To the Members of the Fulton County Board of Education, The Citizens of Fulton County, Georgia and the Financial Community:
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) of the Fulton County Board of Education, Georgia (the School District) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, is submitted herewith. This report was prepared by the Financial Services Division and is intended to fulfill the requirements for audit prescribed by Georgia Statutes for local boards of education. Also included in this CAFR is the Uniform Guidance report which is issued to fulfill Single Audit Requirements of Federal and State governments. District management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of the information contained in this report, based on a comprehensive framework of internal control that it has established for this purpose. 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.
The Financial Services Division prepared this report in conformance with standards of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Government Finance Officers Association. Mauldin & Jenkins, LLC, have issued an unmodified ("clean") opinion on the Board's financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. The independent auditor's report is located at the front of the financial section of this report. Management's discussion and analysis (MD&A) document immediately follows the independent auditor's report and provides a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis of the basic financial statements. The MD&A complements this letter of transmittal and should be read in conjunction with it.
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report is presented in five sections: 1) Introductory, 2) Financial, 3) Statistical, 4) Special Reports, and 5) Single Audit. The Introductory section includes this transmittal letter, a list of principal officials, and an organizational chart. The Financial section includes the basic financial statements as well as the unmodified opinion of independent public accountants on the basic financial statements.
The Statistical section contains selected financial and demographic information, generally presented over a multi-year basis. Included with the Statistical section is a Special Report section. Within this Special Report section is the SPLOST expenditures, lottery expenditures, and QBE allotment and expenditures. The Single Audit section contains federal compliance information including schedules and auditor reports required for the District to comply with the Revised Single Audit Act of 1996 and 2 CFR200, the Uniform Guidance.

PROFILE OF THE BOARD
The School District's boundaries are coterminous with those of Fulton County, Georgia (the "County") (except the area within the corporate limits of the City of Atlanta, Georgia which constitutes the territory within the Atlanta Independent School System). The School District reports one blended component unit, the "Fulton County School Employees' Pension Fund".
The School District serves the entire County area excluding the territory within the Atlanta Independent School System. The School District is currently composed of 106 schools: 59 elementary schools (grades K-5), 19 middle schools (grades 6-8) and 18 high schools (grades 9- 12), 2 open campus high schools, and 10 start-up Charter Schools for a total enrollment of approximately 96,700. The School District is governed by an elected seven-member Board of Education, the official policy-making body of the School District and administered by an appointed Superintendent.
The School District is the fourth largest system in Georgia and the 32nd largest in the United States. The District is governed by a Board of Education consisting of seven members elected by the registered voters of the County from seven education districts within the County. A president and a vice-president are elected from the membership and serve as such for a term of two years and one year respectively.
Day-to-day administration of the School District is the responsibility of the Superintendent, who is appointed by the Board for terms of office which may not be less than one year or greater than three years. The School Superintendent acts as the Secretary of the Board of Education, ex officio.
As of June 30, 2019, there were more than 7,500 certificated personnel servicing an active enrollment of approximately 96,700 students in the various schools. Services provided by our personnel include preschool for three and four-year-old special needs students, regular and special education instructional program at the elementary (kindergarten through 5th grade), middle (6th through 8th grade), and secondary (9th through 12th grade) levels. Additional services in community school programs, on-line educational programs and numerous others, which exceed the legal requirements, are also offered in the school system.
All teachers in the School System hold bachelor's degrees, many have Masters degrees, and some have Specialist's and Doctoral degrees. Most have a continuing interest in professional and personal growth through formal study and staff development workshops.
The School District has been reaccredited by AdvanceEd, which is comprised of three U.S.-based regional accreditation agencies. The regional accreditation agency that conducts the School District's accreditation activities is the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Council on Accreditation (SACS CASI).
Fulton County has a land area of approximately 529 square miles. The terrain is rolling, and the elevation varies from 900 to 1,050 feet above sea level. The average temperature varies from 41 degrees in January to 79 degrees in July, with an average mean temperature of 61 degrees. Average annual rainfall is 50.77 inches.

LOCAL ECONOMY

The development of the fiscal year 2019 budget, which was approved on June 28, 2018, was a planned, orderly process which evaluated the prioritization of available funds for provision of educational services for Fulton County students. The central focus of the approved fiscal year 2019 budget is to provide competitive wages for teachers, manage increasing benefit costs, increase support to schools, provide support for the execution of the Districts strategic plan and support federal programs.

Overall, our General Fund revenues are up approximately 7.2% as our local economy remains strong with steady growth occurring. The District has two primary funding sources, Property Taxes and QBE (state aid) which support our General Fund operations.

Our first major General Fund revenue stream is property taxes which generates 62% of the General Fund revenue. Taxes increased by $67 million due to growth in the Tax Digest. In addition, our 2017 digest was frozen by the State due to certification issues which prevented full billing in 2017. During the fiscal year 2019, the issues were resolved, and the District received additional revenue.

Our second major General Fund revenue stream is State revenue through the "Quality Basic Education" Act which represents 35% of General Fund revenue. In fiscal year 2019, QBE state aid of approximately $372 million was down from fiscal year 2018 by approximately $3 million due to shifting enrollment trends and the increase in our tax digest which offsets QBE Earnings.

It is the goal of FCS to strategically use new revenue to support the School District's strategic plan, to provide compensation increases to employees to manage the expenditure growth associated with rising benefit costs. The revenue increases in fiscal year 2019 were used in part to provide a salary increase to employees and to manage rising benefit costs.

LONG TERM FINANCIAL PLANNING

The School District plans capital improvements as future capital needs arise due to increased student population and facility repair and maintenance needs. Specific capital expenditure plans are formalized in conjunction with enrollment forecasts, current facility assessments, and anticipated annual receipts of capital outlay funds from the State of Georgia Department of Education. The School District regularly monitors anticipated capital outlay needs.

The School District has adopted financial policies that provide us with an infrastructure for our future financial management decisions. The topics addressed in these policies include:



Operating budgets and equity reserve policies;



Capital improvement program policies;



Debt issuance and management policies (adopted in fiscal year 2010);



Revenue administration policies;



Accounting, auditing, and financial reporting policies; and



Deposit and investment policies.

STRATEGIC INITIATIVES
Our goal is to prepare all students to graduate ready to pursue and succeed on their chosen paths. At the beginning of the 2017-2018 school year, Fulton County Schools rolled out the new Strategic Plan 2022:
At Fulton County Schools, we are dedicated to our mission to educate every student to be a responsible, productive citizen. We are also committed to our vision that all students will learn to their full potential. Our strategic plan provides a focus for our district's work to support that mission and vision by identifying our top priorities for the next five years:
Student Achievement; Community Collaboration; People and Culture; and Fiscal Responsibility .
To support our plan, Fulton County Schools will ensure that all students learn to their fullest potential by developing and investing in a Strategic Support Model. The model will pair resources with flexibility and accountability to empower schools and communities so they can continuously improve outcomes for all children and prepare them to succeed on their chosen paths.
AWARDS
Financial Reporting
The District received a Certificate of Excellence in financial reporting for the fiscal year June 30, 2018 CAFR from Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) and the Association of School Business Officials International (ASBO). This was the 11th year that the School District has submitted and received these prestigious awards.
In order to receive these awards, a government must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized comprehensive annual financial report. This report must satisfy both generally accepted accounting principles and applicable legal requirements. These awards are valid for a period of one year only. We believe that our current CAFR continues to meet GFOA and ASBO requirements and we will be submitting our 2019 CAFR to determine its eligibility for these certificates.
Budget Presentation
The School District prepares an official budget document each year which is issued as a separate report. We have received the Meritorious Budget Award from ASBO every year since 2010. The criteria required by ASBO includes an introductory, organizational, financial and information section. We believe the most recent budget continues to conform to program requirements, and we have submitted it to ASBO to determine its eligibility for another award.
In 2019, we also received from GFOA the Award for Best Practices in School Budgeting. This award is presented annually to school districts who demonstrate a budget process aligned with GFOA's best practice recommendations. We won this award by using the GFOA's latest criteria which includes the alignment of resources towards student achievement focusing on collaboration, communication, and rigorous development, evaluation, and prioritization of strategies to achieve the School District's goals and objectives.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Superintendent and Members of the Fulton County Board of Education
Atlanta, Georgia
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Fulton County Board of Education (the "School System") as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the School System'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 policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Opinions
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Fulton County Board of Education as of June 30, 2019, and the respective changes in financial position and the budgetary comparison for the General Fund, for the fiscal year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management's Discussion and Analysis, the Schedule of Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability Teachers Retirement System of Georgia, the Schedule of Contributions Teachers Retirement System of Georgia, the Schedule of Changes in the School System's Net Pension Liability and Related Ratios, the Schedule of Investment Returns Fulton County School Employees' Pension Fund, and the Schedule of Contributions Fulton County School System's Retirement Plan, the Schedule of Proportionate Share of Net OPEB Liability School OPEB Fund, and the Schedule of Contributions School OPEB Fund, as listed in the table of contents, 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 Fulton County Board of Education's basic financial statements. The combining and individual fund statements and schedules, the schedule of expenditures of special purpose local option sales tax proceeds, as required by the Official Code of Georgia 48-8-121, and the 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, as well as the introductory, statistical, and special reports sections are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.
2

Other Matters (continued) Other Information (continued) The combining and individual fund statements and schedules, the schedule of expenditures of special purpose local option sales tax proceeds, and the schedule of expenditures of federal awards are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the combining and individual fund statements and schedules, the schedule of expenditures of special purpose local option sales tax proceeds, and the schedule of expenditures of federal awards are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole. The introductory, statistical, and special reports 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 December 23, 2019 on our consideration of the Fulton County Board of Education'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 is solely 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 the School System'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 Fulton County Board of Education's internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

At the end of the current fiscal year, the unassigned fund balance for the general fund was $19,286,967 or 1.86% of total general fund expenditures. The fiscal year 2019 unassigned fund balance shows a $8,347,414 decrease from the prior fiscal year amount.
The above financial highlights are explained in more detail in the Financial Analysis Section of this document.
Overview of the Financial Statements This Management Discussion and Analysis document introduces the School System's basic financial statements. The basic financial statements include: (1) government-wide financial statements, (2) fund financial statements, and (3) notes to the basic financial statements. The School System also includes in this report additional information to supplement the basic financial statements. Comparative data is presented when available.
Government-wide Financial Statements The School System's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report includes two government-wide financial statements. These statements provide both long-term and short-term information about the School System's overall financial status. Financial reporting at this level uses a perspective similar to that found in the private sector; with its basis in accrual accounting and elimination or reclassification of activities between funds.
The first of these government-wide statements is the Statement of Net Position. This is the governmentwide statement of position presenting information that includes all the School System's assets, deferred

outflows and inflows of resources, and liabilities, with the difference reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of the financial position of the School System. Evaluation of the overall health of the School System would extend to other nonfinancial factors such as diversification of the taxpayer base, in addition to the financial information provided in this report.
The second government-wide statement is the Statement of Activities, which reports how the School System's net position changed during the current fiscal year. All current fiscal year revenues and expenses are included, regardless of when cash is received or paid. An important purpose of the design of the statement of activities is to show the financial reliance of the School System's distinct activities or functions on revenues provided by the School System's taxpayers.
The government-wide financial statements report governmental activities of the School System that are principally supported by taxes and grants and include regular instruction, specialized instruction, and numerous supporting services such as school administration and the operation and maintenance of the schools.
The government-wide financial statements are presented on pages17 and 18 of this report.
Fund Financial Statements A fund is an accountability unit used to maintain control over resources segregated for specific activities or objectives. The School System uses funds to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related laws and regulations. Within the basic financial statements, fund financial statements focus on the School System's most significant funds rather than the School System as a whole. Major funds are separately reported while all others are combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for nonmajor funds is provided in the form of combining statements in a later section of this report.
The School System has two kinds of funds:
Governmental funds are reported in the fund financial statements and encompass the same functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, the focus is very different with fund statements providing a distinctive view of the School System's governmental funds. These statements report short-term fiscal accountability focusing on the use of spendable resources and balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Fund financial statements are useful in evaluating annual financing requirements of governmental programs and the commitment of current spendable resources.
Since the government-wide focus includes the long-term view, comparisons between these two perspectives may provide insight into the long-term impact of short-term financing decisions. Both the Governmental Fund Balance Sheet and the Governmental Fund Operating Statement provide a reconciliation to assist in understanding the differences between these two perspectives.
The basic governmental fund financial statements, including the general fund's budgetary statement are presented on pages 19-23 of this report.
Individual fund information for nonmajor governmental funds is found in combining and individual statements and schedules in a later section of this report.
The other fund type, fiduciary funds, is used to account for the School System's pension trust fund and its school activity accounts. These statements are presented on pages 24-25.

GOVERNMENTAL REVENUES
The School System's primary revenue sources are property taxes and state aid, primarily the Quality Basic Education aid (QBE). The School System is also reliant on property taxes to support educational operations and capital outlay. Taxes provided 62.3% of the School System's total governmental revenues as compared to 60.8% in fiscal year 2018.
State and federal aid recognized for operating purposes (excluding capital outlay) total 35.0% of total revenue as compared to 36.5% in fiscal year 2018.
In the State of Georgia, the general state funding, known as Quality Basic Education (QBE) funding is classified as program revenue. The QBE funding is distributed based upon enrollments and a certain amount of this funding must be expended in certain expense functions, as well as an amount on salaries and an amount on operations. In fiscal year 2019, the School System recognized QBE of approximately $372.4 million or approximately 27.6% of total revenues as compared to approximately $375.1 million or 29.6% in fiscal year 2018. The reason for this change is explained in the governmental activities financial analysis section presented later in this document.
In addition, the School System earned $7,421,200 in unrestricted investment earnings to support educational activities. Also, note that program revenues cover approximately 41.2% of governmental operating expenses. This means that the School System's taxpayers, through property taxes and sales taxes, fund almost 58.8% of the governmental activities revenues.
The School System recorded over $188 million in Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) during the current fiscal year. In May 2016, a new referendum was approved authorizing a 1% special purpose local option sales tax, which commenced July 1, 2017 and expires June 30, 2022. These taxes are used for acquiring school sites, constructing, and equipping new school facilities, and renovating existing facilities.
GOVERNMENTAL FUNCTIONAL EXPENSES
The following table presents the cost of each of the School System's programs, including the net costs (i.e., total cost less revenues generated by the activities). The net costs illustrate the financial burden that was placed on the School System's taxpayers by each of these functions.
The instruction function makes up 58.5% of total expenses or almost $705 million. The School System spends an additional $145.9 million on direct instructional support, including pupil services, improvement of instructional services and educational media services. The administration costs of operating our 106 schools are approximately $88 million. The operation and maintenance of the School System's buildings costs approximately $111 million.
The school nutrition program's gross expenses are over $44 million, and this program lost approximately $2.5 million after meal charges, state, and federal aid. Finally, operating approximately 788 buses costs the School System over $64.4 million.

Although the instruction function makes up 58.5% of total gross costs in fiscal year 2019, it is 52.2% of net costs. This reduction relates to the QBE funding reported as a program-operating grant and state aid capital grants for school construction.
Financial Analysis of the School System's Funds
Governmental Funds
As discussed, governmental funds are reported in the fund statements with a short-term, inflow and outflow of spendable resources focus. This information is useful in assessing resources available at the end of the fiscal year in comparison with upcoming financing requirements.
Governmental funds reported ending fund balances of $426,903,868. Of this fiscal year-end total, $203,550,495 is legally restricted, $177,524,841 is for capital outlay, $4,205,299 is for debt service, and $17,404,137 is for the school nutrition program, $3,947,587 is for the principal's fund, $468,631 is for other uses, $167,130,904 is committed primarily for safeguards set aside to protect the School System against economic recessions, and $4,730,815 fund balance is non-spendable
Finally, $32,204,687 is assigned which includes $12,708,419 assigned to cover the 2020 projected budget deficit and $19,470,668 assigned for encumbrance rollover. The School System has $19,286,967 in unassigned fund balance which is available for future educational purposes.

as of and for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2019
Major Governmental Funds
General Fund - The general fund is the School System's primary operating fund and the largest source of day-to-day service delivery. The general fund's fund balance increased by $13,292,008 or 6.38%, from the fiscal year 2018 amount.
Our first major General Fund revenue stream is property taxes which generates 62% of the General Fund revenue. Taxes increased by $70 million due to growth in the Tax Digest. In addition, our 2017 digest was frozen by the State due to certification issues which prevented full billing in 2017. During the fiscal year 2019, the issues were resolved, and the District received additional revenue.
Our second major General Fund revenue stream is State revenue through the "Quality Basic Education" Act which represents 35% of General Fund revenue. In fiscal year 2019, QBE state aid of approximately $372 million was down from fiscal year 2018 by approximately $3 million due to shifting enrollment trends and the increase in our tax digest which offsets QBE.
Federal revenues increased by approximately $699,781 from fiscal year 2018. Other 2019 revenues decreased by approximately $2.6 million. Overall, revenues increased approximately $71.9 million or 7.3% over our fiscal year 2018 revenues due to growth in the property tax digest, and an improving interest rate environment for investment earnings.
On the expenditure side, total general fund expenditures, increased $28.7 million or 2.8% in line with salary increases given to employees for fiscal year 2019 and rising benefit costs.
The instruction function decreased by approximately $22.5 million or 3.35%. This reduction was the result of several factors. In fiscal year 2018, there was a major textbook adoption which is not reflected in 2019. Due to increases in State Revenue, the Governor granted a "State Health Payment Holiday" and therefore reduced healthcare expenditures during June of 2019. In addition, school technology specialist were coded in the instruction function in 2018 and moved to central support function in 2019 leading to an increase in the support function of 42.39% or approximately $12.8 million.
The pupil services function experienced a significant increase of $29.1 million or 77.8% as a result of a change in state reporting standards which required the District to report occupational and other therapist roles in pupil serves which had been spread across a variety of other functions. The transportation function increased by 9.23% or $4.7 million for 85 new bus driver positions to accommodate route growth. The general administration function rose $2.1 million or 53.88% as a result of settlement of lawsuits which fluctuate from year to year. All other functions performed in line with 2018.
The general fund's ending unassigned fund balance is approximately $19.3 million representing the equivalent of 1.9% of annual expenditures. The unassigned fund balance was 2.7% of annual expenditures at June 30, 2018. The increase in the percentage is due to strong growth in our tax revenues allowing us to add to fund balance in 2019.
2017 SPLOST Capital Projects Fund On May 24, 2016, the voters approved a special purpose local option sales tax for a period of five years. The District is authorized to use $976.3 million for building construction and renovation and $48.5 million for debt service. During fiscal year 2019, the District expended $144.5 million on construction and technology and approximately $15.3 million in debt service. At year end, fund balance is $135.1 million which will be used for future projects and debt service.

Fulton County Board of Education, Georgia Management's Discussion and Analysis (Unaudited)
as of and for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2019
General Fund Budgetary Highlights The revenue budget was amended downward by approximately $5.8 million or 0.5% due to property tax collections coming in short due to projections for recovery of 2017 taxes due to the resolution of the digest freeze were not as robust as anticipated. The state revenue budget was amended upward by a total of $4.0 million or 1.1% to account for an increase in state aid due to shifting enrollment patterns above. The expenditure side of the original budget for the general fund was revised upward approximately $46.62 million or 4.4% increase resulting from the rollover of outstanding 2018 purchase orders in the amount of $19.1 million, the de-commitment of $8.0 million in fund balance, and subsequent increase in budget for a textbook adoption, a mid-year step and raise for teachers, an increase of $2.0 million related to risk management reserve and security grants awarded during the year. The total expenditures for direct instruction ended the year less than 5.0% under primarily due to teacher staffing at the lower end of the experience scale versus the mid-point budgeted combined with reduced healthcare expenditures in connection with the State Health Holiday. Improvement of Instructional Services function returned a positive budget variance of 9.2% due to teacher staffing at the lower end of the experience scale versus the mid-point budgeted combined with reduced healthcare expenditures in connection with the State Health Holiday. In addition professional services were not engaged as anticipated during the budget process. Pupil Services returned a positive budget variance of 8.3% due to a reduction in the cost of testing materials. The Transportation function was under budget by one percent. The Maintenance and Operation function returned a positive budget variance in the amount of approximately $19.6 million because of the reduced need for portables due to moderating enrollment, reduced equipment maintenance and contracted services cost and HVAC modification projects completed under budget and utility expense came in under forecast. Finally, the Central Support Function was approximately $5 million over budget due to technology expenditures reclassified during 2019 which were originally intended to be funded from Capital funds. Overall, the School System spent 94.67% of the final expenditure budget as compared to 96.48% in fiscal year 2018.

Fulton County Board of Education, Georgia Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019
The Fulton County Board of Education, Georgia (the "School System") was established under the laws of the State of Georgia and is governed by an elected seven-member board (the "Board"). Board members are elected by the public. The School System provides public education throughout Fulton County, Georgia, excluding the City of Atlanta, Georgia.
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The financial statements of the School System have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) as applied to governments. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard-setting body for governmental accounting and financial reporting.
The most significant of the School System's accounting policies are described below.
1-A. Reporting Entity
The reporting entity is comprised of the primary government, component units and other organizations that are included to ensure that the financial statements are not misleading. The primary government of the School System consists of all funds, departments, boards, and agencies that are not legally separate from the School System. More specifically, the Board has the authority to make decisions, the power to approve selection of management personnel, the ability to significantly influence operations, and the primary accountability for fiscal matters.
Component units are legally separate organizations for which the School System is financially accountable. The School System is financially accountable for an organization if the School System appoints a voting majority of the organization's governing board and (1) the School System is able to significantly influence the programs or services performed or provided by the organizations; or (2) the School System is legally entitled to or can otherwise access the organization's resources; the School System is legally obligated or has otherwise assumed the responsibility to finance the deficits of, or provide financial support to, the organization; or the School System is obligated for the debt of the organization. Component units also may include organizations that are fiscally dependent on the School System in that the School System approves the budget, levies their taxes or issues their debt and also has a financial benefit or burden relationship with the School System.
The School System reports one fiduciary component unit as follows:
Fulton County School Employees' Pension Fund (the "Pension Trust Fund") The pension trust fund is governed by a committee of the Board of Education, known as the "Pension Board." Although the pension trust fund is legally separate from the School System, the pension trust fund is reported as a part of the primary government because its primary purpose is to provide retirement benefits to the employees of the School System and because the pension trust fund is fiscally dependent on the School System. Separate financial statements of the pension trust fund can be obtained at 6201 Powers Ferry Road NW, Atlanta, Georgia 30339.
The School System is not considered a component unit of any other governmental reporting entity.
1-B. Basis of Presentation
The School System's basic financial statements consist of government-wide statements, including a statement of net position and a statement of activities and fund financial statements, which provide a more detailed level of financial information.
Government-wide Financial Statements - The government-wide financial statements include the statement of net position and the statement of activities. These statements report financial information for the School System as a whole. Fiduciary funds are not presented in the government-wide financial statements.
The statement of net position presents the financial position of the governmental activities of the School System.
The statement of activities presents a comparison between direct expenses and program revenues for each function of the School System's governmental activities. Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a function and therefore clearly identifiable to that particular function. The School System does not allocate indirect expenses to functions in the statement of activities.
27

Fulton County Board of Education, Georgia Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The statement of activities reports the expenses of a given function offset by program revenues directly connected with the functional program. A function is an assembly of similar activities and may include portions of a fund or summarize more than one fund to capture the expenses and program revenues associated with a distinct functional activity. Program revenues include: (1) charges for services which report tuition, fees and other charges to users of the School System's services; (2) operating grants and contributions which finance annual operating activities including restricted investment income; and (3) capital grants and contributions which fund the acquisition, construction, or rehabilitation of capital assets. These revenues are subject to externally imposed restrictions to these program uses. For identifying to which function program revenue pertains, the determining factor for charges for services is which function generates the revenue. For grants and contributions, the determining factor is to which function the revenues are restricted.
Other revenue sources not properly included with program revenues are reported as general revenues of the School System. The comparison of direct expenses with program revenues identifies the extent to which each governmental function is selffinancing or draws from the general revenues of the School System.
Fund Financial Statements - During the fiscal year, the School System segregates transactions related to certain School System functions or activities in separate funds in order to aid financial management and to demonstrate legal compliance. Fund financial statements are designed to present financial information of the School System at this more detailed level. Fund financial statements are provided for governmental and fiduciary funds.
Major individual governmental funds are reported in separate columns.
Fund Accounting - The School System uses funds to maintain its financial records during the fiscal year. A fund is a fiscal and accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts. The School System uses two categories of funds: governmental and fiduciary.
Governmental Funds - Government funds are those through which most governmental functions typically are financed. Governmental fund reporting focuses on the sources, uses, and balances of current financial resources. Expendable assets are assigned to the various governmental funds according to the purposes for which they may or must be used. Fund liabilities are assigned to the fund from which they will be liquidated. The School System reports the difference between governmental fund assets and liabilities and deferred inflows of resources as fund balance. The School System reports the following major governmental funds:
The General Fund The general fund accounts for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund. The general fund's fund balance is available to the School System for any purpose provided it is expended or transferred according to the general laws of the State of Georgia.
The 2017 SPLOST Capital Projects Fund This fund accounts for the special purpose local option sales tax as authorized in 2017 and is being used primarily for acquiring school sites, constructing and equipping new school facilities, and renovating existing facilities.
Fiduciary Funds - The School System reports the following fiduciary fund types:
Pension Trust Fund This fund accounts for pension benefits within a defined benefit pension plan, for School System employees not covered by the Teachers Retirement System of Georgia as well as some employees who were employed prior to July 1, 1988, who transferred to the Teachers Retirement System of Georgia, but retained certain benefit guarantees in the local plan.
Agency Funds These funds account for assets held by the School System as an agent for various school clubs or individuals.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
1-C. Measurement Focus
Government-wide Financial Statements - The government-wide financial statements are prepared using the economic resources measurement focus. All assets and all liabilities associated with the operation of the School System are included on the statement of net position. The statement of activities reports revenues and expenses.
Fund Financial Statements - All governmental funds are accounted for using a flow of current financial resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, only current assets and current liabilities, along with deferred inflow of resources, generally are included on the balance sheet. The statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances reports the sources (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and uses (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) of current financial resources. This approach differs from the manner in which the governmental activities of the governmentwide financial statements are prepared.
Governmental fund financial statements therefore include reconciliation with brief explanations to better identify the relationship between the government-wide statements and the governmental fund statements.
The pension trust fund type is accounted for on a flow of economic resources measurement focus on the fund financial reporting level. All assets and all liabilities associated with the operation of these funds are included on the statements of net position. The statements of changes in fund net position present increases (i.e., additions) and decreases (i.e., deductions) in net total assets. The agency funds are custodial in nature (assets equal liabilities) and do not involve the measurement of results of operations.
1-D. Basis of Accounting
Basis of accounting determines when transactions are recorded in the financial records and reported on the financial statements. Government-wide financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting. At the fund reporting level, the governmental funds use the modified accrual basis of accounting. Fiduciary funds are reported on the accrual basis at the fund reporting level. Differences in the accrual and the modified accrual basis of accounting arise in the recognition of revenue, the recording of unavailable revenue, and in the presentation of expenses versus expenditures.
Revenues - Exchange Transactions - Revenue resulting from exchange transactions, in which each party gives and receives essentially equal value, is recorded on the accrual basis when the exchange takes place. On the modified accrual basis, revenue is recorded when the exchange takes place and in the fiscal year in which the resources are measurable and become available. Available means that the resources will be collected within the current fiscal year or are expected to be collected soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current fiscal year. For the School System, the phrase "available for exchange transactions" means expected to be collected within 60 days of fiscal year-end.
Revenues - Non-exchange Transactions - Non-exchange transactions in which the School System receives value without directly giving equal value in return, include sales taxes, property taxes, grants and donations. On an accrual basis, revenue from sales taxes is recognized in the period in which the taxable sale takes place. Revenue from property taxes is recognized in the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied (Note 3-C). Revenue from grants and donations is recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements have been satisfied. Eligibility requirements include timing requirements, which specify the fiscal year when the resources are required to be used or the fiscal year when use is first permitted, matching requirements, in which the School System must provide local resources to be used for a specified purpose, and expenditure requirements, in which the resources are provided to the School System on a reimbursement basis.

Fulton County Board of Education, Georgia Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The State of Georgia reimburses the School System 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 twelve 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 School System over the same twelve 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 fiscal 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 fiscal 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 School System recognizes the same QBE as a receivable and revenue, consistent with symmetrical recognition.
On a modified accrual basis, revenue from non-exchange transactions also must be available (i.e., collected within 60 days of fiscal year-end).
Under the modified accrual basis, the following revenue sources are considered to be susceptible to accrual: property taxes, sales taxes, state Quality Basic Education (QBE) revenue, and federal and state grants. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when the School System receives cash.
Unearned Revenue - Unearned revenue arises when assets are recognized before revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied. As of June 30, 2019, the School System reported unearned revenue in the amount of $1,029,752 in the School Nutrition Fund which represented students' prepaid lunches.
Expenses/Expenditures - On the accrual basis of accounting, expenses are recognized at the time they are incurred. On the modified accrual basis, expenditures generally are recognized in the accounting period in which the related fund liability is incurred and due, if measurable.
1-E. Assets, Liabilities, and Fund Equity
1-E-1 Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Investments
Cash and cash equivalents include amounts in demand deposits as well as short-term investments with a maturity date within three months of the date acquired by the School System. Time deposits are classified as cash and cash equivalent without regard to maturity date. Official Code of Georgia Annotated (OCGA) Section 45-8-14 authorizes the School District to deposit its funds in one or more solvent banks, insured Federal savings and loan associations or insured chartered building and loan associations.
The local government investment pool, "Georgia Fund 1," created by OCGA 36-83-8, is a stable asset value investment pool, which follows Standard and 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 principle ($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 value as of year-end and the School System's investment in the Georgia Fund 1 is reported at fair value. The School System considers amounts held in Georgia Fund 1 as cash equivalents for financial statement presentation. Increases or decreases in fair value during the year are recognized as a component of interest income.
30

Fulton County Board of Education, Georgia Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The School System operates a cash and investment pool which generally all funds utilize, the principal's account fund and the pension trust fund. The School System pools money from the funds to facilitate disbursement and investment and to maximize investment earnings. Therefore, all cash and investments are essentially demand deposits and are considered cash and cash equivalents.
1-E-2 Receivables
All trade and property tax receivables are reported net of an allowance for uncollectibles, where applicable (Note 3-B).
1-E-3 Interfund Balances
On the fund financial statements, receivables and payables resulting from short-term interfund loans are classified as "interfund receivables/interfund payables." These amounts are eliminated in the governmental activities column of the statement of net position (Note 3-E).
1-E-4 Consumable Inventories
On the government-wide financial statements and at the fund financial reporting level, inventories are presented at cost using the weighted average cost method and are expensed when used (i.e., the consumption method). Donated food commodities are presented at fair value.
1-E-5 Prepaid Items
Payments made to vendors for services that will benefit periods beyond June 30, 2019, are recorded as prepaid items using the consumption method by recording an asset for the prepaid amount and reflecting the expenditure/expense in the fiscal year in which services are consumed. At the fund reporting level, an equal amount of fund balance is reported as nonspendable, as this amount is not available for general appropriation.
1-E-6 Capital Assets
General capital assets are those assets that generally result from expenditures in governmental funds. The School System reports these assets in the governmental activities column of the government-wide statement of net position but does not report these assets in the government fund financial statements.

All capital assets are capitalized at cost (or estimated historical cost) and updated for additions and retirements during the fiscal year. Donated capital assets, donated works of art and similar items, and capital assets received in a service concession arrangement are recorded at acquisition value as of the date received. Improvements to capital assets are capitalized. The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend an asset's life are expensed.
All reported capital assets are depreciated except for land and construction in progress. Improvements are depreciated over the remaining useful lives of the related capital assets (Note 3-D).
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the following useful lives:

Asset Class

Governmental Activities
Estimated Lives

Capitalization Threshold

Buildings and improvements

15 - 50 Years

$5,000

Furniture, equipment and vehicles

5 - 15 Years

$5,000

31

Fulton County Board of Education, Georgia Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
At the inception of capital leases at the governmental fund reporting level, expenditures and an "other financing sources" of an equal amount are reported at the net present value of future minimum lease payments.
1-E-7 Compensated Absences
Vacation benefits are accrued as a liability as the benefits are earned if the employees' rights to receive compensation are attributable to services already rendered and it is probable that the employer will compensate the employees for the benefits through paid time off or some other means.
All compensated absence liabilities include salary-related payments, where applicable.
The total compensated absence liability is reported on the government-wide financial statements. Governmental funds report the compensated absence liability at the fund reporting level only "when due."
1-E-8 Accrued Liabilities and Long-term Obligations
All payables, accrued liabilities and long-term obligations are reported in the government-wide financial statements.
In general, governmental fund payables and accrued liabilities that, once incurred, are paid in a timely manner and in full from current financial resources are reported as obligations of these funds. However, compensated absences that will be paid from governmental funds are reported as a liability in the fund financial statements only to the extent that they are "due for payment" during the current fiscal year. General obligation bonds are recognized as a liability in the governmental fund financial statements when due.
1-E-9 Fund Equity (Note 3-K)
Fund equity at the governmental fund financial reporting level is classified as "fund balance." Fund equity at the government-wide financial reporting level is classified as "net position."
Fund Balance Generally, fund balance represents the difference between the current assets and current liabilities and deferred inflows of resources. In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report fund classifications that comprise a hierarchy based primarily on the extent to which the School System 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 the enabling legislation adopted by the School System 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 School System Board of Education through the approval of a formal motion and passage of a resolution. Only, the School System Board of Education also may modify or rescind the commitment through approval of a resolution.
Assigned Fund balances are reported as assigned when amounts are constrained by the School System's intent to be used for specific purposes, but are neither restricted nor committed. Through resolution, the School System Board of Education has authorized the School System's superintendent or designee to assign fund balances.
32

Fulton County Board of Education, Georgia Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Unassigned - Fund balances are reported as unassigned as the residual amount when the balances do not meet any of the above criterion. The School System reports positive unassigned fund balance only in the general fund. Negative unassigned fund balances may be reported in all funds.
Flow Assumptions When both restricted and unrestricted amounts of fund balance are available for use for expenditures incurred, it is the School System's policy to use restricted amounts first and then unrestricted amounts as they are needed. For unrestricted amounts of fund balance, it is the School System's policy to use fund balance in the following order:
Committed Assigned Unassigned
Net position - Net position represents the difference between assets and deferred outflows of resources and liabilities and deferred inflows of resources 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 longterm borrowing used for the acquisition, construction or improvement of those assets. This net position amount also is adjusted by any bond related amounts (such as premiums, discounts, or deferred gains or losses on refundings). Net position is reported as restricted when there are limitations imposed on their use either through the enabling legislation adopted by the School System or through external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors or laws or regulations of other governments. All other net position is reported as unrestricted.
1-E-10 Interfund Activity
Exchange transactions between funds are reported as revenues in the seller funds and as expenditures in the purchaser funds. Flows of cash or goods from one fund to another without a requirement for repayment are reported as interfund transfers. Interfund transfers are reported as other financing sources/uses in governmental funds. Repayments from funds responsible for particular expenditures to the funds that initially paid for them are not presented on the financial statements (i.e., they are netted) (Note 3-E).
Transfers between funds reported in the governmental activities column are eliminated on the government-wide statement of activities.
1-E-11 Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Note 2 Stewardship, Compliance and Accountability
2-A. Budgetary Information The School System adopts an annual budget for its general fund, all special revenue funds (excluding the principals' accounts), and the debt service fund. The budget is prepared in accordance with provisions of the Quality Basic Education Act, OCGA Section 20-2-167. The School System adopts a project budget for its capital projects funds. Budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with GAAP.
The legal level of budgetary control (the level at which expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations) for the adopted annual operating budget for the general fund, school nutrition program, special revenue funds and the debt service fund is the function level within fund. For budgeted special revenue funds (excluding the school nutrition program), the legal level of budgetary control is the function level within the aggregate of the total of all special revenue funds with budgets. The School System's management is authorized to transfer appropriations between functions within the same fund totaling less than $100,000. The School Board approves all transfers of appropriations between functions of $100,000 or more and all transfers of appropriations between funds, except as described below.
33

Fulton County Board of Education, Georgia Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019

Note 2 Stewardship, Compliance and Accountability (Continued)

The budget is allocated to schools (i.e., cost centers) and cost center managers may transfer appropriations between functions as long as the transfer to one function can be offset by unused budget dollars in another function.

The original 2019 budget was amended during the fiscal year. All unexpended annual appropriations lapse at fiscal year-end.

Note 3 Detailed Notes on All Funds
3-A. Deposits and Investments
Deposits (Governmental Funds)
The School System's cash and investment policy limits deposits to demand and money market accounts, and time deposits at local banks. The School System's deposits shall be secured by Federal Depositary Insurance Corporation (FDIC) coverage and/or bank pledges. State statutes require all deposits and investments (other than federal or state government instruments) to be covered by depository insurance or pledged securities. Amounts that exceed standard depository insurance limits are required to be collateralized either (1) individually by the financial institutions through pledged obligations of the U.S. Government, obligations backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, obligations of the State of Georgia or other states, or obligations of counties, municipalities, or public authorities of the State of Georgia, or (2) participation in the State of Georgia Secure Deposit Program. As of June 30, 2019, the financial institutions holding all of the School System's deposits are participants of the State of Georgia Secure Deposit Program, which is administered by the Office of the State Treasurer, and requires participating banks holding deposits of public funds to pledge collateral at varying rates depending on the tier assigned by the state. As of June 30, 2019, all of the School System's bank balances were insured and/or collateralized as defined by GASB and required by state statutes.
Custodial Credit Risk Deposits The custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of a bank failure, the School System's deposits may not be recovered or may not be able to recover collateralized securities that are in the possession of an outside party.
Funds included in the Georgia Fund 1, administered by the Office of the State Treasurer, are not required to be collateralized.

34

Fulton County Board of Education, Georgia Notes to the Basic Financial Statements For the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019

Note 3 Detailed Notes on All Funds (Continued)

The fair value of the School System's position in the pool approximates the value of the School System's pool shares. Credit risk, value, and interest risk at June 30, 2019 are as follows:

Credit Risk AAAf rated

Value $ 468,433,918

Interest Risk 39 day WAM

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 School System does not disclose its investment in the Georgia Fund 1 within the fair value hierarchy established by GASB Statement No. 72.
Investments (Governmental Funds)
Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates of debt investments will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. The School System's surplus funds management policy does not formally limit investment maturities as a means of managing its exposure to fair value losses arising from increasing interest rates.
Credit Quality Risk Credit quality risk is that an issuer or other counterparty to an investment will not fulfill its obligations. The School System does not have a specific investment policy for investments of its governmental funds.
Custodial Credit Risk Custodial credit risk is the risk that, in the event of a bank failure, the School System's investments
may not be recovered. Because of the collateralization requirements, the School System has no custodial credit risk for its investments.
Concentration of Credit Risk Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss attributed to the magnitude of the School System's investment in a single issuer. The School System does not have a formally adopted investment policy for managing concentration of credit risk.

Credit Quality Risk The Pension Trust Fund policy prohibits investments in direct real estate, and no more than 75% (at cost) of Pension Trust Fund assets shall be invested in equities. It is the Pension Trust Fund's policy to limit investments in common or preferred stock of a corporation to those corporations listed on one or more of the recognized national stock exchanges in the United States, or those traded on the NASDAQ National Market as required by Georgia law. Domestic bonds are limited to those with ratings that meet or exceed Standard and Poor's BBB or Moody's Baa ratings. The policy also limits stock investments to not more than five (5) percent of the cost of any assets of any fund in common or preferred stock of any one issuing corporation and the aggregate investment of any fund in any one issuing corporation shall not exceed three (3) percent of the outstanding capital stock of that corporation.

The Pension Trust Fund's investments at June 30, 2019 are comprised of only mutual funds and limited partnership holdings that are not rated by any of the major ratings agencies.

Concentration of Credit Risk Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss attributed to the magnitude of the Pension Trust Fund's investment in a single issuer. The only investments in excess of 5% of the School System's investment portfolio are federal securities and mutual funds, both of which are not subject to this risk.

Foreign Currency Risk As of June 30, 2019, $130,661,198 or 30.6% of the Pension Trust Fund's assets had exposure of
foreign currency risk through investments in foreign companies. These investments had the form of US dollars invested in mutual funds with only international equity holdings.

Rate of Return For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, the annual money-weighted rate of return on pension plan investments, net of pension plan investment expense, was 5.17%. The money-weighted rate of return expresses investment performance, net of investment expense, adjusted for the changing amounts actually invested.

Long-range Expected Rate of Return The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and 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 long-range expected rate of return as of June 30, 2019 is 7%.

Fair Value Measurements The Pension Trust Fund 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 Pension Trust Fund has the following recurring fair value measurements as of June 30, 2019:

The investments classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using prices quoted in active markets for those securities. This includes the mutual funds invested in both equity and fixed income securities.
The private investment fund measured at the net asset value invests primarily in venture capital investments, leveraged buyouts (LBOs), and distressed debt and equity. As of June 30, 2019, the fund is invested in complex structures in underlying holdings, alternative investments, and items that fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The limited partnership will continue until the dissolution of the last underlying fund or termination at the General Partner's discretion. Withdrawals, redemptions, or transfers are not permitted during the life of the partnership.

3-F. Deferred Inflows/Outflows of Resources
Fund Financial Reporting Level - In addition to liabilities, the Statement of Net Position and the governmental funds balance sheet report a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflow of resources, represents an acquisition of net position that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. The School System reports one of these items, unavailable revenue, only in the governmental funds balance sheet. The governmental funds report unavailable revenues for property taxes ($10,302,719). This amount is deferred and recognized as an inflow of resources in the period that the amount becomes available.
Government-wide Financial Reporting Level - The School System also has deferred inflows of resources and deferred outflows of resources related to the recording of changes in its net pension liability and net other postemployment benefits (OPEB) liability. Certain changes in the net pension liability and net OPEB liability are recognized as pension and OPEB expenses over time instead of all being recognized in the year of occurrence. Experience gains or losses result from periodic studies by the School System's actuary which adjust the net pension liability and net OPEB liability for actual experience for certain trend information that was previously assumed, for example the assumed dates of retirement of Plan members. These experience gains or losses are recorded as deferred outflows of resources or deferred inflows of resources and are amortized into pension and OPEB expenses over the expected remaining service lives of Plan members.

Note 3 - Detailed Notes on All Funds (Continued)

3-F. Deferred Inflows/Outflows of Resources (Continued)

Changes in actuarial assumptions, changes in proportion, and the difference between School System contributions and the proportionate share of contributions, which adjust the net pension liability and net OPEB liability, are also recorded as deferred outflows of resources or deferred inflows of resources and are amortized into pension and OPEB expense over the expected remaining service lives of Plan members. The difference between projected investment return on pension investments and actual return on those investments is also deferred and amortized against pension and OPEB expense over a five-year period. Additionally, any contributions made by the School System to the pension and OPEB plans before fiscal year end but subsequent to the measurement date of the School System's net pension liability and net OPEB liability are reported as deferred outflows of resources.

3-G. Compensated Absences

School System employees can earn annual vacation leave based on length of service, up to a maximum of 20 days after 10 years of service. Annual vacation leave may be accumulated up to a maximum of 60 days. Sick and personal leave is accrued at 1.25 to 2 days per month, and may be accumulated, up to 20 days per year, with a maximum accumulation of 120 days. If an employee retires from the School System with a minimum of 10 years of service, the School System will pay the employee for one-half of their accumulated sick and personal leave, up to 40 days (a total of 80 days of accumulated leave).

3-H. Long-term Debt and Obligations

Governmental Activities The School System has the following long-term debt obligations at June 30, 2019.

1998 Series General Obligation Bonds On June 15, 1998, the School System issued $135,150,000 of general obligation refunding bonds, Series 1998, with interest payments due semiannually on January 1 and July 1 and principal payments due on January 1 of each fiscal year. Interest rates vary from 4.0% to 5.5%. This debt refunded general obligation bonds, Series 1993 in the amount of $160,710,000.

2011 Intergovernmental Agreement City of Union City, Georgia On August 1, 2011, the School System entered into an intergovernmental agreement with the City of Union City, Georgia to pay the City installments sufficient for the City to pay their debt service on bonds. The bonds, issued in the amount of $35,635,000, are special limited obligation revenue term bonds (federally taxable qualified school construction bonds direct payment) of the City. The bonds carry an interest rate of 4.730% and are due January 1, 2027. Under the agreement, the School System will pay the City installment payments sufficient to pay the debt service on the bonds. The School System's obligation to make payments is absolute and unconditional. The bonds are being issued for the purpose of paying a portion of the cost of constructing and equipping a replacement high school for the existing Banneker High School.
The School System is subject to the laws of the State of Georgia, which limits the amount of net bonded debt the School System may have outstanding to 10% of the assessed valuation of taxable property within Fulton county. At fiscal year-end, general obligation bonds and contractual obligation debt outstanding ($41,390,331), net of amounts available in the Debt Service Fund ($4,205,299), totaled $37,185,032. The statutory limit as of June 30, 2019 was $3,337,314,271, providing a debt margin of $3,330,129,239.

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 Teachers Retirement System of Georgia (TRS) and the Fulton County School Employees Pension Plan and additions to/deductions from these plans fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by these plans. 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.

Teachers' Retirement System of Georgia (TRS)

Plan Description - Substantially all teachers, administrators, and clerical personnel employed by the School System are members of TRS. TRS provides retirement and disability benefits, and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. Title 47, Chapter 3 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, assigns the authority to establish and amend benefit provisions to the TRS Board of Trustees. TRS, is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan, and is administered by the TRS Board of Trustees (TRS Board). Title 47 of the O.C.G.A. which 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 www.trsga.com/publications.

Plan Benefits - A member is eligible for retirement after 30 years of creditable service, regardless of age, or after 10 years of creditable service and attainment of age 60. A member is eligible for early retirement after 25 years of creditable service. If an employee retires under this provision, the benefit will be permanently reduced by the lesser of one-twelfth of 7% for each month below age 60, or 7% for each year or fraction of a year less than 30 years of creditable service. Retirement benefits paid to members are equal to 2% of the average of the member's two consecutive highest paid years of service multiplied by the number of years of creditable service up to 40 years. The normal retirement pension is payable monthly for life. Options are available for distribution of the member's monthly pension at a reduced rate to a designated beneficiary on the member's death.

Retirement benefits also include death and disability benefits whereby the disabled member or surviving spouse is entitled to receive annually an amount equal to the member's service retirement benefit or disability retirement, whichever is greater. The benefit is based on the member's creditable service (minimum of 10 years) and compensation up to the date of death.

Members become fully vested after ten years of service. If a member is terminated with less than ten years of service, no vesting of employer contributions occurs, but the member's contribution is refunded with interest.

Funding Policy - 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 2019. The School District's contractually required contribution rate for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 was 20.90% of annual School District payroll. District contributions to TRS were $120,990,248 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.

Pension Liabilities, Pension Expense, and Deferred Outflows of Resources and Deferred Inflows of Resources Related to Pensions - At June 30, 2019, the School System reported a liability for its proportionate share of the net pension liability that reflected a reduction for support provided to the School System by the State of Georgia for certain public school support personnel.
The amount recognized by the School System as its proportionate share of the net pension liability, the related State of Georgia support, and the total portion of the net pension liability that was associated with the School District were as follows:

$ 892,008,003

State of Georgia's proportionate share of the net pension liability associated with the Schoool System

594,731

Total

$ 892,602,734

The net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2018. The total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was based on an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2017. An expected total pension liability as of June 30, 2018 was determined using standard roll-forward techniques. The District's proportion of the net pension liability was based on contributions to TRS during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. At June 30, 2018, the District's proportion was 4.805523%, which was an increase of 0.004599% from its proportion measured as of June 30, 2017.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, the District recognized total pension expense of $119,994,608 ($96,540,898 for the TRS Plan and $23,453,710 for the Local Pension Plan) and revenue of $24,620 (pertaining to the TRS Plan) for support provided by the State of Georgia for certain support personnel . At June 30, 2019, the District reported deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions (TRS) from the following sources:

Actuarial assumptions: The total pension liability as of June 30, 2018 (measurement date) was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2017 using the following actuarial assumptions, applied to all periods included in the measurement:
Inflation 2.75% Salary increases 3.25 9.00% Investment rate of return 7.50%, net of pension plan investment expense, including inflation
Postretirement 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 requirements and dependent beneficiaries. The RP-2000 Disabled Mortality table with future mortality improvement projected to 2025 with Society of Actuaries' projection scale BB (set forward two years for males and four years for females) was used for the 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. There is a margin for future mortality improvements in the tables used by the School System. Based on the results of the most recent experience study adopted by the Board on November 18, 2015, the numbers of expected future deaths are 8-11% 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.
The actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2017 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 log-normal 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:

Discount Rate The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that employee contributions will be made at the current contribution rate and that the School System's contributions will be made at rates equal to the difference between actuarially determined contribution rates and the employee 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 active and inactive employees. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.

Sensitivity of the Net Pension Liability to Changes in the Discount Rate The following presents the School System proportionate share of the net pension liability calculated using the discount rate of 7.50%, as well as what the District's proportionate share of the net pension liability would be if it were calculated using a discount rate that is 1-percentage-point lower (6.50 %) or 1-percentage-point higher (8.50 %) than the current rate:

Plan Benefits Benefits for members covered under the 1978 Pension Law are 2% of the participant's final average monthly earnings multiplied by the years of creditable service. For members covered under the 1962 Pension Law, benefits are 1.76% of the participant's final average monthly earnings multiplied by years of creditable service. The maximum monthly benefit is equal to 75% of final average monthly earnings. The Fund awards a 3% cost of living increase annually.
Benefits vest after 10 years of service. An employee is eligible to retire with an unreduced benefit at the earliest of: age 65 with 10 years of service, age 60 with 25 years of service, or 30 years of services. Benefits vary based on certain benefit elections made by members.
Funding Policy - The contribution requirements of Plan members and the School System are established in accordance with the applicable state and local pension law. Fund members covered under the 1978 law contribute 6.6% of gross salary if beneficiary coverage is elected and 5.6% of gross salary if beneficiary is not elected. Members covered under the 1962 law contribute 6% of gross salary if beneficiary coverage is elected and 5% of gross salary if beneficiary coverage was not elected. Members covered under laws prior to 1962 contribute amounts prescribed in those laws. The School System's contribution is the actuarially determined amount necessary to fund Plan benefits; the current rate is 42.19% of annual covered payroll. The contribution requirements of Plan members and the School System are established and may be amended by the Pension Board. Total contributions to the Plan for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 was $24,236,000.
Net Pension Liability - The School System's net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2019, and the total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date.

Actuarial Assumptions The total pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2018 with update procedures performed by the actuary to roll forward to the total pension liability measured as of June 30, 2019. The following actuarial assumptions apply to all periods included in the measurement:

Inflation Salary increases Mortality
Investment rate of return

2.75% 2.75% - 5.75% RP-2000 Mortality Table set forward 3 years for males and 1 year for females, projected generationally using scale AA with separate tables for employees/healthy annuitants 7% net of investment expenses per annum, compounded annually

The actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2018 valuation were based on the results of a formal experience study for the period of July, 2011 July, 2016.

The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments is reviewed regularly as part of experience studies prepared for the Fund. The results of the most recent experience study, presented in a report dated May 16, 2018, indicated an assumed rate of return of 7.00%. The average long-term capital market assumptions published in the Survey of Capital Market Assumptions: 2019 Edition by Horizon Actuarial Services, LLC, yield a median real return of 4.48%. Combining the median real return with the 2.75% assumed inflation assumption results in a nominal return of 7.23%. As a result, the longterm assumed rate return is the same as that as adopted by the Board of 7.00%.

The target asset allocation and best estimates of arithmetic real rates of return for each major asset class are summarized in the following table. The source of the information is the Survey of Capital Market Assumptions: 2019 Edition published by Horizon Actuarial Services, LLC:

Discount Rate The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.00 percent. The long-term expected return on plan investments may be used to discount liabilities to the extent that the Plan's Fiduciary Net Position is projected to cover benefit payments and administrative expenses. A 20-year high quality (AA/Aa or higher) municipal bond rate must be used for periods where the FNP is not projected to cover benefit payments and administrative expenses. Determining the discount rate under GASB 67 will often require that the actuary perform complex projections of future benefit payments and asset values. GASB 67 does allow for alternative evaluations of projected solvency, if such evaluation can reliably be made. GASB does not contemplate a specific method for making an alternative evaluation of sufficiency; it is left to professional judgment.
Sensitivity of the Net Pension Liability to Changes in the Discount Rate The following presents the net pension liability of the School System, calculated using the discount rate of 7%, as well as the School System's net pension liability would be if it were calculated using a discount rate that is 1% lower (i.e., 6%) or 1% higher (i.e., 8%) than the current rate.

Actuarial valuations involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of events far into the future, and actuarially determined amounts are subject to continual revision as results are compared to past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. Actuarial calculations reflect a long-term perspective. Calculations are based on the substantive plan in effect as of June 30, 2019 and the current sharing pattern of costs between employer and employee.

3-J. Other Postemployment Employment Benefits
Plan Description - The School System participates in the State of Georgia School Employees Postemployment Benefit Fund (the "School OPEB Fund") which is another postemployment benefit (OPEB) plan administered by the State of Georgia Department of Community Health (DCH). Certified teachers and non-certified employees of the School System 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 costsharing multiple-employer defined benefit postemployment 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-financial-reports.
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 OPEB Fund is permitted.
Contributions - As established by the Board of Community Health, the School OPEB Fund is substantially funded on a payas-you-go 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 School System were $28,998,829 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. Active employees are not required to contribute to the School OPEB Fund.
Other Postemployment Benefits - 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 Postemployment Benefit Fund (School OPEB) 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.

OPEB Liabilities, OPEB Expense, and Deferred Outflows of Resources and Deferred Inflows of Resources Related to OPEB - At June 30, 2019, the School System reported a liability of $684,838,555 for its proportionate share of the net OPEB liability. The net OPEB liability was measured as of June 30, 2018. The total OPEB liability used to calculate the net OPEB liability was based on an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2017. An expected total OPEB liability as of June 30, 2018 was determined using standard roll-forward techniques. The School System'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, 2018. At June 30 2018, the School System's proportion was 5.388317%, which was a decrease of 0.017599% from its proportion measured as of June 30, 2017.

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, the School System recognized OPEB expense of $28,092,848. At June 30, 2019, the

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 1 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 2 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 3 years for males and 2 years for females) was used for the period after service retirement and for beneficiaries of deceased members. The RP-2000 Disabled Mortality Table projected to 2025 with projection scale BB (set forward 5 years for both males and females) was used for the period after disability retirement.

The actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2017 valuation were based on the results of an actuarial experience study for the pension system, which covered the five-year period ending June 30, 2014.
Projection of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as understood by the School System 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.

Discount rate - The discount rate has changed since the prior measurement date from 3.58% to 3.87%. In order to measure the total OPEB liability for the School OPEB Fund, a single equivalent interest rate of 3.87% was used as the discount rate. This is comprised mainly of the yield or index rate for 20 year tax-exempt general obligation municipal bonds with an average rating of AA or higher (3.87% 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 2118. 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 2018. 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 2018. Therefore, the calculated discount rate of 3.87% was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total OPEB liability.

Sensitivity of the School System's proportionate share of the net OPEB liability to changes in the discount rate - The following presents the School System's proportionate share of the net OPEB liability calculated using the discount rate of 3.87%, as well as what the School System's proportionate share of the net OPEB liability would be if it were calculated using a discount rate that is 1-percentage-point lower (2.87%) or 1-percentage-point higher (4.87%) than the current rate:

4-A. Risk Management

The School System is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets (property, plant and equipment); Management Liability (School Board Legal); Workers' Compensation (job related injuries or illnesses to employees); Fleet accidents (vehicle(s)); theft of funds (money, securities, etc.); Acts of God and Unemployment Compensation.

The School System has in place commercial insurance for risk of loss exposures associated with assets (property, plant and equipment) and theft of funds (money, securities, etc.). Effective July 1, 2009 the School System began self-insuring the following exposures under a Defense and Indemnity Agreement: Fleet (all District owned vehicles), School Children in Transit; Employment Related Incidents, excluding Workers' Compensation, Management Liability, and General Liability. The School System also relies on the protection of Sovereign Immunity under the Georgia Constitution.

Workers' Compensation Claims The School System has elected to self-insure its Workers' Compensation exposure. The School System has established a Risk Management Program to include Workers' Compensation administration and claims. In connection with this program, a Self-Insurance Reserve Fund has been established within the General Fund by the School System. The School System accounts for claims within the General Fund with expenses/expenditures and liabilities being reported when it is probable that a loss has occurred and the amount of that loss can be reasonably estimated.

Changes in the Workers' Compensation claims liability during the last three fiscal years are as follows:

The School System has purchased surety bonds to provide additional insurance coverage as follows:

4-B. Contingent Liabilities

Grant Contingencies - The School System has received federal and state grants for specific purposes that are subject to review and audit by the grantor agencies or their designee. These audits could result in a request for reimbursement to the grantor agency for costs disallowed under terms of the grant. Based on prior experience, the School System believes such disallowances, if any, will be immaterial.

Litigation - The School System was a defendant in several lawsuits at June 30, 2019. The total range of reasonably possible amounts for these cases is from $10,000 to $253,000. In the opinion of School System management and legal counsel, any potential liability related to these suits pending or unasserted claims are immaterial.

There is no liability reported since all costs will be reimbursed.
4-E. Tax Abatements
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, School System tax revenues were reduced by $6,184,622 as a result of agreements entered into by the Development Authority of Fulton County. Under these agreements, taxes on both real and personal property are reduced based on incentives and economic development programs offered by the Development Authority.

Notes to the Schedule:
(1) Changes of assumptions: Postretirement 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 Society of Actuaries' projection scale BB (set forward two years for males and four 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 November 18, 2015, the numbers of expected future deaths are 8-11% 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.

(2) Schedule is intended to show ten (10) years of information; additional years will be added as they are available.

Statistical Section (Unaudited)
Hembree Springs Elementary Aadam Sabri Jiffry 1st Grade

Fulton County Board of Education, Georgia Introduction to the Statistical Section
(Unaudited)

This part of Fulton County Board of Education's (School System) comprehensive annual financial report presents detailed information as a context for understanding this fiscal year's financial statements, note disclosures, and supplementary information. This information is unaudited.
Contents
Financial Trends
These tables contain financial statement trend information that may assist the reader in assessing the School System's current financial performance by placing it in a historical perspective. In fiscal year 2009, the School System blended its charter schools as special revenue funds. In fiscal year 2011 the charter schools were reclassified as discretely presented component units. Fiscal year 2008 have not been restated to reflect these changes in the reporting entity.
Revenue Capacity These tables contain information that may assist the reader in assessing the viability of the School System's two most significant "own-source" revenue sources: property taxes and sales taxes.
Debt Capacity These tables present information that may assist the reader in analyzing the affordability of the School System's current levels of outstanding debt and the School System's ability to issue additional debt in the future.
Demographic and Economic Information These tables present demographic and economic information intended (1) to assist users in understanding the socioeconomic environment within which the School System operates and (2) to provide information that facilitates comparisons of financial statement information over time and among school systems.
Operating Information These tables contain service indicators that can improve one's understanding on how the information in the School System's financial statements relates to the services the School System provides and the activities it performs.
Data Source: Unless otherwise noted, the information in these tables is derived from the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the applicable fiscal year.

Notes 1 Accounting standards require that net position be reported in three components in the financial statements: net investment in capital assets; restricted; and unrestricted. Net position are considered
restricted only when (1) an external party, such as the Georgia Department of Education or the Federal government, places a restriction on how the resources may be used, or (2) enabling legislation is
enacted by the School District. 2 The large increases in these amounts represent the construction of school buildings funded by the special purpose local option sales tax. 3 In fiscal year 2014, the School District implemented GASB Statement No. 68 which required a restatement of the 6/30/2014 net position . The School System now is recording a net pension liability and
other related pension deferred inflows and outflows accounts. 4 In fiscal year 2018, the School District implemented GASB Statement No. 75 which required a restatement of the 7/1/2017 net position. The School System now is recording a net OPEB liability and other related OPEB deferred inflows and outflows
accounts.

Notes
1 Includes non-capitalized charges to the facilities acquisition and construction function. Beginning in fiscal year 2010, this amount has been allocated to other functions. 2 In the State of Georgia, the use of the "Basic Quality Education" aid is restricted to certain functions; therefore, it is reported as program revenue, rather than as general revenue. 3 The State of Georgia added a requirement that the administration of Federal Grants be reported separately during the current and future fiscal years.

Notes 1 For consistency, certain amounts have been reclassified between reserved and unreserved fund balances. 2 Beginning in fiscal year 2005, large construction contracts have been encumbered, resulting in deficit
unreserved fund balances. These deficits will be eliminated as sales taxes are collected. 3 In fiscal year 2008, the School System retired early a long-term pension note payable of $38,015,118,
resulting in a reduction of the unreserved fund balance.

Notes
1 An education special purpose local option sales tax (ESPLOST) was approved November 11, 2011 and is effective January 1, 2012 and expired June 30, 2017. These taxes were used towards the cost of acquiring, constructing, equipping and upgrading various school facilities and improvements and to repay principal and interest on outstanding School District bonded indebtedness.
2 The one-percent local option sales tax was approved by referendum October 1, 1987 and is effective indefinitely. The County is required to reduce their property tax millage rate in the current fiscal year by the amount of these taxes collected in the prior fiscal year.
3 This sales tax rate is levied in counties in the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) district which have a service contract with MARTA, currently Fulton and DeKalb counties. 4 Some incorporated areas within the County also levy the one-percent local option sales tax.

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 Superintendent and Members of the Fulton County Board of Education
Atlanta, Georgia
We have audited, 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, the financial statements of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Fulton County Board of Education (the "School System") as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the School System's basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated December 23, 2019.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the School System'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 School System's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the School System'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.
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. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.

Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Fulton County Board of Education'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. 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 result 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON COMPLIANCE FOR EACH MAJOR FEDERAL PROGRAM AND REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL
OVER COMPLIANCE REQUIRED BY THE UNIFORM GUIDANCE
To the Superintendent and Members of the Fulton County Board of Education
Atlanta, Georgia
Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program
We have audited the Fulton County Board of Education's (the "School System's") compliance with the types of compliance requirements described in the OMB Compliance Supplement that could have a direct and material effect on each of the School System's major federal programs for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. The School System's major federal programs are identified in the summary of auditor's results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs.
Management's Responsibility
Management is responsible for compliance with federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of its federal awards applicable to its federal programs.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for each of the School System's major federal programs based on our audit of the types of compliance requirements referred to above. We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Those 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 School System'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 School System's compliance.
Opinion on Each Major Federal Program
In our opinion, the Fulton County Board of Education complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.
200 GALLERIA PARKWAY S.E., SUITE 1700 ATLANTA, GA 30339-5946 770-955-8600 800-277-0080 FAX 770-980-4489 www.mjcpa.com Members of The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants

Others 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 items 2019-001 and 2019-002. Our opinion on each major federal program is not modified with respect to these matters.
The School System's responses to the noncompliance findings identified in our audit are described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs and management's corrective action plan. The School System's responses were not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of compliance and, accordingly, we express no opinion on them.
Report on Internal Control Over Compliance
Management of the School System 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 School System'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 School System'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.
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 identified certain deficiencies in internal control over compliance, as described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as items 2019-001 and 2019-002, that we consider to be material weaknesses.
The School System's responses to the internal control over compliance findings identified in our audit are described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs and management's corrective action plan. The School System's responses were not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of compliance and accordingly, we express no opinion on the responses.
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.

Condition and Context: During our testing of procurement, suspension, and debarment for covered transactions, we noted the School System's Contracting Department had not been informed that certain purchases were being procured with Federal funds and therefore they did not test certain vendors for inclusion on the Federal suspended or debarred list. Six (6) out of seven (7) vendors reviewed during our testing were not reviewed by the School System in accordance with the procurement, suspension, and debarment compliance requirement nor was a clause included in the covered transaction contract requiring the vendor not be suspended or debarred.
Cause: The Contracting Department of the School System was aware of the suspension and debarment requirement but was not aware that certain vendors were being procured using Federally-sourced funding. Therefore, they did not test these vendors prior to entering into covered transactions; however, during our testing, there were no parties noted on the excluded parties listing.
Effects: Not performing a verification check for covered transactions, by checking the Excluded Parties List System (EPLS), collecting a certification from the vendor, or adding a clause or condition to the covered transaction with the vendor could result in Federal funds being used to pay a vendor who has been suspended or debarred.
Questioned Costs: None
Recommendation: We recommend the School System take necessary steps in the future to ensure there is a verification check for covered transactions, by checking the EPLS, collecting a certification from the vendor, or adding a clause or condition to the contract with a vendor prior to paying any Federal funds to a particular entity. Communication should be improved within the School System in terms of identifying federally funded contracts to ensure the School System is in compliance with 2 CFR part 200.
Auditee's Response: The Procurement Department is updating their internal justification forms to include a question which asks whether or not Federal funds are associated with a purchase so as to correctly identify Federal funding sources.

SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2019
SECTION III FEDERAL AWARDS FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS
2019-002 Time & Effort Logs U.S. Department of Education for Title VI, Part B, (CFDA #84.027 & 84.173)
Criteria: In accordance with the terms of the Title VI, Part B and 2 CFR Part 200, specific documentation must be maintained to support salaries and wages charged to the federal program. The School System's policy includes a process where employees who are expected to work solely on a single federal award or cost objective, charges for their salaries and wages will be supported by periodic certifications that the employees worked solely on that program for the period covered by the certification. These certifications will be prepared at least semi-annually and will be signed by the employee or supervisory official having first-hand knowledge of the work performed by the employee. Where employees work on multiple activities or cost objectives, the School System's policy requires a distribution of their salaries or wages be supported by personnel activity reports or equivalent documentation Condition and Context: For fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, internal controls over compliance were not sufficient to ensure the School System was properly charging payroll costs which were reimbursed by the Title VI, Part B grants in accordance with their policy. In our sample of fifty-three (53) employees who were paid with Title VI, Part B funds, we noted two (2) instances in which employees whose activities were split between multiple cost objectives had not recorded their time and effort due to a malfunction of the software used to track time and effort. Cause: Malfunction of software used for time and effort caused certain employees not to track their time and effort. Effects or possible effects: Not tracking time and effort can result in spending Federal funds on unallowable costs . Questioned Costs: Likely questioned costs of approximately $389,000. Recommendation: We recommend the School System take steps to ensure that time and effort continues to be tracked even when there are software malfunctions. Auditee's Response: We will continue to review our internal controls to ensure that a system is in place to maintain time and effort even in the event of software malfunctions.

STATUS OF PRIOR FISCAL YEAR AUDIT FINDINGS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2019
STATUS OF PRIOR FISCAL YEAR AUDIT FINDINGS 2018-001 Restatement of Net Position of Governmental Activities
Criteria: Internal controls should be in place to ensure receivables are properly recorded at year-end in the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Condition: Internal controls were not sufficient to prevent misstatements in reporting of the School System's loans receivables on the statement of net position of its governmental activities. Context/Cause: During our audit fieldwork, we discovered that a restatement of governmental activities beginning net position and assets were required due to the School System not properly recording loan receivables related to the sale of capital assets in the proper period. Effects or possible effects: In fiscal years 2015 and 2016, the School System sold two properties and signed two promissory notes for the proceeds due. At the point of sale, the School System was required to record a long-term receivable in the total amount of $2,349,000 in the governmental activities statement of net position for the combined selling price, less earnest money, of the two properties. However, the School System did not record a receivable for these two properties in the prior period. During fiscal years 2015, 2016, and 2017, a total of $418,000 was received related to these properties, making the net receivable related to these two properties $1,931,000 as of June 30, 2017. Therefore, a restatement to increase net position and long-term assets (loans receivable) as of June 30, 2017 is required in the amount of $1,931,000. Status: Corrected for the current fiscal year's audit.

146

Corrective Action Plan: 1) At the beginning of every fiscal year, the Accounting office will provide the Contracting department with
a list of federal funding sources.
2) Prior to the creation of a vendor (or other type of contracting authorization) using federal funding sources, the EPLS will be checked to ensure eligibility.
3) On a quarterly basis, the Accounting Department will run vendor reports to cross reference vendor list with EPLS and will notify the Contracting department with any change of status.
Anticipated Completion Date: The School District will begin implementation of the Correction Action Plan in January of 2020.

Corrective Action Plan: 1. The School District has an additional software system called CRATE which is used to track
time and effort for the Title I programs. The Special Ed team will begin using this system to track time and effort to ensure fidelity in the collection of the certificates. 2. If there are additional system failures, the School District will switch over to the manual process identified below:
Financial Analyst will run funding report Specialist will merge funding report with Certificate template in WORD to create
a mirror version of the certificate within SAP. Anticipated Completion Date: The School District will begin implementation of the Correction Action Plan in January of 2020.
