Schoharie saves more than $256,000 in energy costs, benefiting school, community and the environment At Schoharie Central School, every day is an opportunity to save energy dollars and the environment, and the district has achieved more than $256,000 in savings over the past five years through its innovative energy conservation program. The savings represent 14.7 percent of what energy costs would have been without the program. In environmental terms, the energy saved by reducing carbon dioxide emissions equates to 146 fewer autos traveling the nation's highways for one year. Cliff Haslun serves as Schoharie Central's energy manager, and the district works in partnership with Energy Education, Inc. to conserve energy and cut costs.
"By implementing best practices for energy use throughout our buildings,
we create savings, improve the learning environment and retain dollars
for education — it’s the right thing to do," said Schoharie
Superintendent Brian Sherman.

Schoharie Central School District finances receive another clean audit The independent public accounting firm of Marvin & Company CPAs recently completed an audit of Schoharie Central School District's finances for the school year ending on June 30, 2012. The audit report stated that the district had received an unqualified opinion, which is commonly referred to as a "clean audit." It is the goal each year of the Business Office staff to achieve this excellent audit result, and it speaks highly of the successful efforts of staff. According to Marvin & Company in the audit report, an unqualified opinion (clean audit) means that the combined financial statements "present fairly, in all material respects, the financial operations for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles." During a presentation of the report to the Schoharie Board of Education, Superintendent Brian D. Sherman recognized the Business Office staff for their accomplishments. A copy of the audit report is available for review in the Business Office or the office of the Clerk of the Board of Education from 8 a.m. to 4:40 p.m., Monday through Friday. [11/29/12]
