The Budget is adopted by the Governing Board prior to July 1 of each year.
 
Interim Financial Reports are filed twice during the fiscal year on the status of the local education agencies (LEAs) financial health. 
 
Unaudited Actuals are the District's prepared year-end financial statements as of June 30 of each school year. This is a report of all activities in all District funds, using the State format known as Standardized Account Code Structures (SACS). This report is used by external auditors to prepare the official Audit Report.
Audit Reports are submitted to the State Controller, State Superintendent of Public Instruction and the Yuba County Office of Education by December 15 each year.

The Education Protection Account (EPA) was created with the passage of Proposition 30 in November 2012 and extended with the approval of Proposition 55 in November 2016. Pursuant to Section 36 of Article XIII of the California Constitution, the EPA funding is general purpose state aid funding and is a component of the District's total Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) entitlement.
