LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL

November 22, 2016

Members of the Guilford County Board of Education and Citizens of Guilford County, North Carolina:

In compliance with North Carolina General Statute 115C-447, the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (the “Report”) of the Guilford County Board of Education, operating as “Guilford County Schools,” for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 is herewith submitted.

MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITY

Responsibility for the accuracy, completeness, and clarity of the Report rests with the Superintendent and the Finance Officer. The Report has been prepared by the Chief Financial Officer and the Assistant Financial Officer in accordance with the requirements and guidelines promulgated by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. To the best of our knowledge and belief, the enclosed data are accurate in all material respects and are reported in a manner that presents fairly the financial position and results of operations of the various funds of the district. All disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain the maximum understanding of the district’s financial activity have been included.

REPORTING ENTITY

Guilford County Schools (“GCS”) is the third largest school district in North Carolina and among the 50 largest districts in the country serving more than 70,000 students at 127 schools as of the twentieth day of the 2015-16 school year. GCS is one comprehensive school district serving the entire county. Ten municipalities reside in Guilford County: Gibsonville, Jamestown, Oak Ridge, Pleasant Garden, Sedalia, Stokesdale, Summerfield, Whitsett and two of the state’s nine largest cities, Greensboro and High Point. The district was formed as a result of a merger of the former Greensboro City School, Guilford County School and High Point City School Systems in July 1993. This merger gives the district a robust mix of urban, suburban and county schools. Of the district’s 127 schools, 69 are elementary schools; 22 middle schools; 28 high schools; four special education schools; two SCALE schools, which provide an alternative to long-term suspensions; Doris Henderson Newcomer School, designed for students in grades five through 12 who have recently arrived in the United States and are considered novices on the North Carolina language test; and High School Ahead Academy, an innovative program for over-aged middle school students. The Board consists of eleven citizens elected for staggered terms of four years. The Superintendent serves as secretary to the Board. The Board has no tax levying authority and is required to maintain accounting records according to a uniform state format. The Board receives funding from Guilford County, the state of North Carolina, and the United States Government, and must comply with the legal requirements of each funding entity. North Carolina General Statute 115C-40 empowers the Guilford County Board of Education with general control and supervision of all matters pertaining to the schools in the system. In evaluating how to define the district for financial reporting purposes, management has considered all potential component units. The decision to include or exclude a potential component unit in the reporting entity is made by applying the criteria established by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The definition of a component unit is a legally separate organization for which the district is financially accountable and other organizations for which the nature and significance of their relationship with the district are such that exclusion would cause the reporting entity’s financial statements to be misleading or incomplete. The district is financially accountable if it appoints a voting majority of the organization’s governing body and (1) it is able to impose its will on that organization or (2) there is a

Page 11: COMPREHENSIVE ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT For …however, during 2009 this changed as the unemployment rate began to exceed those averages. Guilford County’s unemployment rate is trending

GUILFORD COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL

- ii -

potential for the organization to provide specific financial benefits to, or impose specific financial burdens on, the district. The district may also be financially accountable if an organization is fiscally dependent on the district, regardless of whether the organization has (1) a separately elected governing board, (2) a governing board appointed by a higher level of government or (3) a jointly appointed board.

Using the GASB criteria, management has determined that the district has no component units, nor is it a component unit of any other organization.

ECONOMIC CONDITION AND OUTLOOK

GCS serves the diverse needs of the entire county, a 651 square mile area with an approximate population of 517,600. Our enrollment of approximately 70,600 students (our Average Daily Membership for 2015-16 was 70,922 per North Carolina Department of Public Instruction) mirrors the diversity of the community, representing some 95 countries and speaking 105 languages. Guilford County generally enjoys a favorable economic environment, which until the recent recession has enjoyed consistent stable growth. While gross retail sales information is unavailable due to the national streamlined sales tax initiative, comparable State taxable sales figures are available to approximate retail sales growth. State taxable sales for Guilford County increased 3.98% in fiscal year 2016 after increases of 9.85%, 4.0% and 0.1% in fiscal years 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Taxable sales are $6.71 billion for fiscal year 2016 as compared to $6.45 billion for fiscal year 2015. Guilford County has a labor force of approximately 280,000. During the recent economic downturn, the Piedmont Triad region was affected more strongly than in the past due to the strong negative impact on traditional manufacturing industries. Guilford County’s unemployment rate has historically been below both state and national averages; however, during 2009 this changed as the unemployment rate began to exceed those averages. Guilford County’s unemployment rate is trending downward but still lags slightly behind the State and National levels. The County, State, and U.S. unemployment rates as of June 30, 2016 are 5.4%, 5.1%, and 5.1%, respectively. Guilford County’s economy has continued to change and diversify. In December 2015, manufacturing accounted for 12% of the County’s jobs compared to 28.6% in 1980. Manufacturing jobs have declined significantly in furniture and textiles but have shown growth in computer and electronic products and electrical equipment. Major employers with headquarters or divisions within Guilford County include semiconductor, communications, chemical, bus, truck, pharmaceutical, insurance, aircraft manufacturing and maintenance, healthcare, real estate development, and distribution services. The County is home to two state universities, four private colleges, a private school of law, and a community college with a cumulative enrollment exceeding 50,000 students. Site Selection magazine has ranked the Greensboro-High Point Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) No. 6 in the nation during 2015 for attracting new and expanded corporate facilities amount similar-sized areas (metros with populations of 200,000-1 million). While down from last year’s first-place ranking, this is the ninth year in a row that the MSA, composed of Guilford, Randolph, and Rockingham counties, has earned a Top 10 national ranking. Honda Aircraft received final type certification from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and delivered its first $4.5 million HondaJet in December 2015; since then the company has delivered 13 HondaJets. In July 2016, the company earned its production certificate from the FAA. The type certificate is the FAA’s stamp of approval on the design of an aircraft and the production certificate allows the company to ramp up production of the aircraft. Since 2007 the company has grown its workforce to more than 1,700 and invested about $160 million into its world headquarters campus near the Piedmont Triad International Airport (PTIA). The company occupies more than 680,000 square-feet and its headquarters and manufacturing campus on a 130-acre site, which includes a customer service center, a research and development center and a productions facility.

A $176.5 million road and taxiway bridge project designed to open up close to 1,000 acres for economic development at PTIA is underway. The work includes a 9.4 mile, four-lane section of the future Interstate 73 that will extend from Bryan Boulevard to just south of U.S. 220 near Haw River. The entire project is expected to be finished in 2017. HAECO Americas, an aircraft maintenance and overhaul company, announced in August 2016 that the construction of its fifth hangar is underway at the PTIA. The cost to build the nearly 250,000 square foot structure will total $60 million and add up to 500 jobs at full capacity. The project is slated for completion in the fourth quarter of 2017. The company employs 1,400 at PTIA currently. HAECO Cabin Solutions, a unit of HAECO Americas, expanded its design engineering and interiors product manufacturing capacity in its new $11.3 million, 259,000 square foot facility in High Point, which opened in the first half of 2016. The company plans to create 147 jobs over five years. Qorvo, formed in early 2015 from the merger of RF Micro Devices and TriQuint Semiconductor, announced in December its plans to add 100 new jobs over the next three years and make an investment of $25 million. In June, the company announced it had hired the majority of those positions with plans to add several more in the coming months and complete its new 150,000 square-foot facility by next summer. In August 2016, the company announced that it will make Greensboro its sole headquarters; its headquarters had previously been split between Greensboro and Oregon. Cone Health received approval from State regulators in February 2016 for two projects totaling $173 million. The system plans to spend $134.5 million to build a new five-story, 118,000 square-foot women’s health addition to Moses Cone Hospital for a replacement of the 40-year-old Women’s Hospital. Construction of the new facility could begin in the fall of 2017 with completion scheduled for mid-2020. In addition, Cone Health is planning a $38.5 million project to be ready for use in early 2018 that will modernize and expand its operating suites at Wesley Long Hospital. In 2012, Self-Help Ventures Fund began a $100 million renovation of the 45-acre Revolution Mill site, located just north of downtown Greensboro. When the current redevelopment phase is complete in 2017, the mixed-use campus will include more than 240,000 square-feet of office space and artist studios, 142 residential apartments, multiple dining options, fitness and yoga facilities, as well as event venues and public exhibits The Gateway Materials Test Center of the Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering, which works with aerospace companies, reported in January 2016 that it had received accreditation by the ANSI-ASQ National Accreditation Board. The accreditation is expected to help it attract more business from existing and new aerospace customers. CH Living, an upholstery brand of California-based Castle Home Furnishings, opened a 180,000 square-foot East Coast manufacturing facility in Greensboro in the first half of 2016, with plans to employ 200 workers by the end of 2017. Union Square Campus opened its $34 million nursing education facility in downtown Greensboro in August 2016. The three-story, 84,000 square-foot building will house a nursing collaboration between Cone Health, UNC-Greensboro, NC A&T State University, and GTCC. Construction is underway on a $60 million hotel/apartment complex, Carroll at Bellemeade, at the corner of Eugene and Bellemeade streets. The complex is located in the north end of downtown Greensboro and is expected to be finished at the end of 2017.

Public and private funds are constructing a $78 million Steven Tanger Center for the Performing Arts in Downtown Greensboro; an opening is scheduled for early 2018. Across the street from the planned performing arts center, Greensboro’s newest park, Carolyn and Maurice LeBauer Park, officially opened in August 2016. The 3.5-acre park was built with a $10 million gift to the Community Foundation of Greater Greensboro. Daimler’s Thomas Built Buses, the leading school bus manufacturer in North America, reported in July 2016 the addition of 200 jobs at its Fairfield Road operation, which sits on the border – partly in the Guilford County part of High Point and partly in Randolph County. The additional positions came on top of an $11.8 million expansion completed in 2015 that created 236 full-time jobs. Heritage Home Group moved its corporate headquarters from out of state to its newly up-fitted building in High Point in March 2016. The furniture company is adding approximately 300 jobs to the local workforce. Ralph Lauren Corporation, High Point’s largest employer with 2,843 full time equivalent employees, completed construction on its 843,000 square-foot $36.14 million distribution facility in the fall of 2015 and it’s expected to be fully operational in the third quarter of 2016. The building is in the I-74 Corporate Park, which is located in Forsyth County and annexed to the City of High Point. In April 2016, High Point University announced $160 million in three new building projects that are expected to take the next several years to complete. Construction is underway on the 224,000 square-foot School of Health Sciences and School of Pharmacy, a $120 million project which is scheduled to be complete in 2017. High Point Regional Health completed the first phase of its $78 million comprehensive expansion and renovation project in the spring of 2016. The project is expected to be completed in March 2019. Creative Snacks Co., a Greensboro based snack manufacturer, is building a $3 million, 92,130 square-foot facility in High Point that will add up to 100 jobs over the next five years. The project was underway as of June 2016.

BUDGET PROCESS

The North Carolina School Budget and Fiscal Control Act mandates a uniform budget format and the adoption of an annual balanced budget resolution for the State Public School Fund, the Local Current Expense Fund, the Federal Grants Fund, the Capital Outlay Fund and the Special Revenue Fund. The district’s budget resolution also includes the Child Nutrition or School Food Service Fund and the ACES (After-School Care Enrichment Services) fund. Budget development is a year-round process that begins in the fall of each year and continues until a budget resolution is adopted by the Guilford County Board of Education on or before July 1. Participation at all levels of the school system is evident in this ongoing process. Schools and central office departments review their budget needs and submit their requests. The superintendent, chief financial officer and division chiefs develop the superintendent's budget request prioritizing all requests based on the vision, mission, goals, objectives and strategies outlined in the District’s strategic plan, Achieving Educational Excellence: Personalizing Learning. Initial state fund and federal fund budget calculations are based on budget information provided by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction.

Previous years’ budgets and development processes were reviewed in order to identify the major budgetary assumptions/variables of federal, state and local origin impacting the school district’s budget development/adoption. The assumptions/variables identified as a result of that review include:

salary increase percentage for teachers/licensed staff; salary increase percentage for principals/assistant principals; salary increase percentage for classified employees; changes in employee benefit rates/amounts (social security, retirement, hospitalization, workers’

compensation, unemployment, life insurance); percentage of increase for annual utility/energy and gas/diesel fuel costs; percentage of increase for various risk management areas (i.e., liability/fleet/property/pupil scholastic

accident insurance lines of coverage); additional energy costs for newly constructed and or air conditioned square footage associated with the

district’s Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) Program; additional maintenance/staffing costs associated with newly constructed and/or renovated square

footage associated with the CIP Program; and increase in funding associated with projected growth in student enrollment. Other factors impacting the budget development process can include:

strategic plan initiatives; funds to address accountability/achievement goals/requirements; or funds to offset anticipated state/federal budget cuts. A final consideration concerns the funds needed to maintain an aging infrastructure. Half of the school district’s buildings are 50 years old or more, with at least 60% built before 1969. The school district maintains over 12 million square feet of school building space. These items are funded from the increase in funding associated with projected growth in student enrollment, if available, and/or from the redirection of existing state/local/federal dollars and/or from additional funding requested from the county commission. GCS has two proprietary (enterprise) funds - the Child Nutrition or School Food Service Fund and the After School Care Enrichment Services (ACES) Fund. Budgets for these funds are developed based on historical revenue, expenditure and participation data as well as anticipated legislated salary increases and/or changes in employee benefit rates/amounts and/or inflationary increases for food or supplies and/or student enrollment projections and/or changes in child nutrition meal costs or weekly ACES fees. Nearly $100 billion in federal stimulus or American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) funds were dedicated to education. The U.S. Department of Education distributed ARRA funds to states to save and create jobs while advancing reforms and improvements that will create long-lasting results for K-12 students. GCS benefited from these dollars in several programs as evidenced in recent years by an increase in the federal fund budget as a percentage of the total budget. The district continues to receive ARRA funds for very specific programs in the form of various direct federal grants.

Monitoring of budgets and funds: Budget management includes three separate areas:

1. pre-audit of disbursements and encumbrances

2. amendments to the budget resolution

a. accounts for transfers of funds from one account to another within guidelines of the respective funding source(s)

b. tracks increases (new funds added to budget) or decreases (funds removed from budget)

c. budget resolution specifies transfer authority and reporting requirements

3. meeting applicable reporting requirements (local, state and federal)

Some of the tools/mechanisms used to evaluate budgets include:

internal audits; external audits; program audits; analyzing expenditures and revenues; analyzing staffing patterns.

The district incorporates the following practices in budget development and implementation: establishing measures for continuous performance monitoring; obtaining citizen and other stakeholder involvement early in the budget process; communicating goals, objectives, strategies and desired outcomes; promoting a sense of ownership and empowerment to budget managers to implement effective practices

and achieve goals; incorporating realistic revenue and expenditure forecasts; reviewing budget-to-actual or budget-to-projected comparisons of revenues, expenditures, cash flow, and

fund balance periodically during budget development; providing monthly summary and detail expenditure reports to budget managers; using the district’s accounts payable, general ledger, payroll and purchasing systems to monitor available

funds before encumbering/spending occurs; and preparing a comprehensive annual financial report of the district’s operations.

MAJOR INITIATIVES, SERVICE EFFORTS AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS

Our vision (what we will become), our mission and thematic goals (how we will get there), and our core values (what we believe) solidify the underlying foundation for all Guilford County Schools’ decisions and actions. Our vision is to become the top performing academic metropolitan school district in America. The mission of the district is that Guilford County students will graduate as responsible citizens prepared to succeed in higher education, or in the career of their choice. The Board in partnership with parents and community members wants to share these district core values in order to strengthen our schools and improve the quality of life for all of our citizens.

Diversity. We are committed to creating an educational organization where a variety of persons and perspectives are welcome. We are committed to providing an environment where students and staff from all cultures and backgrounds may succeed.

Empathy. We are committed to developing a culture where our employees identify with and understand the feelings of our students and parents and their colleagues.

Equality. We are committed to creating a school system where everyone is appreciated and judged based solely on their contributions and performance. Through the work of this institution, we will create awareness of and develop strategies to understand and eradicate prejudice, discrimination and racism on the individual and organizational level.

Innovativeness. We are committed to fostering a work environment where the goal is not to manage innovations, but to become innovative. Problems are identified, ownership of those problems is assumed by the adults in the district, and everyone works together as agents of the solution until the problems are solved. We will not stop until obstacles are removed, solutions found and clear and compelling goals are established.

Integrity. We are committed to creating a school district that acts with honesty and forthrightness, holding ourselves to high academic and ethical standards, and dealing with everyone with respect.

The Guilford County Schools (GCS) Strategic Plan 2016: Achieving Educational Excellence: Personalizing Learning serves as the district’s road map for achieving educational excellence. The plan includes strategies designed to boost student achievement, increase family and community involvement, improve district service, increase the teacher retention rate and improve school safety and discipline. The plan is divided into four key areas:

personalizing learning; character, service and safety; parent, family and community; and educator and organizational excellence.

INTERNAL CONTROLS

Management of GCS is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal controls designed to ensure that the assets of the district are protected from loss, theft, or misuse and to ensure that adequate accounting data are compiled to allow the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The internal controls are designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that these objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that: (1) the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived; and (2) the evaluation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management. We believe the Board’s internal accounting controls adequately safeguard assets and provide reasonable assurance of proper recording of financial transactions. As a recipient of federal, state and county financial assistance, the district also is responsible for ensuring that adequate internal controls are in place to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations related to those programs. The internal controls are subject to periodic evaluation by management and the external

auditor for the district. The program administrators for school accounting monitor the activity funds of the individual schools for compliance with applicable federal, state, and local laws/regulations/policies/procedures. As a part of the district’s single audit, tests are made to determine the adequacy of the internal controls, including that portion related to state and federal financial assistance programs, as well as to determine that the district has complied with applicable laws and regulations. The district’s single audit for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 resulted in no instances of material weaknesses in internal controls, material violations of applicable laws and regulations or questioned costs. INDEPENDENT AUDIT North Carolina General Statutes require an annual audit by independent certified public accountants. The financial records and transactions of the Guilford County Board of Education for the year ended June 30, 2016 have been audited by Dixon Hughes Goodman LLP, a firm of independent certified public accountants. Their audit of the basic financial statements and accompanying combining and individual fund statements and schedules was performed in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and, accordingly, included a review of the Board’s system of budgetary and accounting controls. In addition to meeting the requirements set forth by the statutes, the audit also was designed to meet the federal and state single audit requirements. Guilford County Schools received an unmodified opinion on the basic financial statements. The auditors’ report on the basic financial statements and the combining and individual fund statements and schedules are included in the financial section of this Report. Management’s Discussion and Analysis provides an overview of the Board’s financial activities and condition for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016. The analysis focuses on school district financial performance as a whole. Please read it in conjunction with this transmittal letter and the school district’s financial statements. AWARDS The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting and the Association of School Business Officials International (ASBO) awarded a Certificate of Excellence in Financial Reporting to the Guilford County Board of Education for its comprehensive annual financial report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015. These are prestigious awards recognizing conformance with the highest standards for preparation of state and local government financial reports. These awards are made only to governmental units that publish a comprehensive annual financial report that is easily readable, efficiently organized, and conforms to program standards as well as satisfies generally accepted accounting principles and applicable legal requirements. The awards are valid for a period of one year only. We believe the accompanying Report continues to conform to GFOA and ASBO program requirements; therefore, we will submit it to these respective organizations for consideration of renewed certificate eligibility and award. In addition, the GFOA presented a Distinguished Budget Presentation Award to the Guilford County Board of Education for its annual budget document for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2015. The Board has received this award for fourteen consecutive years. In order to receive this award, the district must publish a budget document that meets program criteria as a policy document, as an operations guide, as a financial plan, and as a communications device.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

Guilford County Board of Education Greensboro, 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 Guilford County Board of Education (the “Board”) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2016, 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.

Auditors’ 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 auditors’ 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, business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Board as of June 30, 2016, and the respective changes in financial position and cash flows, where applicable, thereof and the respective budgetary comparison for the General Fund and State Public School Fund for the year then ended in accordance 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 4 through 13 and the Schedule of Board’s Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability and the Schedule of Board Contributions on pages 54 and 55, 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 will sufficient evident to express and opinion or provide any assurance.

Supplementary and Other Information

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements that collectively comprise the Board’s basic financial statements. The introductory section, combining and individual non-major fund financial statements and schedules, budgetary schedules and statistical section, as well as the accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal and State Awards as required by Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, and State Single Audit Implementation Act, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.

The combining and individual non-major fund financial statements, budgetary schedules, other 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 basic 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 or to 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 combining and individual non-major fund financial statements, 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.

The introductory and statistical sections have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on them.

Other Reporting Required By Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated November 22, 2016 on our consideration of the Board’s internal control over financial reporting and 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 the 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 the Board’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

GUILDFORD COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCAITON MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

- 4 -

This section of the Guilford County Board of Education’s (the “Board”) financial report represents our discussion and analysis of the financial performance of the Board for the year ended June 30, 2016. This information should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in this report.

Financial Highlights The Board’s average daily membership (ADM) decreased by 73 students (or .1%) from the previous year. [ADM

is calculated by dividing the number of students enrolled each school day (whether in attendance or not) by the number of school days.] In the past decade our student enrollment has increased by more than 1,500 students.

The Board’s governmental activities net position increased 3.2% and the business-type activities net position increased 15.8% during the year. This is due to the change in the School Board’s proportionate share of the State pension plan.

Total fund balance in the Board’s General Fund increased from $13.1 million at June 30, 2015 to $13.8 million at June 30, 2016. The increase in the total fund balance was due primarily to expenditures less than the amounts budgeted.

Unassigned fund balance is $2,229,326 as of June 30, 2016. This figure represents 1.2% of our FY16 general fund final budget; .33% of our FY16 final operating budget and .34% of our FY17 original operating budget. While the unassigned fund balance is not constrained in any way or earmarked for any specific use or purpose, these funds provide some additional financial stability to the district and the resources necessary to meet unexpected expenditures and/or revenue shortfalls in future budget cycles.

The 2015-16 county appropriation to the capital outlay fund was $5 million – these are dollars that are used to make needed repairs to more than 12 million square feet of facilities across the district.

In 2009-10 the Board established a special revenue fund to account for reimbursements, including but not

limited to, indirect costs, fees for actual costs, tuition, sales tax refunds, gifts and grants restricted as to use, federal appropriations made directly to local school administrative units, funds received for prekindergarten programs, and special programs.

The Board received a three-year $30 million U.S. Department of Education's Race to the Top-District grant in December 2012. The grant is being used to support the Personalized Achievement, Curriculum and Environment (PACE) Schools Project. In January 2013, the district was awarded an additional $5.2 million in optional grant funding, including $1,995,065 for Guilford Parent Academy, $1,656,307 for the African-American Male Achievement Initiative and $1,570,646 for a Guilford County Schools Virtual Public Middle School. This brings the total RttT-D grant funding to $35,222,003. These dollars are included in the special revenue fund.

On May 6, 2008, Guilford County (County) residents approved $412 million in school bonds. The package

contains 27 projects, which include five new schools and 6,571 new student seats. Thirteen schools will receive major renovations and additions. Projects included in the bond are prioritized with 93.5 percent of the request relieving overcrowding, 3.5 percent targeting repairs and renovations and 3 percent improving heating and air conditioning systems district wide. Projects included in the May 2008 $412 million school bonds are:

Jamestown Middle School - Funding for new 1,112 student replacement school on new site (site has been purchased)

Ragsdale High School - Combine existing Jamestown MS with Ragsdale HS and add new gym and media center

Ragsdale Autism Wing - Autism wing at Ragsdale High School for 48 students Special Education Center West - Additional funding to be added to current funding Southeast High School - New classrooms, media center and gymnasium addition Alamance Elementary School - Addition, demolition and renovations to convert to 700 student

elementary school

On January 8, 2013 the Board voted to not spend approximately $75M in bond dollars to build the airport area high school or buy the land for the airport area middle school and to discuss the decision with the board of county commissioners. On November 5, 2013, the Board of Education approved the following list of priority projects totaling $79,024,123:

Guilford Middle School – replacement school ($30,263,459); Hunter Elementary School – replacement school ($14,812,285); High Point Central High School – addition/renovation ($12,338,890); Smith High School – athletic renovation ($5,282,476); Western High School – addition/renovation ($6,001,437); Bluford Elementary School – renovation ($7,780,151); Northwood Elementary School – kitchen renovation/expansion ($639,225); Dudley High School – new traffic pattern ($750,000); and Northwest High School – new traffic pattern ($1,156,200).

On April 3, 2014, the Guilford County Board of County Commissioners approved a funding amount equal to the design and pre-construction cost for each of the nine priority projects. On March 19, 2015, the Guilford County Board of County Commissioners approved funding six of the nine priority projects totaling $42,571,153:

Hunter Elementary School – replacement school ($19,273,675 revised budget); High Point Central High School – addition/renovation ($12,457,591 revised budget); Bluford Elementary School – renovation ($8,294,462 revised budget); Northwood Elementary School – kitchen renovation/expansion ($639,225);

Dudley High School – new traffic pattern ($750,000); and Northwest High School – new traffic pattern ($1,156,200).

It is important to note that the Board of Education has no tax levying authority; therefore, bond debt is issued and reported by the County while the capital assets and associated depreciation are reported by the Board. Overview of the Financial Section The audited financial statements of the Board consist of five components. They are as follows:

Independent Auditors’ Report; Management's Discussion and Analysis (required supplementary information); Basic Financial Statements; Required supplementary information that presents information about the Board’s participation in the state’s

retirement system; and Supplemental information that presents combining and budgetary statements for non-major governmental

funds and budgetary statements for major governmental and 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 and liabilities. 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 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 self-sufficient. The second set of statements included in the basic financial statements is the fund financial statements, which is presented for the Board’s governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary 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 and fiduciary 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 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, except for fiduciary fund 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 they have changed. Net position – the difference between the board’s assets and the total of liabilities – 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 district’s overall health, factors such as the condition of its school buildings and other physical assets must also be considered.

The Board’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 funding and 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 and After-School Care Enrichment Services are 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.

The Board has three types of funds: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds. Governmental funds: Most of the Board’s basic services are included in the governmental funds, which generally focus on two things – how cash and other assets can readily be converted to cash flow in and out, and 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 funds statements, in the form of a reconciliation, explains the relationship (or differences) between the government-side and the fund financial statements. The district has several governmental funds: the General Fund, the State Public School Fund, the Capital Outlay Fund, the Federal Grants Fund, the Special Revenue Fund, and the Individual Schools Fund. The governmental fund statements are shown as Exhibits 3, 4 and 5 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 Board has two proprietary funds – both enterprise funds – the School Food Service Fund and the After School Care Enrichment Services Fund. The proprietary fund statements are shown as Exhibits 6, 7, and 8 of this report. Fiduciary funds: Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the government. The Board serves as a trustee, or fiduciary, for ten scholarships. All of the Board’s fiduciary activities are reported in a separate Statement of Fiduciary Net Position and a separate Statement of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position. We exclude these activities from the Board’s other financial statements because the Board cannot use these assets to finance its operations. The Board is responsible for ensuring that the assets reported in these funds are used for their intended purposes and by those to whom the assets belong. This is accounted for as a private purpose trust fund. The fiduciary fund statements are shown as Exhibits 9 and 10 of this report.

Financial Analysis of the Board as a Whole Net position is an indicator of the fiscal health of the Board. Total assets exceeded total liabilities by $783,288,181 as of June 30, 2016. The largest component of net position is the net investment in capital assets of $893,018,468. While assets for governmental activities exceeded liabilities by $772,367,655 as of June 30, 2016, the information regarding net position that is contained in the following two tables conveys a couple of important points about the financial condition of the district. The first point is related to the impact of fund balance levels on net position and the second point is related to the effect of school construction and major renovation projects on net position. Table 1 is a Condensed Statement of Net Position as of June 30, 2016 and Table 2 is a Condensed Statement of Activities for the year ended June 30, 2016.

Note the increase in total assets in the Governmental Activities column when comparing the June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015 financial snapshots. This increase is due, in part, to an increase in the cash balance of the capital outlay fund due the sale of property in the 2015-16 year. Also, note the negative amount of $127,164,935 as reflected in the unrestricted net position line-item in the Governmental Activities column in Table 1 (Condensed Statement of Net Position). The total governmental liabilities include $36,210,739 in accumulated vacation and bonus vacation leave as well as $109,233,355 in net pension liability. These liabilities, along with the net amount of deferred inflows of resources and deferred outflows of resources account for more than the unrestricted net position. This issue of negative governmental unrestricted net position reinforces the district’s need to maintain an unassigned fund balance. Readers desiring more detailed information on long-term debt/obligation activity should see Note III.B.10. to the financial statements. The change

in the June 30, 2016 negative unrestricted net position of governmental activities when compared to the June 30, 2015, is a result of the change in the actuarial valuations of the net pension liability.

Table 2 (Condensed Statement of Activities) reflects an increase in net position of $23,872,592 for governmental activities (or 3.2%). This increase was due largely to a reduction in total liabilities due to the change in the actuarial valuations of the net pension liability. Total net position in the business-type activities increased by $1,486,781 in 2015-16. Also, note that the Board carries capital assets for which Guilford County carries the offsetting debt. Total governmental activities generated revenues of $673 million while expenses in this category totaled $649 million for the year ended June 30, 2016. Comparatively, revenues were $686 million and expenses totaled $665 million for the year ended June 30, 2015. The increase in net position for total governmental activities stands at $23.9 million at June 30, 2016, compared to $20.7 million in 2015. Instructional expenses comprised 73.6% of total governmental-type expenses while support services made up 20.2% of those expenses for 2016. County funding comprised 30.9% and 30.8% of total governmental revenue in 2016 and 2015, respectively. Much of the remaining 69% of total governmental revenue for 2016 consists of restricted state and federal money. The increase in net position for business-type activities stands at approximately $1,486,781 at June 30, 2016, compared to a decrease in net position of nearly $966,212 in 2015 (see the Financial Analysis of the Board’s Funds below for an explanation of the factors/conditions prompting this change). Financial Analysis of the Board’s Funds Governmental Funds: The focus of the Board’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 (general, state, federal, capital outlay and individual school funds) reported a combined fund balance of $20.8 million, an increase of approximately $3.2 million from last year. More than one-half of this increase was due to proceeds of the sale of property reflected in the Capital Outlay Fund. Proprietary Funds: As mentioned previously, the Board has two proprietary funds – both enterprise funds – the School Food Service Fund and the After School Care Enrichment Services Fund. The activity in these two funds is categorized as business-type activity because the Board charges fees to help it cover the costs of services provided.

For the year ended June 30, 2016, revenues exceeded expenses in the School Food Service Fund by $1,252,919 despite a challenging year which saw new meal patterns dictated by the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 and an increase in lunch prices.

New meal patterns went into effect for lunch in the 2012-13 school year. The changes include:

ensure students are offered both fruits and vegetables every day of the week;

require all grain products to be whole grain rich;

allow only fat-free or low fat milk (flavored milk must be fat free);

limit calories based on the grade of the student; and

increase efforts to reduce sodium, saturated fat and trans fat. As part of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act, all districts must comply with a meal price equity requirement compelling all districts to annually increase the price of lunches served to paying students until such time as the cost of the paid lunch is, on average, equal to the difference between the free meal reimbursement and the paid meal reimbursement. Districts may choose to cover the difference in revenue with non-Federal funds (local dollars) instead of raising meal prices. The maximum annual increase required is $0.10; however, districts may establish a higher increase at their discretion. The Board of Education approved a 2015-16 lunch price increase of six cents at all schools.

On June 28, 2012, Board approved a process to address charged meals in elementary and middle schools that includes:

establishing a cap as to the number of meals to be charged, and serving an alternative meal once the cap is met/exceeded.

Following implementation of the charged meal plan the district has realized a $451,839 or 93.3% reduction in the balance of charged meals at June 30, 2016 when compared to the balance of charged meals at June 30, 2012 and a 63.5% decrease when compared to the balance of charged meals at June 30, 2013. After School Care Enrichment Services (“ACES”) was provided to an average enrollment of 3,656 students at 57 elementary school sites in the district during the 2015-16 academic year. The weekly program fee continued to be $46 in 2015-16 and all ACES programs were licensed by the North Carolina Division of Child Development and Early Education and each was eligible to accept Department of Social Services child care vouchers. For the year ended June 30, 2016, revenues exceeded expenses in the After School Care Enrichment Services Fund by $233,862. General Fund Budgetary Highlights During the year, the Board revised its original budget ordinance. Budget amendments reflected changes in programs and related funding. The difference between the original budget and the final amended budget was an decrease of $405,477 or -0.22% in total general fund budgeted expenditures. This decrease was primarily attributable to an adjustment to fund balance appropriations for encumbrances that were outstanding at June 30, 2016. A review of Exhibit 5 (Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balance-Budget and Actual-General and State Public School Funds) reflects a negative variance in the General Fund final budgeted versus actual revenues. Resources available for appropriations were $1,021,742 less than the final budgeted amount because fine and forfeiture receipts and the sales tax refund were lower than anticipated. Exhibit 5 also reflects a $2.32 million positive variance in the General Fund’s final budget versus actual expenditures. This was primarily made up of $1.5 million in instructional services, $113,000 million in ancillary services, and $905,000 in non-program charges; however expenditures exceeded budgeted amounts for system-wide support services by $196,000.

Categorization of General Fund Expenditures

(Expenditures presented on modified accrual basis of accounting.) Capital Assets Capital assets decreased by $4,146,380 (or .46%) from the previous year. This was largely due to current year depreciation. The following is a summary of the capital assets, net of depreciation at year end.

Additional information on the Board’s capital assets can be found in Note III.A.5. to the financial statements. Debt Outstanding The Board is limited by North Carolina General Statutes with regards to the types of debt it can issue and for what purpose that debt can be used. The County holds virtually all debt issued for school capital construction. Readers desiring more detailed information on the district’s long-term debt/obligation activity associated with school bus installment purchases should see Note III.B.10 to the financial statements.

I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies of the Guilford County Board of Education 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 Guilford County Board of Education (the “Board”) is a Local Education Agency empowered by Chapter

115C of the North Carolina General Statutes (“NCGS” or “G.S.”) with the responsibility to oversee and control all activities related to public school education in Guilford County, North Carolina. The Board receives local, state, and federal government funding and must adhere to the legal requirements of each funding entity.

The Board is governed by an eleven-member governing body elected by the citizens of Guilford County

(the “County”). The County provides approximately 31% of the total funding for the Board and has the authority to control how its funding is spent. However, beyond this, the County does not have legal authority over the Board’s budget. Accordingly, the Board is not considered to be a component unit of the County.

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, except for fiduciary activities. Interfund services provided and used are not eliminated in the process of consolidation. These statements distinguish between the governmental and business-type activities of the Board. Governmental activities generally are financed through intergovernmental revenues and other non-exchange 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, including its fiduciary funds. Separate statements for each fund category - governmental, proprietary and fiduciary - 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. The fiduciary funds are presented separately.

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 non-exchange transactions or ancillary activities. Operating expenses for the proprietary funds include all costs of operations such as costs of sales, salaries and benefits, materials and supplies, depreciation, contracted services, indirect costs, loss on disposal of capital assets and other miscellaneous operating expenses.

I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) B. Basis of Presentation 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 required to be accounted for in another fund. This fund is the “Local Current Expense Fund,” which is mandated by state law [G. S. 115C-426].

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. 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 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.

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 County appropriations, restricted sales tax monies, proceeds from the County bonds issued for public school construction, lottery proceeds, as well as certain state assistance.

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. The Board reports the following fiduciary funds: Private-Purpose Trusts - Private-Purpose Trust Funds are accounted for in a manner similar to proprietary

funds. The Board has eleven such funds: the E. P. Pearce, Jr. Scholarship Trust Fund, the Elizabeth Hanner Holt Scholarship Trust Fund, the Bill Vielkanowitz Scholarship Fund, the Southeast High School Scholarship Fund, the A. B. Hunter Scholarship Fund, the Nathanael Greene Scholarship Fund, the Ora Sublett Scholarship Fund, the Hanner Scholarship Fund, the Ben L. Smith Scholarship Fund, the Dr. Randall S. Brooks, Sr. Preschool Handicapped Fund, and the Violet G. Hutchens Music Fund. The Ben L. Smith Scholarship Fund, funded by private contributions, was established by the Board to recognize and honor professional staff members and to help make possible further study for worthy staff members. The Dr. Randall S. Brooks, Sr. Preschool Handicapped Fund is funded by private contributions and is to be used to purchase items and provide services that are not covered by federal and state monies for students in the preschool handicapped program. The Violet G. Hutchens Music Fund, funded by private contributions, is to be used for musical training and the purchase of musical instruments and supplies at Johnson Street Elementary, Oak Hill Elementary, Ferndale Middle, and High Point Central High School. Nonexpendable principal assets in the eight remaining Scholarship Funds of $10,190, $61,000, $18,870, $6,000, $10,000, $8,106, $220,000 and $220,168, respectively, are maintained in these funds, the earnings of which are used to fund scholarship grants for graduating seniors.

I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) C. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting Government-Wide, Proprietary and Fiduciary Fund Financial Statements. The government-wide,

proprietary and fiduciary 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. Payments made under capital leases are also reported as expenditures.

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 are 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.

All governmental and business-type activities and enterprise funds of the Board follow FASB Statements and Interpretations issued on or before November 30, 1989, Accounting Principles Board Opinions, and Accounting Research Bulletins, unless those pronouncements conflict with GASB pronouncements.

D. Budgetary Data

The Board’s budgets are adopted as required by the North Carolina General Statutes. Annual budgets are adopted for all funds, except for the individual schools’ special revenue funds and trust funds, as required by North Carolina General Statutes. Per State law no budget is required for individual school funds. All appropriations lapse at fiscal year-end. All budgets are prepared using the modified accrual basis of accounting. Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the purpose level for all annually budgeted funds. The Finance Officer, with the approval of the Superintendent, is authorized by the governing board to transfer monies not to exceed 10% between functions of the same fund. Such transfers must be reported to the governing board at its next regular meeting. Transfers in excess of this amount or transfers between funds require governing board approval. Amendments which alter the county appropriation or transfer monies to or from the Capital Outlay Fund also require the approval of the Guilford County Board of Commissioners.

A budget calendar is included in G. S. 115C, Article 31, and prescribes the last day on which certain steps of the budget procedure are to be performed. The following schedule lists the tasks to be performed and the date each is required to be completed.

Month of July The Board of Education must adopt its balanced budget resolution after the Board of County

Commissioners has decided upon the amount of appropriations to be provided by the County or after the appeal procedures as set forth in state law [G.S. 115C-431].

E. Assets, Deferred Outflows, Liabilities, Deferred Inflows and Net Position/Fund Balances

1. Deposits and Investments

All deposits of the Board are made in board-designated official depositories and are secured as required by state law [G. S. 115C-444]. The Board may designate, as an official depository, any bank or savings association whose principal office is located in North Carolina. Also, the Board may establish time deposit accounts such as NOW and SuperNOW accounts, money market accounts, and certificates of deposit. The Board also has money credited in its name with the State Treasurer and may issue state warrants against these funds.

State law [G. S. 115C-443] authorizes the Board to invest in obligations of the United States or obligations fully guaranteed both as to principal and interest by the United States; obligations of the state of North Carolina; bonds and notes of any North Carolina local government or public authority; obligations of certain non-guaranteed federal agencies; certain high quality issues of commercial paper and bankers’ acceptances; the North Carolina Capital Management Trust (NCCMT), an SEC-registered (2a-7) money market mutual fund; and the North Carolina State Treasurer’s Short-Term Investment Fund (STIF).

The STIF is managed by the staff of the Department of State Treasurer and operated in accordance with state laws and regulations. It is not registered with the SEC. It consists of an internal portion and an external portion in which the Board participates. Investments are restricted by state law to those enumerated in G. S. 147-69.1.

The Board’s investments are reported at amortized cost or at fair value determined by either quoted market prices or a matrix pricing model. Bank deposits and the NCCMT are measured at amortized cost, which is the NCCMT’s share price. The STIF securities are reported at cost and maintain a constant $1 per share value. Under the authority of G. S. 147-69.3, no unrealized gains or losses of the STIF are distributed to external participants of the fund.

I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) E. Assets, Deferred Outflows, Liabilities, Deferred Inflows and Net Position/Fund balances

2. Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Board pools money from several funds to facilitate disbursement and investment and to maximize investment income. Therefore, all cash and investments are essentially demand deposits and are considered cash and cash equivalents.

3. Inventories Inventories are valued at cost using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) flow assumption. The inventories of the

Board’s General Fund consist of expendable supplies. Expendable supplies are recorded as expenditures when purchased. These inventories do not reflect current appropriable resources; therefore, an equivalent portion of fund balance is nonspendable.

Proprietary fund inventories consist of food and supplies and are recorded as expenses when

consumed. 4. Capital Assets Donated assets received prior to June 15, 2015 are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of

donation or forfeiture. Donated capital assets received after June 15, 2015 are recorded at acquisition value. All other capital assets are recorded at original cost. Improvements are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful lives of the related capital assets.

It is the policy of the Board to capitalize all capital assets costing more than $5,000 with an estimated

useful life of two or more years. In addition, other items which are purchased and used in large quantities such as student desks and library books are capitalized. The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend asset lives is not capitalized.

Capital assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful

lives: Land improvements 15 to 20 years Buildings 20 to 45 years Equipment and furniture 10 to 15 years Vehicles 6 to 14 years Computer equipment 3 years Depreciation for buildings and equipment that serve multiple purposes cannot be allocated ratably

and is, therefore, reported separately as “depreciation expense” on the Statement of Activities.

I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) E. Assets, Deferred Outflows, Liabilities, Deferred Inflows and Net Position/Fund Balances

5. Deferred Outflows and Inflows of Resources In addition to assets, the Statement of Net Position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred outflow of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred outflows of resources, represents a consumption of net position that applies to a future period and so will not be recognized as an expense or expenditure until then. The Board has two items that meet this criterion – a pension related deferral and contributions made to the pension plan in the current fiscal year. The Statement of Net Position also reports a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources, represents an acquisition of net position that applies to a future period and so will not be recognized as revenue until then. The Board has pension related deferrals that meet this criterion.

6. Long-Term Obligations In the government-wide financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are

reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities. 7. Compensated Absences The Board follows the state’s policy for vacation and sick leave. Employees may accumulate up to thirty

(30) days earned vacation leave with such leave being fully vested when earned. The Board’s liability for accumulated earned vacation and the salary-related payments as of June 30, 2016 is recorded in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements on the FIFO basis. An estimate has been made based on prior years’ records, of the current portion of compensated absences.

The sick leave policy of the Board provides for an unlimited accumulation of earned sick leave. Sick

leave does not vest, but unused sick leave accumulated at the time of retirement may be used in the determination of length of service for retirement benefit purposes. Since the Board has no obligation for accumulated sick leave until it is actually taken, no accrual for sick leave has been made.

8. Net Position/Fund Balances Net Position Net position in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements are classified as net

investment in capital assets; restricted; and unrestricted. Restricted net position represents constraints on resources that are either externally imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, or the laws or regulations of other governments, or imposed by law through state statute.

Fund Balances In the governmental fund financial statements, fund balances are composed of five classifications

designed to disclose the hierarchy of constraints placed on how each fund’s fund balance can be spent.

The governmental fund types classify fund balances as follows:

Nonspendable Fund Balance – This classification includes amounts that cannot be spent because they are either (a) not in spendable form or (b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.

Inventories - portion of fund balance that is not an available resource because it represents the year-end balance or ending inventories, which are not spendable resources

E. Assets, Deferred Outflows, Liabilities, Deferred Inflows and Net Position/Fund Balances

8. Net Position/Fund Balances

Nonspendable Fund Balance Self-insurance deposits - portion of fund balance that is not an available resource because it represents the year-end balance of deposits on hand with the Local Government Excess Liability Fund, Inc. and the Local Government Property Insurance Deductible Fund, Inc. to provide reserves for the Board’s retained risks.

Restricted Fund Balance – This classification includes amounts that are restricted to specific purposes externally imposed by creditors or imposed by law.

Restricted for Stabilization by State Statute - portion of fund balance that is restricted by State Statute [G.S. 115C-425(a)].

Restricted for Capital Projects - portion of fund balance that is restricted by State Statute for the construction or purchase of certain capital assets [G.S. 159-18 through 22]. Restricted for Individual Schools - revenue sources restricted for expenditures for the various clubs and organizations, athletic events, and various fund raising activities for which they were collected.

Committed Fund Balance – portion of fund balance that can only be used for specific purposes imposed by majority vote by quorum of the Board’s governing body (highest level of decision making authority) and in certain instances approval by the County’s governing body is required. Any changes or removal of specific purpose requires majority action by the governing bodies that approved the original action.

Red Light Camera Program - portion of fund balance that the Board has approved to use for capital outlay purposes.

Buses - portion of fund balance that the Board has approved to use for activity bus purchases. PACE Project - portion of fund balance that the Board has approved to use to sustain the PACE project for an additional year beyond the federal grant funding.

Assigned Fund Balance – portion of fund balance that the Board intends to use for specific purposes.

Subsequent year’s budget - portion of fund balance that is appropriated in the next year’s budget. The governing body approves the appropriation.

Unassigned Fund Balance – the portion of fund balance that has not been restricted, committed, or assigned to specific purposes or other funds. The General Fund is the only fund that can report a positive unassigned fund balance.

b. Explanation of certain differences between the governmental-type Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances and the government-wide Statement of Activities.

The governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balance includes a reconciliation between net changes in fund balances – total governmental funds and changes in net position – governmental activities as reported in the government-wide Statement of Activities. The net adjustment of $20,861,761 consists of the following elements:

Description Amount

Capital expenditures recorded in the fund statements but capitalized as assets in the Statement of Activities $ 27,733,719

Depreciation expense, the allocation of those assets over

their useful lives, is recorded on the Statement of Activities but not in the fund statements (30,062,853)

Increase in estimated liabilities for retained risks (205,223)

Decrease in reserve for inventories (30,510) New debt issued during the year is recorded as a source of

funds on the fund statements; it has no effect on the Statement of Activities – it affects only the government-wide Statement of Net Position (2,156,025)

Principal payments on debt owed are recorded as a use of

funds on the fund statements but again affect only the Statement of Net Position in the government-wide statements 1,120,332

E. Assets, Deferred Outflows, Liabilities, Deferred Inflows and Net Position/Fund Balances 10. Defined Benefit Pension Plans

For purposes of measuring the net pension asset, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the Teachers’ and State Employees’ Retirement System (TSERS) and additions to/deductions from TSERS’ fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by TSERS. For this purpose, plan member contributions are recognized in the period in which the contributions are due. The Board’s employer contributions are recognized when due and the Board has a legal requirement to provide the contributions. Benefits and refunds are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the terms of TSERS. Investments are reported at fair value.

II. STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE, AND ACCOUNTABILITY

A. Excess of Expenditures over Appropriations

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, the Board reported expenditures in excess of the final amended budget in the amount of $196,143 at the function level for System-wide support services and transfers to other funds in the amount of $111,835. These amounts were not anticipated in the final budget amendment.

III. DETAIL NOTES ON ALL FUNDS

A. Assets

1. Deposits

All of the Board’s deposits are either insured or collateralized by using one of two methods. Under the Dedicated Method, all deposits exceeding the federal depository insurance coverage level are collateralized with securities held by the Board’s agent in the unit’s name. Under the Pooling Method, which is a collateral pool, all uninsured deposits are collateralized with securities held by the State Treasurer’s agent in the name of the State Treasurer. Since the State Treasurer is acting in a fiduciary capacity for the Board, these deposits are considered to be held by the agent in the entity’s name. The amount of the pledged collateral is based on an approved averaging method for non-interest-bearing deposits and the actual current balance for interest-bearing deposits. Depositories using the Pooling Method report to the State Treasurer the adequacy of their pooled collateral covering uninsured deposits. The State Treasurer does not confirm this information with the Board or the escrow agent. Because of the inability to measure the exact amount of collateral pledged for the Board under the Pooling Method, the potential exists for undercollateralization, and this risk may increase in periods of high cash flows. However, the State Treasurer of North Carolina enforces strict standards of financial stability for each depository that collateralizes public deposits under the Pooling Method. The Board has no policy regarding custodial credit risk for deposits.

At June 30, 2016, the Board had deposits with banks with a carrying amount of $26,288,294. The bank balances with financial institutions and the State Treasurer were $33,405,871 and $1,728,547, respectively. Of the bank balance, $3,662,042 was covered by federal depository insurance and $31,472,376 was covered by collateral held by authorized escrow agents in the name of the State Treasurer.

a. Teachers' and State Employees' Retirement System

Plan Description. The Board is a participating employer in the statewide Teachers’ and State Employees’ Retirement System (TSERS), a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan administered by the state of North Carolina. TSERS membership is comprised of employees of the state (state agencies and institutions), universities, community colleges, and certain proprietary component units along with the employees of Local Education Agencies and charter schools. Article 1 of G.S. Chapter 135 assigns the authority to establish and amend benefit provisions to the North Carolina General Assembly. Management of the plan is vested in the TSERS Board of Trustees, which consists of 13 members – nine appointed by the Governor, one appointed by the State Senate, one appointed by the State House of Representatives, and the State Treasurer and State Superintendent, who serve as ex-officio members. The Teachers’ and State Employees’ Retirement System is included in the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for the state of North Carolina. The state’s CAFR includes financial statements and required supplementary information for TSERS. That report may be obtained by writing to the Office of the State Controller, 1410 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1410, by calling (919) 981-5454, or at www.osc.nc.gov.

Benefits Provided. TSERS provides retirement and survivor benefits. Retirement benefits are determined as 1.82% of the member’s average final compensation times the member’s years of creditable service. A member’s average final compensation is calculated as the average of a member’s four highest consecutive years of compensation. General employee plan members are eligible to retire with full retirement benefits at age 65 with five years of creditable service (or 10 years of creditable service for members joining TSERS on or after August 1, 2011), at age 60 with 25 years of creditable service, or at any age with 30 years of creditable service. General employee plan members are eligible to retire with partial retirement benefits at age 50 with 20 years of creditable service or at age 60 with five years of creditable service (or 10 years of creditable service for members joining TSERS on or after August 1, 2011). Survivor benefits are available to eligible beneficiaries of members who die while in active service or within 180 days of their last day of service and who have either completed 20 years of creditable service regardless of age or have completed five years of service and have reached age 60 (10 years for members joining on or after August 1, 2011). Eligible beneficiaries may elect to receive a monthly Survivor’s Alternate Benefit for life or a return of the member’s contributions. The plan does not provide for automatic post-retirement benefit increases. Increases are contingent upon actuarial gains of the plan. TSERS plan members who are LEOs are eligible to retire with full retirement benefits at age 55 with five years of creditable service as an officer (or 10 years of creditable service for members joining TSERS on or after August 1, 2011), or at any age with 30 years of creditable service. LEO plan members are eligible to retire with partial retirement benefits at age 50 with 15 years of creditable service as an officer. Survivor benefits are available to eligible beneficiaries of LEO members who die while in active service or within 180 days of their last day of service and who also have either completed 20 years of creditable service regardless of age, or have completed 15 years of service as a LEO and have reached age 50, or have completed five years of creditable service as a LEO and have reached age 55, or have completed 15 years of creditable service as a LEO if killed in the line of duty. Eligible beneficiaries may elect to receive a monthly Survivor’s Alternate Benefit for life or a return of the member’s contributions. Contributions. Contribution provisions are established by General Statute 135-8 and may be amended only by the North Carolina General Assembly. Board employees are required to contribute 6% of their compensation. Employer contributions are actuarially determined and set annually by the TSERS Board of Trustees. The Board’s contractually required contribution rate for the year ended June 30, 2016, was 9.15% of covered payroll, actuarially determined as an amount that, when combined with employee contributions, is expected to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year. Contributions to the pension plan from the Board were $35,522,657 for the year ended June 30, 2016. Refunds of Contributions. Board employees who have terminated service as a contributing member of TSERS, may file an application for a refund of their contributions. By state law, refunds to members with at least five years of service include 4% interest. State law requires a 60 day waiting period after service termination before the refund may be paid. The acceptance of a refund payment cancels the individual’s right to employer contributions or any other benefit provided by TSERS.

1. Pension Plan and Other Postemployment Obligations a. Teachers' and State Employees' Retirement System Pension Liabilities, Pension Expense, and Deferred Outflows of Resources and Deferred Inflows of Resources Related to Pensions. At June 30, 2016, the Board reported a liability of $112,178,901 for its proportionate share of the net pension liability. The net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2015. The total pension liability used to calculate the net pension asset was determined by an actuarial valuation as of December 31, 2014. The total pension liability was then rolled forward to the measurement date of June 30, 2015 utilizing update procedures incorporating the actuarial assumptions. The Board’s proportion of the net pension liability was based on a projection of the Board’s long-term share of future payroll covered by the pension plan, relative to the projected future payroll covered by the pension plan of all participating TSERS employers, actuarially determined. At June 30, 2015 and at June 30, 2014, the Board’s proportion was 3.044% and 3.052%, respectively. For the year ended June 30, 2016, the Board recognized pension expense of $10,122,980. At June 30, 2016, the Board reported deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions from the following sources:

Deferred Deferred Outflows of Inflows of Resources Resources Change in proportion and differences between Board contributions and proportionate share of contributions $ 538,250 $ 1,921,990 Board contributions subsequent to the measurement date 35,522,657 - Differences between expected and actual experience - 12,754,720 Net difference between projected and actual earnings on pension plan investments - 12,153,636 Totals $ 36,060,907 $ 26,830,346

$35,522,657 reported as deferred outflows of resources related to pensions resulting from Board contributions subsequent to the measurement date will be recognized as a decrease of the net pension liability in the year ended June 30, 2017. Other amounts reported as deferred inflows of resources related to pensions will be recognized in pension expense as follows:

Actuarial Assumptions. The total pension liability in the December 31, 2014 actuarial valuation was determined using the following actuarial assumptions, applied to all periods included in the measurement:

Inflation 3.0 percent Salary increases 4.25 to 9.10 percent, including inflation and productivity factor Investment rate of return 7.25 percent, net of pension plan investment expense, including inflation

The plan currently uses mortality tables that vary by age, gender, employee group (i.e. general, law enforcement officer) and health status (i.e. disabled and healthy). The current mortality rates are based on published tables and based on studies that cover significant portions of the U.S. population. The healthy mortality rates also contain a provision to reflect future mortality improvements. The actuarial assumptions used in the December 31, 2014 valuation were based on the results of an actuarial experience study for the period January 1, 2005 through December 31, 2009. Future ad hoc COLA amounts are not considered to be substantively automatic and are therefore not included in the measurement. The projected long-term investment returns and inflation assumptions are developed through review of current and historical capital markets data, sell-side investment research, consultant whitepapers, and historical performance of investment strategies. Fixed income return projections reflect current yields across the U.S. Treasury yield curve and market expectations of forward yields projected and interpolated for multiple tenors and over multiple year horizons. Global public equity return projections are established through analysis of the equity risk premium and the fixed income return projections. Other asset categories and strategies’ return projections reflect the foregoing and historical data analysis. These projections are combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation. The target allocation and best estimates of arithmetic real rates of return for each major asset class as of June 30, 2015 are summarized in the following table:

Long-Term Target Expected Real Asset Class Allocation Rate of Return Fixed Income 29.0% 2.2% Global Equity 42.0% 5.8% Real Estate 8.0% 5.2% Alternatives 8.0% 9.8% Credit 7.0% 6.8% Inflation Protection 6.0% 3.4%

Total 100.0%

The information above is based on 30 year expectations developed with the consulting actuary for the 2014 asset liability and investment policy study for the North Carolina Retirement Systems, including TSERS. The long-term nominal rates of return underlying the real rates of return are arithmetic annualized figures. The real rates of return are calculated from nominal rates by multiplicatively subtracting a long-term inflation assumption of 3.19%. All rates of return and inflation are annualized. Discount Rate. The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.25%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions from plan members will be made at the current contribution rate and that contributions from employers will be made at statutorily required rates, actuarially determined. Based on these assumptions, the pension plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of the current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability. Sensitivity of the Board’s Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Asset to Changes in the Discount Rate. The following presents the Board’s proportionate share of the net pension liability calculated using the discount rate of 7.25%, as well as what the Board’s proportionate share of the net pension asset or net pension liability would be if it were calculated using a discount rate that is 1-percentage-point lower (6.25%) or 1-percentage-point higher (8.25%) than the current rate:

1% Discount 1% Decrease Rate Increase (6.25%) (7.25%) (8.25%) Board’s proportionate share of the net pension liability (asset) $ 337,627,535 $ 112,178,901 $ (79,140,261)

a. Healthcare Benefits Plan Description. The postemployment healthcare benefits are provided through a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit plan administered by the Executive Administrator and the Board of Trustees of the Comprehensive Major Medical Plan (the Plan). The Executive Administrator and the Board of Trustees of the Plan establishes premium rates except as may be established by the General Assembly in an appropriation act. The Plan's benefit and contribution provisions are established by Chapter 135-7, Article 1, and Chapter 135, Article 3 of the General Statutes and may be amended only by the North Carolina General Assembly. By General Statute, the Plan accumulates contributions from employers and any earnings on those contributions in the Retiree Health Benefit Fund. These assets shall be used to provide health benefits to retired and disabled employees and their applicable beneficiaries. These contributions are irrevocable. Also by law, these assets are not subject to the claims of creditors of the employers making contributions to the Plan.

The state of North Carolina issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information for the State's Comprehensive Major Medical Plan (also, referred to as the State Health Plan). An electronic version of this report is available by accessing the North Carolina Office of the State Controller's Internet home page http://www.ncosc.net/ and clicking on "Financial Reports," or by calling the State Controller's Financial Reporting Section at (919) 981-5454. Funding Policy. The Comprehensive Major Medical Plan is administered by the Executive Administrator and Board of Trustees of the Plan, which establish premium rates except as may be established by the General Assembly in an appropriation act. The healthcare benefits for retired and disabled employees are the same as for active employees, except that the coverage becomes secondary when former employees become eligible for Medicare. For employees first hired on and after October 1, 2006, future coverage as retired employees is subject to the requirement that future retirees have 20 or more years of retirement service credit in order to receive coverage on a noncontributory basis. Employees first hired on and after October 1, 2006 with 10, but less than 20, years of retirement service credit are eligible for coverage on a partially contributory basis. For such retirees, the state will pay 50% of the State Health Plan's total noncontributory premium. For employees hired before October 1, 2006, healthcare benefits are provided to retirees (at no charge to the retirees) who have at least five years of contributing retirement membership prior to disability or retirement. In addition, persons who became surviving spouses of retirees prior to October 1, 1986, receive the same coverage as retirees at the state's expense.

Contributions are determined as a percentage of covered monthly payroll. Annually, the monthly contribution rates to the Plan, which are intended to finance benefits and administrative expenses on a pay-as-you-go basis, are determined by the General Assembly in the Appropriations Bill. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Board paid all annual required contributions to the Plan for postemployment healthcare benefits of $21,740,642, $21,807,136 and $21,042,536, respectively. These contributions represented 5.60%, 5.49% and 5.40% of covered payroll, respectively.

III. DETAIL NOTES ON ALL FUNDS (CONTINUED) 2. Other Postemployment Benefits b. Long-Term Disability Benefits

Plan Description. Short-term and long-term disability benefits are provided through the Disability Income Plan of North Carolina (DIPNC), a cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit plan. The DIPNC is administered by the Board of Trustees of the Teachers' and State Employees' Retirement System. Long-term disability benefits are payable as an other postemployment benefit from DIPNC after the conclusion of the short-term disability period or after salary continuation payments cease, whichever is later, for as long as an employee is disabled. Benefit and contribution provision are established by Chapter 135, Article 6, of the General Statutes and may be amended only by the North Carolina General Assembly. The Plan accumulates contributions from employees and any earnings on those contributions in the Disability Income Plan Trust Fund. The Plan does not provide for automatic post-retirement benefit increases. The state of North Carolina issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information for the DIPNC. An electronic version of this report is available by accessing the North Carolina Office of the State Controller's Internet home page http://www.ncosc.net/ and clicking on "Financial Reports," or by calling the State Controller's Financial Reporting Section at (919) 981-5454.

Funding Policy. An employee is eligible to receive long-term disability benefits provided the following requirements are met: (1) the employee has five or more years of contributing membership service in the Teachers' and State Employees' Retirement System of North Carolina, earned within 96 months prior to the end of the short-term disability period or cessation of salary continuation payments, whichever is later; (2) the employee must make application to receive long-term benefits within 180 days after the conclusion of the short-term disability period or after salary continuation payments cease or after monthly payments for Workers' Compensation cease (excluding monthly payments for permanent partial benefits), whichever is later; (3) the employee must be certified by the Medical Board to be mentally or physically disabled for the further performance of his/her usual occupation; (4) the disability must have been continuous, likely to be permanent, and incurred at the time of active employment; (5) the employee must not be eligible to receive an unreduced retirement benefit from the Retirement System; and (6) the employee must terminate employment as a permanent, full-time employee.

For members with five or more years of membership service as of July 31, 2007, the monthly long-term disability benefit is equal to 65% of one-twelfth of an employee's annual base rate of compensation last payable to the participant or beneficiary prior to the beginning of the short-term disability period, plus the like percentage of one-twelfth of the annual longevity payment to which the participant or beneficiary would be eligible. The monthly benefits are subject to a maximum of $3,900, per month reduced by any primary Social Security disability benefits and by monthly payments for Workers' Compensation to which the participant or beneficiary may be entitled. The monthly benefit shall be further reduced by the amount of any monthly payments from the Department of Veterans Affairs, any other federal agency or any payments made under the provisions of G.S.127A-108, to which the participant or beneficiary may be entitled on account of the same disability. Provided in any event, the benefits payable shall be no less than $10 a month.

It is payable so long as the member remains disabled and is in receipt of a primary Social Security disability benefit until eligible for an unreduced service retirement benefit. When an employee qualifies for an unreduced service retirement allowance from the Retirement System, the benefits payable from DIPNC will cease, and the employee will commence retirement under the TSERS.

The Board's contributions are established in the Appropriations Bill by the General Assembly. Benefit and contribution provisions are established by Chapter 135, Article 6, of the General Statutes and may be amended only by the North Carolina General Assembly. The contributions cannot be separated between the amounts that relate to other postemployment benefits and employment benefits for active employees. Those individuals who are receiving extended short-term disability benefit payments cannot be separated from the number of members currently eligible to receive disability benefits as another postemployment benefit. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Board paid all annual required contributions to the DIPNC for disability benefits of $1,591,726, $1,628,584 and $1,714,577, respectively.

7. Risk Management

The Board is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; injuries to employees; and natural disasters. The Board protects itself from potential loss through a combination of the purchase of commercial insurance for primary and/or excess liability coverage and self-funded risk retention. Self-funded risks are primarily for employee workers’ compensation.

The Board maintains general liability insurance coverage of $1 million per occurrence with a $3 million annual aggregate, and errors and omissions coverage of $2 million per occurrence including defense cost. The Board also maintains property insurance with a combined blanket limit of $2 billion. Flood and earthquake occurrence limit is $10 million each with a $10 million each aggregate. The property catastrophe limit is $450 million arising under one or more coverage’s in any one occurrence.

The Board also participates in the Teachers’ and State Employees’ Comprehensive Major Medical Plan (the Plan), a self-funded risk financing pool of the state administered by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina. The Board pays the full cost of coverage for employees enrolled in the Comprehensive Major Medical Plan.

The Board is self-insured for workers’ compensation claims for employees paid from local and federal funds and carries excess workers’ compensation coverage for claims over $400,000. The state of North Carolina provides workers’ compensation coverage for employees to the extent they are paid from state funds.

In accordance with NCGS 115C-442, the Board’s employees who have custody of the Board’s monies at any given time are performance bonded through a commercial surety bond. The finance officer and superintendent are each bonded for $250,000. Remaining employees that have access to funds are bonded under a blanket bond for $100,000 with an additional $25,000 for forgery.

7. Risk Management

The Board is a member of the Local Government Excess Liability Fund, Inc. and the Local Government Property Insurance Deductible Fund, Inc., which are nonprofit corporations established by units of local government in Guilford County to administer the self-funding of liability coverage for certain retained risks that are not otherwise covered by purchased insurance. These nonprofit corporations administer various risk financing funds on behalf of its member governments.

Participation in these funds does not transfer risk of loss from the member government to the Fund. Fund balances are segregated by member and, in the event of loss, are available for claims payment by the respective member, on either a loan or withdrawal basis, depending on the provisions of the specific fund. As of June 30, 2016, the Board’s combined balance in the risk financing funds amounted to $3,062,590, which is recorded in the General Fund as self-funded insurance deposits. Of this balance, $692,366 is in discretionary funds that do not require the Board to reimburse the fund for claims paid. The remainder of the deposits is in revolving funds that require the Board to repay the Fund in subsequent years for claims paid by the Fund.

Changes in the claims liability for retained risks in 2015 and 2016 were as follows:

Beginning Current Claims Ending Balances Year Claims Payments Balances

Governmental activities 2014 - 2015 $ 2,706,004 $ - $ 1,273,177 $ 1,432,827 2015 - 2016 1,432,872 966,852 761,629 1,638,095

The Board also carries commercial coverage for all other risks of loss. There have been no significant reductions in insurance coverage in the prior year, and settled claims have not exceeded coverage in any of the last three fiscal years.

8. Construction Commitments

The Board had entered into several planned projects for school construction and improvements as of June 30, 2016. Outstanding commitments as of June 30, 2016 amounted to $85,595,749. The projects are commitments of the Capital Outlay Fund, which will be funded from the proceeds of county-issued bonds, restricted local option sales taxes, as well as other general county revenues and various state revenues.

9. Contingencies

At June 30, 2016, the Board was a defendant to various lawsuits and claims. In the opinion of the Board’s management and the Board’s legal counsel, the ultimate effect of these other lawsuits and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Board’s financial position.

The Finance Officer will use resources in the following hierarchy: federal funds, state funds, local non-Board funds, Board funds. For purposes of fund balance classification expenditures are to be spent from restricted fund balance first, followed in-order by committed fund balance, assigned fund balance and lastly unassigned fund balance. The Finance Officer has the authority to deviate from this policy if it is in the best interest of the Board.

The following information provides management and citizens with information on the portion of the General Fund’s fund balance that is available for appropriation.

Encumbrances are amounts needed to pay any commitments related to purchase orders and contracts that remain unperformed at year-end. General Fund $ 1,749,489

Capital Outlay Fund $ 95,060,526 IV. SUMMARY DISCLOSURE OF SIGNIFICANT CONTINGENCIES

Federal- and State-Assisted Programs

The Board has received proceeds from several federal and state grants. Periodic audits of these grants are required and certain costs may be questioned as not being appropriate expenditures under the grant agreements. Such audits could result in the refund of grant monies to the grantor agencies. Management believes that any required refunds will be immaterial. No provision has been made in the accompanying financial statements for the refund of grant monies.

ENTERPRISE FUNDS

Enterprise funds may be used to report any activity for which a fee is charged to external users for goods or services. Enterprise fund accounting is designed to highlight the extent to which fees and charges are sufficient to cover the costs of providing goods and services. It is often used for subsidized activities to highlight the cost of the subsidy. The Guilford County Board of Education (the “Board”) has two Enterprise Funds. The following section contains budgetary schedules for these funds to demonstrate legal compliance with state law (G.S. 115C-425 and 115C-450). MAJOR ENTERPRISE FUND School Food Service Fund – This fund accounts for the Board’s school food service program within the school system. It is subsidized by cash assistance and non-cash commodities provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. NON-MAJOR ENTERPRISE FUND After-School Care Enrichment Services Fund (“ACES”) – This fund accounts for the Board’s After School Care Enrichment Program which provides services at fifty-five of the Board’s elementary schools. All ACES programs were licensed by the North Carolina Division of Child Development and Early Education (“NC-DCDEE”) and all but one was eligible to accept Department of Social Services child care vouchers.

The difference between the Archdale and Gibsonville total direct rates and the reported city-wide rates areconsidered insignificant.

For FY 2011, city-wide rates are reported, as data to compute total direct rates is not available.

Guilford County, North Carolina, Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the Year Ended June 30, 2016.

Fiscal Year Taxes are Payable

All taxable property is subject to a county-wide tax. The general County direct rate differs from the county-widerate approved by the Board of Commissioners each fiscal year because direct rates are a weighted averagerate. The most significant differences are from certain registered motor vehicles levied at prior year tax rates inaccordance with North Carolina General Statutes.

Most property in unincorporated areas is subject to one of twenty-nine special fire district taxes. The fireprotections districts' direct rate is a combined rate as the impact of each individual fire district is consideredinsignificant. The direct rate is much lower than the individual rates approved by the Board of Commissionerseach fiscal year because direct rates are a weighted average rate and are impacted by assessed taxable valuesoutside the fire protection districts' boundaries.

Burlington's and Kernersville's total direct rates are computed only with regard to assessed taxable value inGuilford County.

Source:Statistical Profile published by the State Board of Education, NorthCarolina Department of Public Instruction.

In 2014-15, Guilford County Schools elected to participate in the Community Eligibility Provision

(CEP). CEP is a provision from the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 that allows schools and

local educational agencies (LEAs) with high poverty rates to provide free breakfast and lunch to all

students. CEP eliminates the burden of collecting household applications to determine eligibility for

school meals, relying instead on information from other means-tested programs such as the

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families.

Calculation of the Free and Reduced Lunch Percentage under the CEP model is as follows: (Number

of low income students per CEP data X 1.6%)/Total Student Enrollment.

Expenses do not include unallocated depreciation expense, After School CareEnrichment Services, or individual school funds.

Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards

Independent Auditors’ Report

Guilford County Board of Education Greensboro, North Carolina

We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to the financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Board of Education of Guilford County Board of Education (the “Board”), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprises the Board’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated November 22, 2016.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Board’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Board’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Board’s internal control.

A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.

- 120 -

Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements of the Board are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grants, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit and, accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.

Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the Board’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Board’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

Report on Compliance with Requirements Applicable to Each Major Federal Program and Internal Control Over Compliance in Accordance with Uniform Guidance and the State Single Audit Implementation Act

Independent Auditors’ Report

Guilford County Board of Education Greensboro, North Carolina

Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program We have audited the Guilford County Board of Education’s (the “Board”) compliance with the types of compliance requirements described in the OMB Compliance Supplement and the Audit Manual for Governmental Auditors in North Carolina, issued by the Local Government Commission, that could have a direct and material effect on each of the Board’s major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2016. The Board’s major federal programs are identified in the summary of auditors’ results section of the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs.

Management’s Responsibility Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to its federal programs.

Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for each of the Board’s major federal programs based on our audit of the types of compliance requirements referred to above. We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance), and the State Single Audit Implementation Act. Those standards, Uniform Guidance, and the State Single Audit Implementation Act require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Board’s compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.

We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion on compliance for each major federal program. However, our audit does not provide a legal determination on the Board’s compliance.

Opinion on Each Major Federal Program In our opinion, the Board complied, in all material respects, with the compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2016.

Report on Internal Control over Compliance Management of the Board is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above. In planning and performing our audit of compliance, we considered the Board’s internal control over compliance with requirements that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program in order to determine the auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on compliance and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with the Uniform Guidance, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Board’s internal control over compliance.

A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be deficiencies, significant deficiencies, or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.

The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements of the Uniform Guidance. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

Report on Compliance for Each Major State Program We have audited the Board’s compliance with the types of compliance requirements described in the Audit Manual for Governmental Auditors in North Carolina, issued by the Local Government Commission that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major state programs for the year ended June 30, 2016.the Board’s major state programs are identified in the summary of auditor’s results section of the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs.

Opinion on Each Major State Program In our opinion, the Board complied, in all material respects, with the compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major state programs for the year ended June 30, 2016.

Report on Internal Control over Compliance Management of the Board is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above. In planning and performing our audit, we considered the Board’s internal control over compliance with the requirements that could have a direct and material effect on a major state program in order to determine the auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on compliance and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with applicable sections of the Uniform Guidance and the State Single Audit Implementation Act, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Board’s internal control over compliance.

A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a state program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a state program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a state program that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be deficiencies, significant deficiencies, or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.

The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements of the Uniform Guidance. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.
