds are aggregated and reported as nonmajor funds. Proprietary fund operating revenues, such as charges for services, result from exchange transactions associated with the principal activity of the fund. Exchange transactions are those in which each party receives and gives up essentially equal values. Nonoperating revenues, such as subsidies and investment earnings, result from nonexchange transactions or ancillary activities. All expenses are considered to be operating expenses. The Board reports the following major governmental funds: General Fund. The General Fund is the general operating fund of the Board. The General Fund accounts for all financial resources except those that are accounted for in another fund. State Public School Fund. The State Public School Fund includes appropriations from the Department of Public Instruction for the current operating expenditures of the public school system. 22

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Federal Grants Fund. The Federal Grants Fund includes appropriations from the U.S. Government for the current operating expenditures of the public school system. Other Special Revenue Fund. The Other Special Revenue Fund is used to account for revenues from reimbursements, including indirect costs, fees for actual costs, tuition, sales tax refunds, gifts and grants restricted as to use, federal and State grants restricted as to use, federal and State appropriations made directly to local school administrative units, funds received for prekindergarten programs and special programs. Capital Outlay Fund. The Capital Outlay Fund accounts for financial resources to be used for the acquisition and construction of major capital facilities (other than those financed by proprietary funds and trust funds). It is mandated by State law [G.S.115C-426]. Capital projects are funded by Halifax County appropriations, restricted sales tax moneys, proceeds of county debt issued for public school construction, lottery proceeds as well as certain State assistance. The Board reports the following nonmajor governmental funds: Individual Schools Fund. The Individual Schools Fund includes revenues and expenditures of the activity funds of the individual schools. The primary revenue sources include funds held on the behalf of various clubs and organizations, receipts from athletic events, and proceeds from various fund raising activities. The primary expenditures are for athletic teams, club programs, activity buses, and instructional needs. The Board reports the following major enterprise fund: School Food Service Fund. The School Food Service Fund is used to account for the food service program within the school system. C. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting Government-wide and Proprietary Fund Financial Statements. The government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred, regardless of when the related cash flows take place. Non-exchange transactions, in which the Board gives (or receives) value without directly receiving (or giving) equal value in exchange, include grants and donations. Revenue from grants and donations is recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements have been satisfied. Governmental Fund Financial Statements. Governmental funds are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under this method, revenues are recognized when measurable and available. The Board considers all revenues reported in the governmental funds to be available if the revenues are collected within sixty days after year-end. These could include federal, State, and county grants, and some charges for services. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for claims and judgments and compensated absences which are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured. General capital asset acquisitions are reported as expenditures in governmental funds. Acquisitions under capital leases are reported as other financing sources. Under the terms of grant agreements, the Board funds certain programs by a combination of specific cost-reimbursement grants and general revenues. Thus, when program expenses are incurred, there is both restricted and unrestricted net position available to finance the program. It is the Board s policy to first apply cost-reimbursement grant resources to such programs and then general revenues. Halifax County levies, on behalf of the Roanoke Rapids Graded School District, a special property tax (the school supplemental tax). The tax levy on real and personal property is twenty-one cents per $100 23
