- FRCS FY25 Revised Draft Financial Statements.pdf
Mr. Yezukevich began the discussion on MTRS. Three employees were misclassified as being ineligible for MTRS pension. Teaching staff in the school is required to be in the MTRS pension system and not pay into the traditional Social Security and Medicare. These employees paid into Social Security and the error was recently found and reported to FRCS by MTRS.
The difference between what two employees would get in MTRS from the beginning and what they would receive from Social Security for two employees is $173,189.50. The third employee's amount is being calculated. This amount will be disclosed in the financials as a footnote of the expected amount.
The auditors have advised that, since the expense accrued before FY25, it can be debited in that year and still be in compliance with debt covenants.
The audit report will need to be revised along with the charter school report by the end of the calendar year.
Discussion ensued. Processes and procedures are now in place to have MTRS approve all job descriptions of employees and eligibility for the pension system.
