School District/ Joint Agreement Budget
Form - FY09
Laws effective July 1, 2008 for School Districts / Joint Agreements: New Rules
The provisions of (23) Illinois Administrative Code – Part 100 become effective July 1, 2008 (FY2009). The new requirements for accounting, budgeting, financial reporting and auditing address many of the same issues as in the past. They will eventually replace both Part 110 (Program Accounting Manual) and Part 125 (Student Activity Funds and Convenience Accounts). The Fiscal Year 2009 School District/Joint Agreement Budget forms reflect these new rules. The following is a link to Part 100 and related information: http://www.isbe.net/finance/htmls/rule_changes.htm

School Districts should pay close attention to the deadline date for submitting the electronic FY2009 School District Budget Form in the excel spreadsheet to ISBE by October 31, 2008.
