Pupil Accounting

The Menominee County ISD provides training and technical support to both new and experienced Building Secretaries and Pupil Accounting Specialists at each Local District. It is the goal of the ISD to ensure that Local Districts have up-to-date and accurate information on state-approved auditing forms, legislative changes, reporting requirements, and best practices related to Pupil Accounting & Attendance. The ISD employs a Pupil Accounting Auditor, who is responsible for the Desk & Field Audits of all Count Day information at both the Building & District Level for all Local Districts in the ISD.
