To the Honorable Members of the Board of Public Education for Bibb County and Citizens of Bibb County, Georgia:
As required by State law (O.C.G.A. 50-6-6), every general purpose local government must publish a complete set of audited financial statements at the close of each fiscal year. This report is published to fulfill that requirement for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018.
Based upon a comprehensive framework of internal control that it has established for this purpose, management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of the information contained in this report. Because the cost of internal control should not exceed anticipated benefits, the objective is to provide reasonable, rather than absolute assurance that the financial statements are free of any material misstatements.
Mauldin & Jenkins, Certified Public Accountants, LLC, has issued an unmodified ("clean") opinion on the Bibb County School District's financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2018. The independent auditor's report is located at the front of the financial section of this report. A single audit was also conducted to meet the 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). The results of the Single Audit are presented in the last section of this report.
Management's discussion and analysis (MD&A) immediately follows the independent auditor's report and provides a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis of the basic financial statements. MD&A complements this letter of transmittal and should be read in conjunction with it.
PROFILE OF THE BIBB COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT
Bibb County, the 55th county formed in Georgia, was created in 1822 and built up to support Macon, a town which had sprung up across the Ocmulgee River from the frontier post known as Fort Hawkins. Houston, Jones, Monroe and Twiggs counties gave up territory to create Bibb, which takes its name from a distinguished Georgian, Dr. William Wyatt Bibb. He was Alabama's first elected Governor. Macon bears the name of a North Carolinian, Nathaniel Macon.
On July 31, 2012, the voters of Macon and Bibb County approved Georgia House Bill 1171, creating a consolidated Macon-Bibb County government with a nine-member commission led by an elected mayor who serves as the president of the Board of Commissioners. The new Macon-Bibb County government was sworn in on Tuesday, December 31, 2013 before a crowd of hundreds at City Hall, unifying the city and county 17 months after voters approved consolidation and nearly a century after the idea was first seriously proposed. The merger of the city and county became effective on January 1, 2014. The new governmental entity is called Macon-Bibb County. The Bibb County School District is a political subdivision of the State of Georgia, the boundaries of which are coextensive in the territorial limits of Macon-Bibb County. The District is separate from and legally and fiscally independent of the Board of Commissioners and all other political subdivisions in the state. The District is the only public school district in Macon-Bibb County and is vested, pursuant to constitutional authority, with the power to conduct a system of public education within its boundaries.
The Board of Public Education for Bibb County (Board) is the official governing body of the District and as such is responsible for the operation of all public schools within Macon-Bibb County. Annually, the Board elects a President, Vice-President, and Treasurer. The Superintendent also serves as an ex-officio Secretary of the Board. The Superintendent is appointed by the Board for a term that is determined by the Board. As its Chief Executive Officer, the Superintendent has general supervisory and administrative responsibility for all departments and personnel of the District. The Georgia Constitution provides that the management and control of the School District shall be under the Board of Education. The eight elected Board members have policy and decision-making authority.

The school district's first locally approved charter school (Academy for Classical Education ACE) opened its doors on Monday, August 4, 2014 with 759 kindergarten through 8th grade students, with intentions of adding one additional
grade each year. As of June 30, 2018, ACE had 1,541 students in kindergarten through eleventh grade. The school
is located in North Bibb County in a partially renovated 200,000 square foot former corporate building sitting on 39
acres. According to the founders of ACE, former Bibb County School District Educators Laura Perkins and Esterine Stokes, an ACE classical education means extensive Latin study that starts in the 3rd grade and continues in every
subsequent grade. The mission of ACE is to build the foundation of knowledge and critical thinking skills necessary for
children to become independent learners for life.
The Bibb County School District embraces a long held tradition of excellence in education and is committed to providing achievement and performance for every school, for every classroom, and for every child. A pervasive belief within this system of schools is that each student, regardless of socio-economic status, race, neighborhood, or family structure, deserves an education that will establish a foundation for life-long success. The full-time student enrollment in October 2017 was 24,110, an increase of 122 over the prior year. Regardless of economic status, 100% of our students are eligible for meal service at no charge because of the Community Eligibility Provision, which is part of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 of the National School Lunch Program (NSLP). The District employs approximately 3,359 employees, including over 1,600 teachers. It is the responsibility of each employee within the District, regardless of job title, to do his/her part to provide a thorough and efficient educational program for all students. Through collaborative efforts, District employees ensure that all pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade students attending Bibb County schools are provided a high quality education in a safe and comfortable environment and that human and technological resources are effectively utilized in preparing graduates for post-high school objectives. The Bibb County School District recognizes its obligation to the greater community to create an educational system that will encourage community growth and enhance the quality of life for all citizens.
The standard curricula provide a solid educational foundation for the students served in our twenty-two elementary, six middle, and six high schools. Included in these numbers are three elementary, one middle school, and five high school magnet programs as well as a college and career academy that provides CTAE courses aligned to post-secondary credentials. Students from throughout the District may apply to attend any of the magnet schools. Elementary magnet offerings include math and science, fine arts, and communicative arts.
Additionally, there are three specialty programs designed to serve specific student populations. Northwoods Academy serves regular pre-kindergarten students along with special needs students in collaborative environments. Elam Alexander Academy is a community-based delivery system that serves severely emotionally disturbed/behavioral disordered students and students with autism from Macon-Bibb County as well as six surrounding counties. The Bibb County Alternative School (currently known as SOAR Academy) provides a structured and positive learning environment in an alternative setting for students who have chronic aggressive behavior issues and have gone through the documented Response to Intervention (RTI) process without positive results.

The District is required to adopt an initial budget for the fiscal year no later than June 30th preceding the beginning of the fiscal year on July 1st. This annual budget serves as the foundation for the Bibb County School District's financial planning and control. Effective with the Fiscal Year 2017 budget, the budget is now adopted at the legal level of budgetary control which is the departmental level. The District converted to a new accounting software system (MUNIS) during the FY2016-2017 school year. Due to this conversion, the legal level is now at the departmental level instead of the previous budget center level. The Superintendent has broad discretion to delegate the authority to transfer operational appropriations within the departmental level as necessary to ensure the efficient operation of schools and departments within the District.

LONG-TERM FINANCIAL PLANNING
The Finance Division provides Multi-Year General Fund Projections to the Board of Education annually during budget sessions. This document is continually adjusted as reasonable assumptions about future trends are replaced with more concrete information. Over the past three years, the percentage of General Fund Balance to General Fund Expenditures has been 13.5%, 16.9% and 16.0%.
FINANCIAL POLICIES AND LEGISLATION
Fund Balance Board policy establishes certain expectations related to fund balance. As of June 30, 2018, total fund balance in the General Fund was 13.0% of budgeted expenditures, well within the required minimum of 8%.
Internal Controls Management of the District is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure which is designed to ensure that the assets are protected from loss or theft and to ensure that adequate accounting data is compiled to allow for the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The internal control structure is 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 benefit likely to be derived; and (2) the valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management.
As a recipient of federal, state, and local financial assistance, the District is also responsible for ensuring that an adequate internal control structure is in place to ensure and document compliance with applicable laws and regulations related to these programs. The internal control structure is subject to periodic evaluation by management.
Budgetary Controls The District maintains budgetary controls to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual appropriated budget approved by the Board of Public Education for Bibb County. Activities of the general, capital projects, and special revenue funds are included in the annual appropriated budget. The level of budgetary control is established by program within an individual fund. As demonstrated by the statements and schedules included in the financial section of this report, the District continues to meet its responsibility for sound financial management.
The District is required to adopt a final budget no later than June 30th at the close of each fiscal year. An administrative budget review team aligns requests with priorities and proposed expenditures with anticipated revenues to arrive at a budget for consideration by the Superintendent and the Board of Education. In accordance with local board policy and state law, two public hearings are held to provide an opportunity for community response to the proposed budget.

AWARDS AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Certificates of Achievement and Excellence The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the Bibb County School District for its comprehensive annual financial report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017. This was the nineteenth consecutive year the School District has achieved this prestigious award. The Certificate of Achievement is a prominent national award recognizing conformity with the highest standards for preparation of state and local governmental financial reports. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, a government unit must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized comprehensive annual financial report whose contents conform to program standards. The CAFR must satisfy both generally accepted accounting principles and applicable legal requirements. A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe that our current comprehensive annual financial report conforms to the Certificate of Achievement Program's requirements and we are submitting it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate. We wish to express appreciation to Vicki Hulett, Executive Director of Accounting, Carol Tims, Financial Assistant to Chief Financial Officer and the entire Accounting Department Staff without whose dedicated and committed efforts this report could not have been completed. We also acknowledge the active participation and professional support of Mauldin & Jenkins. Audit Partner Miller Edwards and the staff of Mauldin & Jenkins, particularly Hope Pendergrass, have been instrumental to the completion of this comprehensive annual financial report. We also extend appreciation to the members of the Board of Public Education for Bibb County for their interest and support in planning and conducting the financial operations of the District in a responsible and progressive manner.

bibb county school district
independent audit report
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Members of the Board of Education of the Bibb County School District
Macon, Georgia
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the discretely presented component unit, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Bibb County School District as of and for the year ended June 30, 2018, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Bibb County School District's basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting principles 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.
300 MULBERRY STREET, SUITE 300 POST OFFICE BOX 1877 MACON, GEORGIA 31202-1877 478-464-8000 FAX 478-464-8051 www.mjcpa.com MEMBERS OF THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
Opinions
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the discretely presented component unit, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Bibb County School District as of June 30, 2018, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows, thereof, and the budgetary comparison for the General Fund for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis of Matter
As discussed in Note 13, the Bibb County School District implemented Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Post-employment Benefits Other Than Pensions, as of July 1, 2017. This standard significantly changed the accounting for the Bibb County School District's net other post-employment benefits (OPEB) liability and the related disclosures. Our opinions are not modified with respect to this matter.
Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management's Discussion and Analysis (on pages 4 through 11), the schedules of proportionate share of the net pension liability, the schedules of pension contributions, the schedules of proportionate share of the net OPEB liability, and the schedules of OPEB contributions (on pages 69 through 79) be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.

Other Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the Bibb County School District's basic financial statements. The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and schedules; schedule of expenditures of federal 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 the schedule of expenditures of special purpose local option sales tax proceeds, as required by the Official Code of Georgia 48-8-121, as listed in the table of contents, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The introductory and statistical sections are also presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.
The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and schedules, schedule of expenditures of federal awards, and schedule of expenditures of special purpose local option sales tax proceeds (collectively the "supplementary information") 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 supplementary information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements 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 January 28, 2019, on our consideration of the Bibb County School District's internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements, and other matters. The purpose of that report solely 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 effectiveness of Bibb County School District's 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 Bibb County School District's internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

management discussion and analysis
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
As administration of the Bibb County School District, we offer readers of the Bibb County School District's financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the District for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with additional information that we have furnished in our letter of transmittal, which can be found on pages i-vii of this report.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Key financial highlights for FY2018 are as follows:
The assets and deferred outflows of the Bibb County School District exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows at the close of the most recent fiscal year by $152,708,024. This amount includes the negative unrestricted net position of $334,005,828 which is primarily composed of the District's proportionate share of net pension liability related to the implementation of GASB Statement No.68 Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions and our proportionate share of net other postemployment benefit liability related to the implementation of GASB Statement No.75 Accounting and Financial Reporting for Post-Employment Benefits other than Pensions.
The Bibb County School District's total net position decreased $183,917,799. This decrease is primarily due to the implementation of GASB Statement No.75 Accounting and Financial Reporting for Post-Employment Benefits other than Pensions.
At the close of the current fiscal year, the Bibb County School District's governmental funds reported combined fund balances of $67,805,157, an increase of $5,862,147 in comparison with the prior year. Approximately 41.8% of this amount ($28,347,669) is available for spending at the government's discretion.
At the end of the current fiscal year, unrestricted fund balance for the General Fund was $32,070,701 or approximately 12.9% of total General Fund expenditures.
The Bibb County School District's total long-term outstanding debt increased $165,613,488. This increase is due to the increase in pension liability combined with the implementation of GASB Statement No.75 Accounting and Financial Reporting for Post-Employment Benefits other than Pensions.
OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The discussion and analysis provided here is intended to serve as an introduction to the Bibb County School District's basic financial statements. The Bibb County School District's basic financial statements consist of three components: 1) government-wide financial statements; 2) fund financial statements; and 3) the notes to financial statements. This report also includes supplementary information intended to furnish additional detail to support the basic financial statements themselves.
Government-wide Financial Statements. The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the Bibb County School District's finances in a manner similar to private-sector business.
The statement of net position presents financial information on all of the Bibb County School District's assets, liabilities, and deferred inflows/outflows of resources, with the difference reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the Bibb County School District is improving or deteriorating.
The statement of activities presents information showing how the Bibb County School District's net position changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned but unused compensated absences).

BIBB COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT Management's Discussion and Analysis
June 30, 2018
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the Bibb County School District that are principally supported by property taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental activities of the Bibb County School District include instruction, general administration, maintenance and operations, student transportation, and interest on long-term debt. The business-type activities of the Bibb County School District include school food services, stadiums, Hutchings Academy and the wellness center.
The government-wide financial statements can be found on pages 12 -14 of this report.
Fund Financial Statements. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The Bibb County School District, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with financerelated legal requirements. All of the funds of the Bibb County School District can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.
Governmental Funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in assessing a government's near-term financing requirements.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the government's near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.
The Bibb County School District maintains four individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the General Fund and the SPLOST Projects Fund, which are considered to be major funds. Data from the other two governmental funds are combined into a single aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these non-major governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements in the combining and individual fund statements and schedules section of this report.
The Bibb County School District adopts an annual appropriated budget for its General Fund. A budgetary comparison statement has been provided for the General Fund to demonstrate compliance with this budget.
The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 12 24 of this report.
Proprietary Funds. The Bibb County School District maintains two different types of proprietary funds. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. Enterprise funds may be used to account for any activity or service that charges a fee to external users to cover the cost of operations, including cost of depreciation and debt service. The District operates its food service, stadiums, Hutchings Academy and district-wide wellness center as enterprise funds. Internal Service funds account for goods and services that are provided to other funds in return for a fee to cover the cost of operations, including depreciation and debt service costs. The District's internal service funds include workers' compensation and unemployment compensation. Proprietary fund statements use the accrual basis of accounting similar to the district-wide statements.
The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 19 22 of this report.
Fiduciary Funds. The District is the trustee, or fiduciary, for assets that belong to others, such as the dependent care spending account fund, the medical spending account fund and school clubs and organizations within the principals' accounts. The District is responsible for ensuring that the assets reported in these funds are used only for intended purposes and by those to whom the assets belong. The District excludes these activities from the district-wide financial statements because it cannot use the assets to finance its operations.
The fiduciary fund financial statements can be found on pages 23 and 24 of this report.

GOVERNMENT-WIDE OVERALL FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
As noted earlier, net position over time, may serve as a useful indicator of a government's financial position. In the case of the Bibb County School District, assets and deferred outflows exceeded liabilities and deferred inflows by $152,708,024 at the close of the most recent fiscal year.

The Bibb County School District's overall net position decreased $183,917,799 or 54.6% from the prior fiscal year. This decrease is primarily due to the implementation of GASB Statement No.75.
By far, the largest portion of the Bibb County School District's net position ($453,769,875) reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g., land and land improvements, buildings, equipment, and construction in progress), less any related outstanding debt that was used to acquire those assets. The Bibb County School District uses these capital assets to provide a variety of services to its citizens. Accordingly, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the Bibb County School District's investment in capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources used to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.

BIBB COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT Management's Discussion and Analysis
June 30, 2018
As a result of the implementation of GASB Statement No.68 in FY2015 and GASB Statement No.75 in FY2018, the District's net position has been significantly negatively impacted by the inclusion of net pension liability of $191.4 million and Other Post-Employment Benefits liability of $195.1 million at June 30, 2018. An additional portion of the Bibb County School District's net position ($32.9 million) represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may be used.
Governmental Activities. The Bibb County School District Governmental Activities overall net position decreased from $318,432,852 to $152,706,110. This $165,726,742 or 52.0% decrease is primarily due to the implementation of GASB Statement No.75 Accounting and Financial Reporting for Post-Employment Benefits other than Pensions.

BIBB COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT Management's Discussion and Analysis
June 30, 2018
Business-type Activities. For the Bibb County School District's business-type activities, overall net position decreased from $18,192,971 to $1,914 in the current fiscal year. The decrease in net position for business-type activities (food services, stadiums, Hutchings Academy and wellness center operations) of $18,191,057 from the prior fiscal year and is primarily due to the implementation of GASB Statement No.75 Accounting and Financial Reporting for Post-Employment Benefits other than Pensions.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS of GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS
Governmental Funds. The focus of the Bibb County School District's governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the Bibb County School District's financing requirements. In particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government's net resources available for discretionary use as they represent the portion of fund balance which has not yet been limited to use for a particular purpose by either an external party, the Bibb County School District itself, or a group or individual that has been delegated authority to assign resources for use for particular purposes by the Bibb County School District's governing Board of Education. As noted earlier, the Bibb County School District uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. The District has two major governmental funds: The General Fund and the SPLOST Projects Fund. The General Fund is the District's primary operating fund and is used to account for all financial resources of the general government except those required to be accounted for in another fund. The SPLOST Projects Fund is used to account for the proceeds of a one percent Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax used to finance building renovations, land and building acquisitions, and the construction of new educational and administrative facilities.
On June 30, 2018, the Bibb County School District's governmental funds reported combined fund balances of $67,805,157, an increase of $5,862,147 in comparison with the prior year. Approximately 41.8% of this amount ($28,347,669) constitutes unassigned fund balance, which is available for spending at the government's discretion. The remainder of the fund balance is either non-spendable, restricted, committed, or assigned to indicate that it is 1) not in spendable form ($222,902), 2) restricted for particular purposes ($32,943,977), 3) committed for particular purposes ($2,567,577), or 4) assigned for particular purposes ($3,732,032).
General Fund. The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the Bibb County School District. At the end of the current fiscal year, unassigned fund balance of the General Fund was $28,347,669 while total fund balance decreased to $32,293,603. As a measure of the General Fund's liquidity, it may be useful to compare both unassigned fund balance and total fund balance to total General Fund expenditures. Unassigned fund balance represents approximately 11.4% of total General Fund expenditures while total fund balance represents approximately 13.0% of that same amount.
The net change in the General Fund's total fund balance was a decrease of $21,736 from the prior fiscal year. Total operating revenues exceeded expenditures by $228,264. Transfers to other funds totaled $250,000; primarily used for stadium expenditures.
SPLOST (Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax) Projects Fund. As of June 30, 2018, the SPLOST Projects Fund, a major fund, had an ending fund balance of $32,943,977, an increase of $5,415,133 from the prior year. The increase in fund balance was due to SPLOST receipts exceeding capital project expenditures.
Proprietary Funds. The Bibb County School District's proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial statements, but in more detail. The unrestricted net position of School Food Service at the end of the year was a negative ($8,013,719) and net investment of capital assets was $8,268,124 for a total net position of $254,405, a decrease of $18,150,944 from the prior year. The decrease is primarily due to the implementation of GASB No.75 Accounting and Financial Reporting for Post-Employment Benefits other than Pensions.

BIBB COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT Management's Discussion and Analysis

GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS
Original budget compared to final budget. Historically each year the District has to amend the General Fund original estimated revenues or original budgeted appropriations as well as the original budgeted expenditures as federal grant notifications are received after the completion of the original budget.
Final budget compared to actual results. The most significant differences between estimated revenues and actual revenues were as follows:
Revenue Source
Local sources State sources Federal sources
Estimated Revenues
$ 84,216,000 130,652,742 37,222,233
Actual Revenues
$ 87,779,137 133,181,720 27,076,728
$ Difference
$ 3,563,137 2,528,978
(10,145,505)
% Difference
4.1% 1.9% -37.5%
The increase in local revenue is due to property and other tax revenue increases. Tax collections including property, tag/title, real estate transfer, intangible, and pilot taxes were up over $3.6 million. The $3.6 million increase in local revenue is due to local property tax receipts and legal settlements. The district received $1.7 million more in property taxes than budgeted. The district also received over $1.5 million in e-rate funds from Cox Enterprises, Inc. related to FY2015 expenses. Finally, the district received over $750,000 in legal settlements from Progressive Consulting Technologies, Inc. and Comp Tech. The increase in state revenues is primarily due to an increase in State QBE Funds combined with increases in other state grants. The shortfall in the above federal revenue sources were caused primarily by federal grants. Federal grants are budgeted per the award amount plus any amount which is available for carryover from the previous year. Various federal grants also are fifteen month grants which means they run longer than the twelve month fiscal year. These grants are budgeted at the full award because there is no way to make an estimate of any monies which may carryover. Actual revenues are recorded for these grants as the revenue becomes available or as the expenditures are incurred. Therefore, the actual revenues extend over multiple fiscal years.
A review of actual expenditures compared to the appropriations in the final budget yields several significant variances.
Expenditure
Instruction General administration Maintenance & operations
Estimated Expenditures

$ Difference
$ (2,233,492) (2,443,530 (2,006,478)
% Difference
-1.1% -34.6% -10.9%
The instruction shortfall of $2.2 million in the above expenditure projections were caused primarily by federal and state grants, which extend over multiple fiscal years, being budgeted in their entirety in the first fiscal year that funds become awarded. Actual expenditures are recorded for these grants as the expenditures are incurred. Therefore, the actual expenditures extend over multiple fiscal years as well. The general administration results are primarily from staffing vacancies. The shortfall in the maintenance and operations expenditure projections were caused by efficiency of newer building construction and the implementation of energy conservation measures.

-10.2%
During the current fiscal year, the Bibb County School District's total debt decreased by $44,212,278 or 10.2% primarily as a result of the decrease in the net pension liability and net Other Post-Employment liability.
The Bibb County School District maintains an "Aa2" rating from Moody's Investors Service for general obligation debt. State statutes limit the amount of general obligation debt a governmental entity may issue up to 10% of the average full valuation. Currently the Bibb County District does not have any bonded debt. So based on the debt limitation, the amount available is $401,307,932.
Additional information on the Bibb County School District's long-term debt can be found in Note #9 on pages 43 45 of this report.
Economic Factors and Next Year's Budgets and Tax Rates. The following economic factors currently affect the Bibb County School District and were considered in developing the FY2019 fiscal year budget.
In June 2018, the Board adopted the FY2019 General Fund operating budget which includes $214.3 million in operating revenues and transfers in and $218.0 million in operating expenditures and transfers out.
On the expenditure side, continued increases are expected in health insurance premiums, pension, and other employee benefit costs. For FY2019, the Teacher Retirement System (TRS) increased its employer contribution from 16.81% to 20.9%, representing an overall 24.3% increase in pension costs.
For FY2019, the Board of Education adopted a 0.5 mill tax rate decrease from 19.814 to 19.314 mills to provide some relief to local taxpayers. It is anticipated that this tax rate decrease will yield $2 million less in property tax revenue.
For the first time since FY2003, the Governor of Georgia and the Georgia State Legislature eliminated all austerity reduction for FY2019, thus fully funding the state's QBE funding formula.
As the District anticipates the opening of more charter schools and decreased student enrollment, plans are underway to consolidate two elementary schools which will reduce the total number from 22 to 21.

Capital assets used in governmental activities are not financial resources and, therefore, are not reported in the funds.
Other long-term assets are not available to pay for current period expenditures and, therefore, are deferred in the funds.
Long-term liabilities are not due and payable in the current period and, therefore, are not reported in the funds.
Internal service funds are used by management to charge the costs of various benefits and services to individual funds. The assets and liabilities of the internal service funds are included in governmental activities in the statement of net position.

RECONCILIATION OF THE STATEMENT OF REVENUES, EXPENDITURES AND CHANGES IN FUND BALANCES OF GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS TO THE STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2018
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities are different because:
Net change in fund balances - total governmental funds.
$
Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the statement of activities, the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense. This is the amount by which capital outlays exceeded depreciation in the current period.
The net effect of the disposal of capital assets is to decrease net position.
Revenues in the statement of activities that do not provide current financial resources are not reported as revenues in the funds.
The issuance of long-term debt provides current financial resources to governmental funds, while the repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental funds. Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net position. Also, governmental funds report the effect of premiums and discounts when debt is first issued, whereas these amounts are deferred and amortized in the statement of activities. This amount is the net effect of these differences in the treatment of long-term debt and related items.
Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in governmental funds.
Internal service funds are used by management to charge costs of various services and benefits to individual funds. The net revenue (expense) of certain activities of internal service funds is reported with governmental activities.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Reporting Entity
The Bibb County School District (the "District") was incorporated on August 23, 1872, and provides for a system of education for the children in the City of Macon, Georgia ("Macon") and Bibb County, Georgia ("Bibb County") as authorized by its charter. The District operates under a Board/Superintendent form of government. The eight-member Board of Education (the "Board") is elected by the public and the Board appoints the superintendent. During the year ended June 30, 2005, the citizens of Bibb County voted to give the Board the power to determine the millage rate at which school taxes are levied and to incur bonded indebtedness with voters' approval. In previous years, the District was reported as a component unit of Bibb County. However, beginning with the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, the District is reported as its own primary government.
As required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the financial statements of the reporting entity include those of the Bibb County School District (the "primary government") and its component unit. The component unit discussed below is included in the District's reporting entity because of the significance of their operational or financial relationship with the District. Management has determined exclusion of the entity from the financial statements of the District would be considered misleading. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, as set forth in Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 61, The Financial Reporting Entity: Omnibus an amendment of GASB Statements No. 14 and No. 34, the financial statements of the component unit are discretely presented in the governmentwide financial statements.
Discretely Presented Component Unit
The Academy for Classical Education (the "Academy") is responsible for the public education of all students attending its school. The Academy was created through a contract between the Bibb County School District and the Academy whereby all State funding associated with the students attending the Academy and certain specified local funds are turned over to the Academy to cover the cost of its operations. The fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 was the first year of operations for the Academy. The Academy is located in Bibb County, Georgia providing education for almost 1,394 students in grades kindergarten through tenth grade. In future years, one grade will be added each year until the school serves kindergarten through twelfth grade. Complete financial statements for the Academy may be obtained at the entity's administrative offices:

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
B. Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement of activities) report information on all of the non-fiduciary activities of the primary government and its component unit. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these statements. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees and charges for support. Likewise, the primary government is reported separately from the legally separate component unit for which the primary government is financially accountable.
The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment is offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. Program revenues include: 1) charges to those who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment, and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds, even though the latter are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. Major individual governmental funds and major individual enterprise funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Basis of Presentation
The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary fund and the fiduciary fund financial statements. Agency funds have no measurement focus; however, they use the accrual basis of accounting to recognize receivables and payables. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of the related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period. For this purpose, the District considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due.
Property taxes, intergovernmental grants, and investment income associated with the current fiscal period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when cash is received by the District.
Revenue from grants and donations is recognized in the year in which all eligibility requirements have been satisfied. Eligibility requirements include timing requirements, which specify the year when the resources are required to be used or the year when use is first permitted; matching requirements, in which the District must provide local resources to be used for a specified purpose; and expenditure requirements, in which the resources are provided to the District on a reimbursement basis.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Basis of Presentation (Continued)
The State of Georgia reimburses the District for teachers' salaries and operating costs through the Quality Basic Education (QBE) Formula Earnings program. State of Georgia law defines the formula driven grant that determines the cost of an academic school year and the State of Georgia's share in this cost. Generally, teachers are contracted for the school year (July 1 June 30) and paid over a 12-month contract period, generally September 1 through August 31. In accordance with the requirements of the enabling legislation of the QBE program, the State of Georgia reimburses the District over the same 12-month period in which teachers are paid, funding the academic school year expenditures. At June 30, the amount of teachers' salaries incurred but not paid until July and August of the subsequent year are accrued, as the State of Georgia has only postponed the final payment of their share of the cost until the subsequent appropriations for cash management purposes. By June 30 of each year, the State of Georgia has a signed appropriation that includes this final amount, which represents the State of Georgia's intent to fund this final payment. Based on guidance in Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 33, paragraph 74, the State of Georgia recognizes its QBE liability for the July and August salaries at June 30, and the District recognizes the same QBE as a receivable and revenue, consistent with symmetrical recognition.
The District reports the following major governmental funds:
The General Fund is the District's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the general government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
The SPLOST Projects Fund accounts for the proceeds of a 1% Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax. Funds are used for: building renovations; land and building acquisitions; and construction of new educational and administrative facilities.
The District reports the following major proprietary fund:
The School Food Service Fund accounts for the monies and commodities received from the federal and state governments and the School Food Service's cafeteria sales for the purpose of maintaining the District's breakfast, lunch, and snack programs.

Additionally, the District reports the following fund types:
The Capital Projects Funds account for the acquisition of capital assets and construction or improvement of major capital projects such as construction of new schools.
The Enterprise Funds account for the operations of the stadiums, Wellness Center, and Hutchings College and Career Academy.
The Internal Service Funds account for workers' compensation and unemployment compensation services that are provided to other departments or funds of the District on a cost-reimbursement basis.
The Private-purpose Trust Fund accounts for resources devoted to the presentation of an award to a student and teacher each year at Appling Middle School. All resources of the fund, including any earnings on invested resources, may be used to support this purpose. There is no requirement that any portion of the resources be preserved as capital.
The Agency Funds are used to account for school activity funds related to school-wide fundraising activities and to account for flex medical and dependent care for the employees of the District.
As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements. Exceptions to this general rule are charges between the District's school food service program and the general fund. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs reported for the various functions concerned.
Amounts reported as program revenues include: 1) charges for services provided, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and contributions. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program revenues. Likewise, general revenues include all taxes.

C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Basis of Presentation (Continued)
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non-operating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund's principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the enterprise funds and of the District's internal service funds are charges for goods and services provided. Operating expenses of the enterprise funds and internal service funds include the cost of these goods and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues and expenses.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the District's policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed.
D. Cash and Investments
The District's cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash on hand, demand deposits, and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition.
State statutes authorize the District to invest in: obligations of the United States, the State of Georgia and other political subdivisions of the State of Georgia, and other states; prime bankers' acceptances; repurchase agreements; and the Georgia local government investment pool (Georgia Fund 1). Georgia Fund 1, created by O.C.G.A. 36-83-8, is a stable net asset value investment pool which follows Standard & Poor's criteria for AAAf rated money market funds and is regulated by the Georgia Office of the State Treasurer. The pool is not registered with the SEC as an investment company. The pool's primary objectives are safety of capital, investment income, liquidity and diversification while maintaining principal ($1 per share value). The asset value is calculated weekly to ensure stability. The pool distributes earnings (net of management fees) on a monthly basis and determines participants' shares sold and redeemed based on $1 per share. The pool also adjusts the value of its investments to fair market value as of year-end and the District's investment in the Georgia Fund 1 is reported at fair value.

E. Receivables and Payables
Activity between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding at the end of the fiscal year as well as all other outstanding balances between funds are reported as "due to/from other funds". Any residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and business-type activities are reported in the government-wide financial statements as "internal balances".
F. On-Behalf Payments
The State of Georgia makes certain health insurance and pension plan payments on behalf of the District for its employees. The District records these payments as both a revenue and an expenditure in the General Fund. The total of the on-behalf payments for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 was $499,864.
G. Inventories and Prepaid Items
Inventories of the School Food Service Fund are stated at cost using the first-in, first-out method. Donated food commodities are recorded at fair value. The District utilizes the consumption method to recognize inventory usage. Under the consumption method, inventories are recorded as expenses when used rather than when purchased.
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items in both government-wide and fund financial statements. The consumption method is used to account for prepaid items in the District's funds.
H. Capital Assets
Capital assets, which include property, plant, and equipment, are reported in the applicable governmental or business-type activities column in the government-wide financial statements. Capital assets are defined by the District as assets with an initial, individual cost of more than $5,000 and an estimated useful life in excess of two years. Such assets are recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets, donated works of art and similar items, and capital assets received in a service concession arrangement are recorded at acquisition value.
The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend assets' lives are not capitalized.

I. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources
GASB Statements No. 63, Financial Reporting of Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position and No. 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities, established accounting and financial reporting for deferred outflows/inflows of resources and the concept of net position as the residual of all other elements presented in a statement of net position.
In addition to assets, the statement of financial position/governmental funds balance sheet reports a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element represents a consumption of resources that applies to future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then. The Governmental Activities report several types of deferred outflows of resources related to the reporting of the net pension liability and net OPEB liability. See also Note 12 Retirement Plans and Note 13 Other Post-Employment Benefits.
In addition to liabilities, the statement of financial position/governmental funds balance sheet reports a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element represents an acquisition of resources that applies to future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. In addition to the items related to changes in the net pension liability and net OPEB liability as discussed below, the District has one type of item, which arises only under a modified accrual basis of accounting that qualifies for reporting in this category. Accordingly, the item, unavailable revenue, is reported only in the governmental funds balance sheet. The governmental funds report unavailable revenues from two sources: property taxes and grants. These amounts are deferred and will be recognized as an inflow of resources in the period in which the amounts become available. The Governmental Activities and Business-Type Activities report deferred inflows of resources related to the reporting of the net pension liability and net OPEB liability. These deferred inflows of resources will be amortized over five years.

J. Pensions
For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the Teacher Retirement System of Georgia (TRS), the Public School Employees Retirement System (PSERS), and the Employees' Retirement System (ERS), and additions to/deductions from each plan's fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by each plan. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.
K. Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB)
For purposes of measuring the net OPEB liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB, and OPEB expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the Georgia School Employees Post-employment Benefit Fund (School OPEB Fund) and additions to/deductions from the School OPEB Fund's fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the School OPEB Fund. For this purpose, benefit payments are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.
L. Long-Term Obligations
In the government-wide financial statements, and proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business-type activities, or proprietary fund type statement of net position. In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types report the face amount of debt issued as other financing sources.
M. Compensated Absences
Accumulated unpaid sick leave costs are not vested and are not accrued in any fund, but are recognized as expenditures or expenses, when paid. Accumulated unpaid vacation costs are accrued when incurred in the government-wide, proprietary, and fiduciary fund financial statements.

N. Fund Equity
Fund equity at the governmental fund financial reporting level is classified as "fund balance". Fund equity for all other reporting is classified as "net position".
Fund Balance Generally, fund balance represents the difference between the assets and liabilities under the current financial resources measurement focus of accounting. In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report fund balance classifications that comprise a hierarchy based primarily on the extent to which the District is bound to honor constraints on the specific purposes for which amounts in those funds can be spent. Fund balances are classified as follows:
Nonspendable Fund balances are reported as nonspendable when amounts cannot be spent because they are either (a) not in spendable form (i.e., items that are not expected to be converted to cash, or (b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.
Restricted Fund balances are reported as restricted when there are limitations imposed on their use either through enabling legislation or through external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors or laws or regulations of other governments.
Committed Fund balances are reported as committed when they can be used only for specific purposes pursuant to constraints imposed by formal action of the Board of Education through the adoption of a resolution. Likewise, fund balances that have been committed cannot be used for any other purposes unless the Board of Education removes the commitment of these funds through formal action of the adoption of a resolution. For a fund balance to show as committed for a fiscal year, the Board must adopt the resolution prior to June 30 even though the dollar amount of the commitment may be determined at a date subsequent to June 30.
Assigned Fund balances are reported as assigned when amounts are constrained by the District's intent to be used for the specific purposes, but are neither restricted nor committed. Through resolution, the Board of Education has authorized the Chief Financial Officer or Accounting Director to assign fund balances.
Unassigned Fund balances are reported as unassigned as the residual amount when the balances do not meet any of the above criterion. The School District reports positive unassigned fund balance only in the General Fund. Negative unassigned fund balance may be reported in all funds.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
N. Fund Equity (Continued)
Flow Assumptions When both restricted and unrestricted amounts of fund balances are available for use of expenditures incurred, it is the District's policy to use restricted amounts first and then unrestricted amounts as they are needed. For unrestricted amounts of fund balance, it is the District's policy to use fund balance in the following order:
Committed Assigned Unassigned
Net Position Net position represents the difference between assets and liabilities in reporting which utilizes the economic resources measurement focus. Net investment in capital assets consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, reduced by the outstanding balances of any borrowing used (i.e., the amount that the District has spent) for the acquisition, construction or improvement of those assets. Net position is reported as restricted using the same definition as used for restricted fund balance as described in the section above. All other net position is reported as unrestricted.
O. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

LEGAL COMPLIANCE BUDGETS
Budgetary Data. The District adopts an annual budget on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for the General Fund. The SPLOST Projects Fund adopts a project length budget. Proprietary fund budgets are prepared and utilized as a management tool to assess the operations of the enterprise and internal service funds. All annual appropriations lapse at fiscal year-end.
The budget is a complete financial plan for the District's fiscal year, usually the school year, and is based upon careful estimates of expenditures and probable incomes. The District's budget consists of the educational plan, expenditures for the educational plan and sources and amount of revenue. Prior to the first Monday in June, the administration of the District prepares and submits a proposed budget to the Board for approval.
After the budget has been tentatively approved by the Board, the budget must be advertised, in form and manner to be prescribed by the Board, at least one time in a newspaper of general circulation in Bibb County. Subsequent to this procedure, the Board shall revise the budget as necessary and adopt a final school budget.
The approved budget shall be certified and forwarded to the Georgia Department of Education for final approval. The budget is amended during the first six months and a mid-year review budget is prepared and approved by the Board. The budget is formally adopted at the program level and the legal level of the District's budgetary controls is the program level. Any amendments made after midyear review may be approved by the District's management.

DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS
Credit Risk. As of June 30, 2018, the District's investments were all rated AAAf by Standard & Poor's.
As of June 30, 2018, the District had the following investments:
Investment Georgia Fund I, AAAf
Maturities 10-day weighted average

75,703,979

75,703,979
Interest Rate Risk. As a means of limiting its exposure to fair value losses arising from rising interest rates, the District's investment policy limits all operating investments to instruments that mature within one year. All non-operating investments are best matched with their cash flow needs, with investment life of no more than five years.
Fair Value Measurements. The District categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable inputs; and Level 3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs.
The Georgia Fund 1 is an investment pool which does not meet the criteria of GASB Statement No. 79 and is thus valued at fair value in accordance with GASB Statement No. 31. As a result, the District does not disclose investment in the Georgia Fund 1 within the fair value hierarchy.
Custodial Credit Risk Deposits. Custodial risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, a government will not be able to recover deposits or will not be able to recover collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. State statutes require all deposits and investments (other than federal and state government instruments) to be collateralized by depository insurance, obligations of the U.S. government, or bonds of public authorities, counties, or municipalities. As of June 30, 2018, the District's bank balance of $17,441,086 was fully collateralized in compliance with state requirements.
Custodial Credit Risk Investments. For investments, this is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the depository financial institution, the government will not be able to recover the value of its investments or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. As of June 30, 2018, the District was not exposed to custodial credit risk for investments.

PROPERTY TAXES
Bibb County bills and collects property taxes for the District. Property taxes are levied (assessed) on all taxable real, public utility and personal property (including vehicles) located within the County as of January 1st of each year.
Assessed values for property tax purposes are determined by the Bibb County Board of Tax Assessors for all property except public utilities and motor vehicles. Assessed value is set at 40% of market value. The State of Georgia establishes values for public utilities and motor vehicles. Real property taxes for 2017 were levied on August 18, 2017, and are due in two installments - the first payment was due October 16, 2017, and the final payment was due by November 15, 2017. Bibb County may place liens on property once the related tax payments become delinquent. The property tax receivable allowance is equal to 20% of outstanding property taxes at June 30, 2018.
Vehicle personal property taxes are due upon each respective payor's date of birth on an annual basis. Beginning in April 2013, a title ad valorem tax is assessed upon sale of a vehicle, which replaces the personal property tax due annually on the payor's date of birth.

Teachers Retirement System Plan Description
All teachers of the District as defined in 47-3-60 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated (O.C.G.A.) and certain other support personnel as defined by 47-3-63 are provided a pension through the Teachers Retirement System of Georgia ("TRS"). TRS, a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan, is administered by the TRS Board of Trustees ("TRS Board"). Title 47 of the O.C.G.A. assigns the authority to establish and amend the benefit provisions to the State Legislature. TRS issues a publicly available financial report that can be obtained at http://www.trsga.com/publications.
Benefits Provided
TRS provides service retirement, disability retirement, and death benefits. Normal retirement benefits are determined as 2% of the average of the employee's two highest paid consecutive years of service, multiplied by the number of years of creditable service up to 40 years. An employee is eligible for normal service retirement after 30 years of creditable service, regardless of age, or after 10 years of service and attainment of age 60. Ten years of service is required for disability and death benefits eligibility. Disability benefits are based on the employee's creditable service and compensation up to the time of disability. Death benefits equal the amount that would be payable to the employee's beneficiary had the employee retired on the date of death. Death benefits are based on the employee's creditable service and compensation up to the date of death.
Contributions
Per Title 47 of the O.C.G.A., contribution requirements of active employees and participating employers, as actuarially determined, are established and may be amended by the TRS Board. Pursuant to O.C.G.A. 47-3-63, the employer contributions for certain full-time public school support personnel are funded on behalf of the employer by the State of Georgia. Contributions are expected to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. Employees were required to contribute 6.00% of their annual pay during fiscal year 2018. The school district's contractually required contribution rate for the year ended June 30, 2018 was 16.81% of annual school district payroll. District contributions to TRS were $20,858,843 for the year ended June 30, 2018.

Teachers Retirement System (Continued) Actuarial Assumptions
The total pension liability as of June 30, 2017, was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2016, using the following actuarial assumptions applied to all periods included in the measurement:
Inflation Salary increases
Investment rate of return
2.75% 3.75% 9.00%, average,
including inflation 7.50%, net of pension plan investment expense, including
inflation
Post-retirement mortality rates were based on the RP-2000 White Collar Mortality Table with future mortality improvement projected to 2025 with the Society of Actuaries' projection scale BB (set forward one year for males) for service retirements and dependent beneficiaries. The RP-2000 Disabled Mortality Table with future mortality improvement projected to 2025 with the Society of Actuaries' projection scale BB (set forward two years for males and four years for females) was used for death after disability retirement. Rates of mortality in active service were based on the RP-2000 Employee Mortality Table projected to 2025 with projection scale BB.
The actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2016 valuation were based on the results of an actuarial experience study for the period July 1, 2009 June 30, 2014.
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a lognormal distribution analysis in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected nominal returns, net of pension plan investment expense and the assumed rate of inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These ranges 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.

Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.50%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that plan member contributions will be made at the current contribution rate and that employer and State of Georgia contributions will be made at rates equal to the difference between actuarially determined contribution rates and the member rate. Based on those assumptions, the pension plan's fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of 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.

Public School Employees Retirement System (PSERS)
Plan Description
PSERS is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan established by the Georgia General Assembly in 1969 for the purpose of providing retirement allowances for public school employees who are not eligible for membership in the Teachers Retirement System of Georgia. The ERS Board of Trustees, plus two additional trustees, administers PSERS. Title 47 of the O.C.G.A. assigns the authority to establish and amend the benefit provisions to the State Legislature. PSERS issues a publicly available financial report that can be obtained at www.ers.ga.gov/formspubs/formspubs.
Benefits Provided
A member may retire and elect to receive normal monthly retirement benefits after completion of 10 years of creditable service and attainment of age 65. A member may choose to receive reduced benefits after age 60 and upon completion of 10 years of service.
Upon retirement, the member will receive a monthly benefit of $14.75, multiplied by the number of years of creditable service. Death and disability benefits are also available through PSERS. Additionally, PSERS may make periodic cost-of-living adjustments to the monthly benefits. Upon termination of employment, member contributions with accumulated interest are refundable upon request by the member. However, if an otherwise vested member terminates and withdraws his/her member contribution, the member forfeits all rights to retirement benefits.
Contributions
The general assembly makes an annual appropriation to cover the employer contribution to PSERS on behalf of local school employees (bus drivers, cafeteria workers, and maintenance staff). The annual employer contribution required by statute is actuarially determined and paid directly to PSERS by the State Treasurer in accordance with O.C.G.A. 47-4-29(a) and 60(b). Contributions are expected to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability.
Individuals who became members prior to July 1, 2012 contribute $4 per month for nine months each fiscal year. Individuals who became members on or after July 1, 2012 contribute $10 per month for nine months each fiscal year. The State of Georgia, although not the employer of PSERS members, is required by statute to make employer contributions actuarially determined and approved and certified by the PSERS Board of Trustees.

The net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2017. The total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was based on an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2016. An expected total pension liability as of June 30, 2017, was determined using standard roll-forward techniques. The State's proportion of the net pension liability associated with the District was based on actuarially determined contributions paid by the State during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017.
For the year ended June 30, 2018, the District recognized pension expense of $525,989 and revenue of $525,989 for support provided by the State of Georgia.

Net pension plan investment expense, including inflation
Post-retirement mortality rates were based on the RP-2000 Blue-Collar Mortality Table projected to 2025 with projection scale BB (set forward three years for males and two years for females) for the period after service retirements and for dependent beneficiaries. The RP-2000 Disabled Mortality projected to 2025 with projection scale BB (set forward five years for both males and females) was used for death after disability retirement. There is a margin for future mortality improvement in the tables used by the System. Based on the results of the most recent experience study adopted by the Board on December 17, 2015, the numbers of expected future deaths are 9-11% less than the actual number of deaths that occurred during the study period for healthy retirees and 9-11% less than expected under the selected table for disabled retirees. Rates of mortality in active service were based on the RP-2000 Employee Mortality Table projected to 2025 with projection scale BB.

Employees Retirement System (ERS)
Plan Description
ERS is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan established by the Georgia General Assembly during the 1949 Legislative Session for the purpose of providing retirement allowances for employees of the State of Georgia and its political subdivisions. ERS is directed by a Board of Trustees. Title 47 of the O.C.G.A. assigns the authority to establish and amend the benefit provisions to the State Legislature. ERS issues a publicly available financial report that can be obtained at www.ers.ga.gov/formspubs/formspubs.
Benefits Provided
The ERS Plan supports three benefit tiers: Old Plan, New Plan, and Georgia State Employees' Pension and Savings Plan ("GSEPS"). Employees under the Old Plan started membership prior to July 1, 1982, and are subject to plan provisions in effect prior to July 1, 1982. Members hired on or after July 1, 1982, but prior to January 1, 2009, are New Plan members subject to modified plan provisions. Effective January 1, 2009, new state employees and rehired state employees who did not retain membership rights under the Old or New Plans are members of GSEPS. ERS members hired prior to January 1, 2009, also have the option to irrevocably change their membership to GSEPS.
Under the Old Plan, the New Plan, and GSEPS, a member may retire and receive normal retirement benefits after completion of 10 years of creditable service and attainment of age 60 or 30 years of creditable service regardless of age. Additionally, there are some provisions allowing for early retirement after 25 years of creditable service for members under age 60.
Retirement benefits paid to members are based upon the monthly average of the member's highest 24 consecutive calendar months, multiplied by the number of years of creditable service, multiplied by the applicable benefit factor. Annually, post-retirement cost-of-living adjustments may also be made to members' benefits, provided the members were hired prior to July 1, 2009. The normal retirement pension is payable monthly for life; however, options are available for distribution of the member's monthly pension, at reduced rates, to a designated beneficiary upon the member's death. Death and disability benefits are also available through ERS.
Contributions
Member contributions under the old plan are 4% of annual compensation, up to $4,200, plus 6% of annual compensation in excess of $4,200. Under the Old Plan, the state pays member contributions in excess of 1.25% of annual compensation. Under the Old Plan, these state contributions are included in the members' accounts for refund purposes and are used in the computation of the members' earnable compensation for the purpose of computing retirement benefits.

Post-retirement mortality rates were based on the RP-2000 Combined Mortality Table with future mortality improvement projected to 2025 with the Society of Actuaries' projection scale BB and set forward two years for both males and females for service retirements and dependent beneficiaries. The RP-2000 Disabled Mortality Table with future mortality improvement projected to 2025 with Society of Actuaries' projection scale BB and set back seven years for males and set forward three years for females was used for death after disability retirement. There is a margin for future mortality improvement in the tables used by the System. Based on the results of the most recent experience study adopted by the Board on December 17, 2015, the numbers of expected future deaths are 9-12% less than the actual number of deaths that occurred during the study period for service retirements and beneficiaries and for disability retirements. Rates of mortality in active service were based on the RP-2000 Employee Mortality Table projected to 2025 with projection scale BB.

Actuarial Assumptions (Continued)
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a lognormal distribution analysis in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected nominal returns, net of pension plan investment expense and the assumed rate of inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These ranges 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 are summarized in the following table:

* Rates shown are net of the 2.75% assumed rate of inflation.
Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.50%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that plan member contributions will be made at the current contribution rate and that employer and State of Georgia contributions will be made at rates equal to the difference between actuarially determined contribution rates and the member rate. Based on those assumptions, the pension plan's fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of 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.

Plan Description
The District participates in the State of Georgia School Employees Post-employment Benefit Fund (the "School OPEB Fund") which is an other post-employment benefit ("OPEB") plan administered by the State of Georgia Department of Community Health ("DCH"). Certified teachers and non-certified employees of the Board as defined in 20-2-875 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated (O.C.G.A.) are provided OPEB through the School OPEB Fund - a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit post-employment healthcare plan, reported as an employee trust fund of the State of Georgia and administered by a Board of Community Health ("DCH Board"). Title 20 of the O.C.G.A. assigns the authority to establish and amend the benefit terms of the group health plan to the DCH Board. The School OPEB Fund is included in the State of Georgia Comprehensive Annual Financial Report which is publicly available and can be obtained at https://sao.georgia.gov/comprehensive-annual-financialreports.
Benefits
The School OPEB Fund provides healthcare benefits for retirees and their dependents due under the group health plan for public school teachers, including librarians, other certified employees of public schools, regional educational service agencies, and non-certified public school employees. Retiree medical eligibility is attained when an employee retires and is immediately eligible to draw a retirement annuity from Employees' Retirement System ("ERS"), Georgia Judicial Retirement System ("JRS"), Legislative Retirement System ("LRS"), Teachers Retirement System ("TRS") or Public School Employees Retirement System ("PSERS"). If elected, dependent coverage starts on the same day as retiree coverage. Medicare-eligible retirees are offered Standard and Premium Medicare Advantage plan options. Non-Medicare eligible retiree plan options include Health Reimbursement Arrangement ("HRA"), Health Maintenance Organization ("HMO") and a High Deductible Health Plan ("HDHP"). The School OPEB Fund also pays for administrative expenses of the fund. By law, no other use of the assets of the School OPEB Fund is permitted.
Contributions
As established by the DCH Board, the School OPEB Fund is substantially funded on a pay-as-yougo basis; that is, annual cost of providing benefits will be financed in the same year as claims occur. Contributions required and made to the School OPEB Fund from the Board were $7,293,321 for the year ended June 30, 2018. Active employees are not required to contribute to the School OPEB Fund.

OPEB Liabilities, OPEB Expense, and Deferred Outflows of Resources and Deferred Inflows of Resources Related to OPEB
Effective July 1, 2017, the District implemented the provisions of GASB Statement No. 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Post-employment Benefits Other Than Pensions, which significantly changed the District's accounting for OPEB amounts. The information disclosed in this note is presented in accordance with this new standard.
At June 30, 2018, the District reported a liability of $195,125,560 for its proportionate share of the net OPEB liability. The net OPEB liability was measured as of June 30, 2017. The total OPEB liability used to calculate the net OPEB liability was based on an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2016. An expected total OPEB liability as of June 30, 2017 was determined using standard roll-forward techniques. The District's proportion of the net OPEB liability was actuarially determined based on employer contributions to the School OPEB Fund during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017. At June 30, 2017, the District's proportion was 1.388798%, which was a decrease of (0.030790)% from its proportion measured as of June 30, 2016.
For the year ended June 30, 2018, the District recognized OPEB expense of $10,648,669. At June 30, 2018, the District reported deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB from the following sources:

Actuarial Assumptions (Continued)
Mortality rates were based on the RP-2000 Combined Mortality Table for Males or Females, as appropriate, with adjustments for mortality improvements based on Scale BB as follows:
For TRS Members: The RP-2000 White Collar Mortality Table projected to 2025 with projection scale BB (set forward one year for males) was used for death after service retirement and beneficiaries. The RP-2000 Disabled Mortality Table projected to 2025 with projection scale BB (set forward two years for males and four years for females) was used for death after disability retirement.
For PSERS Members: The RP-2000 Blue Collar Mortality Table projected to 2025 with projection scale BB (set forward three years for males and two years for females) was used for the period after service retirement and for beneficiaries of deceased members. The RP2000 Disabled Mortality Table projected to 2025 with projection scale BB (set forward five years for both males and females) was used for the period after disability retirement.
The actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2016 valuation were based on the results of an actuarial experience study for the pension system, which covered the five-year period ended June 30, 2014.
Projection of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as understood by the Board and plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and plan members to that point. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculation.
Additionally, there was a change that affected measurement of the total OPEB liability since the prior measurement date. The methodology used to determine employee and retiree participation in the School OPEB Fund is based on their current or last employer payroll location. Current and former employees of public school districts, libraries, regional educational service agencies, and community colleges are allocated to the School OPEB Fund irrespective of retirement system affiliation.

The long-term expected rate of return on OPEB plan investments was determined using a log-normal distribution analysis in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected nominal returns, net of investment expense and the assumed rate of inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These ranges 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 are summarized in the following table:
Asset Class Local Government Investment Pool
Target Allocation 100%
Long-Term Expected Real Rate of Return
3.88%
Discount rate
The discount rate has changed since the prior measurement date from 3.07% to 3.58%. In order to measure the total OPEB liability for the School OPEB Fund, a single equivalent interest rate of 3.58% was used as the discount rate. This is comprised mainly of the yield or index rate for 20 year taxexempt general obligation municipal bonds with an average rating of AA or higher (3.56% per the Bond Buyer Index). The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that the current sharing of costs between the employer and the member will continue and that contributions from the employer will be made at the current level as averaged over the last five years, adjusted for annual projected changes in headcount. Projected future benefit payments for all current plan members were projected through 2115. Based on these assumptions, the OPEB plan's fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make OPEB payments for inactive employees through year 2029. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on OPEB plan investments was applied to discount projected benefit payments until 2029. The discount rate of 3.58% was the single rate which, when applied to all projected benefit payments, resulted in the same present value of benefit payments when the above discussed calculations are combined. The calculated discount rate of 3.58% was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total OPEB liability.

The District offers its employees a tax deferred annuity plan created in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 403b. The plan, available to all District employees, permits them to defer a portion of their salary until future years. Participation in the plan is optional.
It is the opinion of the District's legal counsel that the District has no liability for losses under the plan, but does have the duty of due care that would be required of an ordinary prudent investor. The District believes these assets are not available to satisfy the claims of general creditors in the future.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 15. RISK MANAGEMENT
The District is exposed to various risks of loss for claims associated with torts; theft of, damage to and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; natural disaster; workers' compensation; unemployment compensation; and dental benefits.
The District is self-insured for workers' compensation and unemployment compensation. Premiums are paid into internal service funds by user funds and are available to pay claims, claim reserves, and administrative costs of the program. These interfund premiums are recognized as revenue in the internal service funds. The premiums are calculated on the basis of the percentage of that fund's payroll to total payroll. Liabilities are reported when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated including amounts of claims incurred, but not yet reported. An excess coverage insurance policy covers individual claims in excess of $500,000 loss per occurrence, up to the statutory limit. The District has not experienced any significant reduction in insurance coverage from the previous years nor has it paid any settlements in excess of insurance coverage in the past three years.
Changes in the balances of claims liabilities for the past two fiscal years for the funds for which the District is self-insured are as follows:

NOTE 16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The District is involved in a number of legal matters which either have or could result in litigation. Although the outcome of these lawsuits is not presently determinable, in the opinion of the District's legal counsel, the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the District. The District participates in numerous state and federal grant programs, which are governed by various rules and regulations of the grantor agencies. Costs charged to the respective grant programs are subject to audit and adjustment by the grantor agencies; therefore, to the extent that the District has not complied with the rules and regulations governing grants, refunds of any money received may be required and the collectability of any related receivable at June 30, 2018, may be impaired. In the opinion of the District, there are no significant contingent liabilities relating to compliance with the rules and regulations governing the respective grants; therefore, no provision has been recorded in the accompanying basic financial statements for such contingencies. The District is committed under outstanding construction contracts in the capital projects funds in the amount of $51,348,245. Construction contracts include new school construction and expansion and renovation of existing facilities.
NOTE 17. TAX ABATEMENTS
For the year ended June 30, 2018, the District's tax revenues were reduced by $6,459,179 under agreements entered into by the Macon-Bibb County Industrial Authority and the Macon-Bibb County Urban Development Authority. Under these agreements, taxes on both real and personal property are reduced based on investments made by the corporation to whom the incentives were offered. In order to qualify, certain eligibility requirements must be met and are based on the economic development goals of each project. Generally, a project will create employment opportunities, promote trade and commerce in the County, and increase the tax base. If a company fails to meet the criteria established in the agreement, recovery payments may apply.

1 Per Audited Financial Statements. 2 The increase in fund balance is primarily due to the issuance of the Series 2010 General Obligation Bonds ($30,000,000) on September 29, 2010.
3 The School District implemented GASB No. 54 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011. 4 The $6.2 million decrease in the General Fund balance was primarily due to the use of reserve funds to finance FY 2009 governmental operations.
5 Continued reductions is due to the use of these funds to finance the 2005 Capital Improvement Program expenditures.
6 The increase in fund balance is primarily due to the increase in furlough days taken by District employees coupled with a concerted effort to curtail expenditures.

1 Per Audited Financial Statements. 2 Decrease in Capital Outlay is due to the sunset of the 2005 Capital Improvement Program. 3 Includes transfers from the SPLOST Fund to the Debt Service Fund for payment on the 2005 Bonds. 4 The Extraordinary Item reflects an insurance reimbursement due to the District for tornado damage.
5 Decrease in Interest Revenue is due to the reduction in funds available for investment as we complete the 2005 Capital Improvement Program projects as well as the significant reduction in interest rates. 6 Decrease in state revenues and increase in federal revenues is due to the replacement of state revenues with federal revenues by the State of Georgia along with an increase in federal funding due to the receipt of ARRA funding.

Notes Overlapping governments are those that coincide, at least in part, with the geographic boundaries of the County. This schedule estimates the portion of the outstanding debt of those overlapping governments that is borne by the residents and businesses of Bibb County. This process recognizes that, when considering the government's ability to issue and repay long-term debt, the entire debt burden borne by the residents and businesses should be taken into account. However, this does not imply that every taxpayer is a resident and, therefore, responsible for repaying the debt of each overlapping government.

9 At the beginning of the 2009-2010 school year, students in grades 9-12 who were assigned to an alternative setting through the evidentiary hearing process were enrolled in the newly contracted Ombudsman program rather than being assigned to Neel Academy. Students in middle schools who were assigned to an alternative setting were still assigned to Neel Academy. At the beginning of the 2010-2011 school year, the Ombudsman program began serving middle and high school students and Neel Academy was closed. The Ombudsman program was discontinued at the end of the 2011-2012 year and the Bibb Academy of Excellence was established at the beginning of the 2012-2013 school year with three locations at Barden Elementary School, Bloomfield Middle School, and Hutchings Career Center. 10 The Renaissance Academy/Teen Parent Center closed at the end of the 2008-2009 school year. 11 Enrollment fluctuations caused by redistricting. 12 Footnote not used. 13 Footnote not used. 14 Additional classes added at magnet school. 15 The square footage for the adjoining Central Kitchen was inadvertently included in the square footage for the Hutchings Career Center.

The new software eliminated square footage for areas such as overhangs and provided a much more comprehensive and accurate accounting for the square footage at each facility and resulted in fluctuations in square footage from FY 2008 to FY 2009 in some facilities. 28 Capacity for each facility is determined each year using a formula approved by the Board which factors in the number of permanent classrooms available at a school, the maximum class size requirements of the GA DOE and a utilization factor which takes into account the different class sizes for extra curricular activities and times when the classrooms are not being utilized. 29 Newly constructed Howard High School opened for students in grades 9-11 for the 2008-2009 school year and began serving students in grades 9-12 in the 2009-2010 school year. Students were redistricted from Central High School and Westside High School. 30 The District purchased a web-based software facility maintenance program in July 2011.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S 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
To the Members of the Board of Education of the Bibb County School District
Macon, Georgia
We have audited, in accordance with the 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, the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the discretely presented component unit, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Bibb County School District as of and for the year ended June 30, 2018, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Bibb County School District's basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated January 28, 2019. This report does not include the results of our testing of internal control over financial reporting or compliance and other matters that have been reported in the separately issued financial statements and reports of the discretely presented component unit, the Academy for Classical Education. Our report includes a reference to a change in accounting principle resulting from the implementation of Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Post-Employment Benefits Other Than Pensions.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Bibb County School District'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 Bibb County School District's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Bibb County School District'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 entity's 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.
300 MULBERRY STREET, SUITE 300 POST OFFICE BOX 1877 MACON, GEORGIA 31202-1877 478-464-8000 FAX 478-464-8051 www.mjcpa.com MEMBERS OF THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
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. We did identify a certain deficiency in internal control, described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as item 2018-001 that we consider to be a material weakness.
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Bibb County School District's financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements, 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
The Bibb County School District's Response to Findings
The Bibb County School District's response to the finding identified in our audit is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. The Bibb County School District's response was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on it.
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 entity'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 entity's internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for each of the Bibb County School District'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; 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) standards and the Uniform Guidance 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 Bibb County School District'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 of the Bibb County School District's compliance.

Opinion on Each Major Federal Program
In our opinion, the Bibb County School District 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, 2018.
Other Matters
The results of our auditing procedures disclosed instances of noncompliance, which are required to be reported in accordance with the Uniform Guidance and which are described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as item 2018-002. Our opinion on each major federal program is not modified with respect to this matter.
Bibb County School District's response to the noncompliance finding identified in our audit is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. Bibb County School District's response was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of compliance and, accordingly, we express no opinion on the response.
Report on Internal Control Over Compliance
Management of the Bibb County School District 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 Bibb County School District's internal control over compliance with the types of requirements that could have a direct and material effect on each major federal program to determine the auditing procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing an opinion on compliance for each major federal program 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 Bibb County School District'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 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 a 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.
135
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 material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and, therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, we identified a certain deficiency in internal control over compliance, as described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as item 2018-002 that we consider to be a significant deficiency. Bibb County School District's response to the internal control over compliance finding identified in our audit is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. Bibb County School District's response was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of compliance and, accordingly, we express no opinion on the response. 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.

FINDINGS: FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AUDIT
2018-001.
Accounts Receivables and Revenues
Criteria: Generally accepted accounting principles require accounts receivable and related revenues be recognized in the accounting period in which they are measurable and available to finance expenditures of the current period.
Condition: At year-end, accounts receivable and related revenues were not properly recorded in the General Fund and the SPLOST Fund.
Context: During our testing of accounts receivable and revenues, we noted errors in reconciling a listing of grant receipts with the general ledger. Additionally, the District did not record a receivable for amounts related to fiscal year 2018 that were not received until July 2018.
Effect: Audit adjustments were required to reflect accounts receivable and related revenues due and payable to the District as of year-end. These adjustments were as follows:
General Fund net effect to decrease intergovernmental revenue and receivables in the amount of $234,218 in order to reconcile the listing of grant receipts to the general ledger; and the net effect to increase intergovernmental revenue and receivables in the amount of $30,426, in order to properly record state revenue.
SPLOST Fund net effect to increase intergovernmental receivable and related revenue in the amount of $2,745,394, in order to record the current year accrual of SPLOST revenue.
Recommendation: We recommend internal controls over accounts receivable and related revenues be strengthened to ensure amounts due and payable to the District as of year-end are properly reported.
Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: We concur. Additional controls will be implemented to ensure accounts receivable is properly reported..

FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS: MAJOR FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAMS AUDIT
2018-002.
Controls over Allowable Costs and Allowable Activities Child Nutrition Cluster, CFDA 10.553 and 10.555
Criteria: The OMB Compliance supplement requires that costs charged to federal programs are adequately documented and that payments are proper and are in line with the principles of 2 CFR part 200, subpart E.
Condition: Improper costs were charged to the Child Nutrition Cluster grant. In addition, the District did not adequately document a federal expenditure charged to the Child Nutrition Cluster grant.
Context: The District charged time loss expenditures to the Child Nutrition Cluster grant for non-Child Nutrition employees during the year ended June 30, 2018. In addition, one Child Nutrition Cluster invoice was paid prior to management's approval.
Effect: The District's controls over its allowable costs/costs princples were insufficient as it relates to payroll expenditures.
Recommendation: We recommend the District strengthen internal controls over its federal expenditures, to ensure the District only charges allowed costs to the grant and that costs are adequately documented.
Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: We concur with the finding. Additional controls will be implemented to ensure only allowable costs/activities are charged to federal programs and that federal expenditures are adequately documented.

Data must be submitted no later than the 15th calendar day of the month following the claim month. As established by the Uniform Guidance Reporting requirements, financial reports must be accurate and complete.

2018-001.
Accounts Receivables and Revenues
Name of the Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action Plan: Vicki Hulett, Executive Director of Accounting
Corrective Action Plan: All grants and accounts receivable items will be reviewed at year end for accuracy. All deposits received in the two months after year end will be scrutinized for necessary recording of receivables and revenues for the previous year end. Checklists of items which are normal receivables at year end will be used to help with this task.
Anticipated Completion Date: Fiscal year 2019
2018-002.
Compliance and Controls over Allowable Costs and Allowable Activities Child Nutrition Cluster, CFDA 10.553 and 10.555
Name of the Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action Plan: Timikel Sharpe, School Nutrition Director; Myra Abrams, School Nutrition Director HR
Corrective Action Plan: All School Nutrition payrolls will be submitted to the School Nutrition Department to Myra Abrams, Director HR and Timikel Sharpe, Executive Director for review after payroll has been completed. School Nutrition will submit timesheets to payroll with proper documentation for payroll processing according to the payroll calendar. When a final payroll proof is run, the Central Office School Nutrition Accountant will review the payroll by using the employee rosters supplied by School Nutrition. Payroll has to meet payroll calendar pay dates, therefore the next School Nutrition review takes place after payroll has been posted but before School Nutrition reimburses the General Fund for the School Nutrition payroll. The Accounting Department sends the posted payroll to School Nutrition. Myra Abrams will review and analyze the reports for accuracy. Any questions, errors, or discrepancies will be discussed with the School Nutrition Director, noted and reported to Janeseia Roberts in the Accounting Department for correction and verification prior to approval being granted. Approval will be given in writing by Mrs. Abrams. School Nutrition will be given at least 24 hours to review and submit a response. The Central Office School Nutrition Accountant will make corrections by journal entry and send a copy of the correction to the School Nutrition office. Payment to the General Fund will take place after any necessary corrections have been completed.
Anticipated Completion Date: Fiscal year 2019
