MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK

LA GRANGE SCHOOL DISTRICT 102MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017

As management of La Grange School District 102 (the District), we offer readers of the District's AnnualFinancial Report this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the District for the fiscalyear ended June 30, 2017.

Financial Highlights

• The assets and deferred outflows of resources of the District exceeded its liabilities at the closeof the most recent fiscal year by $14,879,926 (net position).

• The total net position of the District decreased by $1,751,992 during fiscal year 2017.

• The District's governmental funds reported combined fund balances of $10,859,281, a decreaseof $3,875,805 in comparison with the prior year.

• At the end of the current fiscal year, unrestricted fund balance (the total of the committed,assigned, and unassigned components of fund balance) for the General Fund was a deficit of$148,767.

• The District's long-term liabilities decreased by $2,969,782 to $42,594,401. This decrease wasthe net result of the normal repayment of bonds and debt certificates, offset by the addition of anew installment contract and accreted interest.

Overview of the Financial Statements

The discussion and analysis provided here is intended to serve as an introduction to the District's basicfinancial statements. The basic financial statements consist of three components: 1) government-widefinancial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) the notes to basic financial statements. This reportalso contains combining and individual fund financial statements and schedules and other supplementaryinformation intended to furnish additional detail to support the basic financial statements themselves.

Government-wide Financial Statements

The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide the reader of the District's AnnualFinancial Report with a broad overview of the financial activities, in a manner similar to a private-sectorbusiness.

The statement of net position - modified cash basis presents information about all of the District's assets,deferred outflows of resources, and liabilities as reported using the modified cash basis of accounting. Thedifference between assets, deferred outflows of resources, and liabilities is reported as net position. Overtime, changes in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the Districtis improving or deteriorating.

IV

The statement of activities - modified cash basis presents information showing how the net position of theDistrict changed during the current fiscal year. Changes in net position are recorded in the statement ofactivities using the modified cash basis of accounting.

The modified cash basis of accounting is described in the notes to basic financial statements.

Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the District that are supportedfrom taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities). Governmental activities includeinstructional, pupil support, other support, transportation and administration.

The government-wide financial statements can be found on pages 1-2 of this report.

Fund Financial Statements

A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have beensegregated for specific activities or objectives. The District, like other state and local governments, uses fundaccounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. Fund financialstatements for the District include governmental and fiduciary funds.

Governmental funds

Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmentalactivities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide statements,the governmental fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources,as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the year. Such information may beuseful in evaluating financing requirements in the near term.

Because the focus of the governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financialstatements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar informationpresented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers maybetter understand the long-term impact of the District's near-term financing decisions. Both thegovernmental fund balance sheet - modified cash basis and the governmental fund statement of revenues,expenditures, and changes in fund balance - modified cash basis provide a reconciliation to facilitate thiscomparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.

The District maintains eight different governmental funds and subfunds. The major funds are the GeneralFund and Debt Services Fund. They are presented separately in the fund financial statements with theremaining nonmajor governmental funds labeled as "Other Governmental Funds." Fund information for thenonmajor funds is presented in the combining and individual fund financial statements and schedules sectionof this report.

The District adopts an annual budget for each of the governmental funds. The governmental funds'budgetary comparisons are reported in the combining and individual fund financial statements and schedulessection of this report.

The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 3-7 of this report.

v

Fiduciary fund

Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside of the District.Fiduciary funds are not reported in the government-wide financial statements because the resources of thosefunds are not available to support the District's own programs. The fiduciary funds are reported using themodified cash basis of accounting.

The District maintains one fiduciary fund. The Student Activity Fund (an agency fund) accounts for assetsheld by the District as an agent for the students and teachers. The fund is custodial in nature and does notinvolve the measurement of results of operations.

The fiduciary fund financial statement can be found on page 8 of this report.

Notes to Basic Financial Statements

The notes to basic financial statements provide additional information that is essential to a full understandingof the data provided in the basic financial statements. The notes can be found on pages 9-38 of this report.

Government-wide Overall Financial Analysis

As noted earlier, net position over time may serve as a useful indicator of a government's financial position.In the case of the District, assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded liabilities by $14,879,926 atthe close of the most recent fiscal year.

The largest portion of the District's net position reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g., land, landimprovements, buildings and equipment), less any related outstanding debt that was used to acquire thoseassets. The District uses these capital assets to provide a variety of services to its students and other membersof the community. Accordingly, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the District'sinvestment in capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources used to repaythis debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidatethese liabilities.

An additional portion of the District's net position (19%) represents resources that are subject to externalrestrictions on how they may be used.

The District's overall net position decreased $1,751,992 from the prior fiscal year. The reasons for thisoverall decrease are discussed in the following section.

Government-wide Activities

Governmental activities decreased the net position of the District by $1,751,992, thereby accounting for theentire decrease in the net position of the District.

Key elements of the decrease in net position for governmental activities are as follows:

• Other support service expenses increased during 2017 by $1,931,707. This increase was primarilydue to an increase in LADSE special education positions being brought back to the District andoutsourced special education costs.

Financial Analysis of the District's Funds

As noted earlier, the District uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements.

The focus of the District's governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, andbalances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the District's financingrequirements. In particular, unassigned fund balances may serve as a useful measure of a government'sresources available for discretionary use as they represent the portion of fund balance which has not yet beenlimited to use for a particular purpose by either an external party, the District itself, or a group or individualthat has been delegated authority to assign resources for use for particular purposes by the District's Board.

As of the end of the current fiscal year, the District's governmental funds reported a combined ending fundbalance of $10,859,281, a decrease of $3,875,805 in comparison with the prior year. The District has anunassigned fund balance deficit of $234,369. The remainder of the fund balance is either restricted forparticular purposes ($10,575,334) or assigned for particular purposes ($518,316).

The General Fund had a fund balance of $2,356,548 at June 30, 2017, a decrease of $1,716,347 from theprior year. The decrease was the result of current year expenditures that were $1,645,694 higher thanrevenues.

The Debt Services Fund, a major fund, had a $2,051,505 decrease in fund balance during the current year asdebt service expenditures exceeded revenues from local sources. A portion of the outstanding capitalappreciation bonds were paid with restricted investments held by the District.

General Fund Budgetary Highlights

The original budget was amended during the year.

The major components of the General Fund budget variance are as follows:

• Property tax revenues were as expected. The District did not experience significant refunds in fiscalyear 2017.

• On behalf revenues and expenditures were significantly more than anticipated. The State of Illinoismade greater employer pension contributions on behalf of the District.

Capital Assets and Debt Administration

Capita/Assets. The District's investment in capital assets for its governmental activities as ofJune 30, 2017amounted to $46,478,583 (net of accumulated depreciation). This investment in capital assets included land,land improvements, buildings and improvements, and equipment.

Additional information on the District's capital assets can be found in the notes to basic financial statementson page 20.

Long-term Liabilities. At June 30, 2017, the District had total long-term liabilities of $42,594,401.

Additional information on the District's long-term liabilities can be found in the notes to basic financialstatements on pages 21-30.

Economic Factors and Next Year's Budget

The Fiscal Year 2018 budget is a balanced budget in which revenues are estimated to exceed expenditures byapproximately $2.5 million. The surplus is attributable to the successful November 8, 2016 referendum thatincreased property tax revenue. The state passed Senate Bill 1947, the Evidence-Based Funding for StudentSuccess Act, which identifies an adequacy target for the District to provide a high quality education. Thisnew formula may generate $95 thousand in new revenue for the District to meet its target. The referendum incombination with cost management efforts will allow the District to begin to build its fund balances for thefuture.

The District continues to prepare a five-year financial forecast to use as a tool to manage its structural deficit.

Net change in fund balances - total governmental funds $ (3,875,805)

Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in thestatement of activities - modified cash basis, the cost of those assets is allocatedover their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense. This is theamount by which depreciation exceeded ($940,635) capital outlay additions($106,532) in the current period. (834,103)

The issuance of long-term debt (e.g., bonds, debt certificates, installment contracts)provides current financial resources to governmental funds, while the repayment ofthe principal of long-term debt uses current financial resources of governmentalfunds. Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net position. Also,governmental funds report the effect of premiums, discounts and similar items whenthe debt is first issued, whereas these amounts are deferred and amortized in thestatement of activities. The net effect of these differences in the treatment of long-term debt and related items is summarized as follows:

LAGRANGE SCHOOL DISTRICT 102NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A. Description of Government-wide Financial Statements

The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement ofactivities) report information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the primary government. All fiduciaryactivities are reported only in the fund financial statements. Governmental activities are generallysupported by taxes, intergovernmental revenues, and other nonexchange transactions.

B. Reporting Entity

LaGrange School District 102 is governed by the Board of Education and provides elementary education,transportation, cafeteria, building maintenance and general administrative services.

These financial statements include the District and its component units, entities for which the District isconsidered to be financially accountable. At June 30, 2017, no entities were considered component units ofthe District. At June 30, 2017, the District was not considered a component unit of any other entity.

C. Basis of Presentation - Government-wide Financial Statements

While separate government-wide and fund financial statements are presented, they are interrelated. Thegovernmental activities financial statements incorporate data from the governmental funds. Separatefinancial statements are provided for governmental funds and fiduciary funds, even though the latter areexcluded from the government-wide financial statements.

As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financialstatements.

D. Basis of Presentation - Fund Financial Statements

The fund financial statements provide information about the District's funds, including its fiduciary fund.Separate statements for each fund category - governmental and fiduciary - are presented. The emphasis offund financial statements is on major governmental funds. The major individual governmental funds arereported as separate columns in the fund financial statements. All remaining governmental funds areaggregated and reported as nonmajor funds.

The District reports the following major governmental funds:

The General Fund is the District's primary operating fund. It is comprised of four subfunds: theEducational Fund, the Operations and Maintenance Fund, the Tort Fund, and the Working CashFund. The General Fund accounts for all financial resources of the District, except those required tobe accounted for in another fund.

The Debt Services Fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources that are restricted,committed, or assigned for the payment of principal and interest on long-term obligations ofgovernmental funds.

9

LAGRANGE SCHOOL DISTRICT 102NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTSYEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2017

The District has the following nonmajor governmental funds:

Special revenue fund type:This fund type is used to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restrictedby law or administrative action to expenditure for specific purposes other than debt service orcapital projects. The District's nonmajor special revenue funds are the Transportation Fund andMunicipal Retirement / Social Security Fund.

Capital projects fund type:This fund type accounts for the receipt and disbursement of monies used for the acquisition,construction or improvement of capital facilities. The District's Capital Projects Fund is anonmajor governmental fund.

Additionally, the District reports the following fiduciary fund type:

The Student Activities Agency Fund accounts for assets held by the District as an agent for thestudents and teachers. This fund is custodial in nature and does not involve the measurement ofresults of operations. The assets of the fund are equal to the liabilities.

During the course of operations the District has activity between funds for various purposes. In fundfinancial statements any residual balances outstanding at year end are reported as due from/to other fundsand advances to/from other funds.

Further, certain activity occurs during the year involving transfers of resources between funds. In fundfinancial statements these amounts are reported at gross amounts as transfers in/out. .

E. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting

Measurement focus is a term used to describe what transactions or events are recorded within the variousfinancial statements. Basis of accounting refers to when and how transactions or events are recorded,regardless of the measurement focus applied.

1. Measurement Focus

In the government-wide statement of net position and statement of activities, governmental activities arepresented using the economic resources measurement focus, within the limitations of the modified cashbasis of accounting. The accounting objectives of this measurement focus are the determination of net(expense) revenue, change in net position, and net financial position. All assets, deferred outflows ofresources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources (whether current or noncurrent or financial ornonfinancial) associated with their activities are generally reported within the limitations of the modifiedcash basis of accounting.

10


Governmental funds utilize a current financial resources measurement focus within the limitations of themodified cash basis of accounting. Only current financial assets and liabilities are generally included ontheir balance sheets. Their operating statements present sources and uses of available spendable financialresources during a given period. These funds use fund balance as their measure of available spendablefinancial resources at the end of the period.

The agency fund is custodial in nature and does not involve the measurement of results of operations;therefore, it does not have a measurement focus.

2. Basis of Accounting

The financial statements are presented on the modified cash basis of accounting, which is a basis ofaccounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) asestablished by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. This basis of accounting involvesmodifications to the cash basis of accounting to report in the statements of net position or balance sheetscash transactions or events that provide a benefit or result in an obligation that covers a period greater thanthe period in which the cash transaction or event occurred. Such reported balances include investments,interfund receivables and payables, capital assets and related depreciation, and short-term and long-termliabilities arising from cash transactions or events.

This modified cash basis of accounting differs from GAAP primarily because certain assets and theirrelated revenues (such as accounts receivable and revenue for billed or provided services not yet collectedand other accrued revenue and receivables) and certain liabilities and their related expenses orexpenditures (such as accounts payable and expenses for goods or services received but not yet paid andother accrued expenses and liabilities) are not recorded in these financial statements. In addition, certainother economic assets and liabilities that do not arise from a cash transaction or event are not reported, andthe measurement of reported assets, other than the restricted investments, and liabilities does not involveadjustment to fair value.

If the District utilized the basis of accounting recognized as generally accepted in the United States ofAmerica, the fund financial statements for governmental funds would use the modified accrual basis ofaccounting. The government-wide and fiduciary fund financial statements would be presented on theaccrual basis of accounting.

F. Assets, Liabilities, Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources, and Net PositionlFund Balance

1. Cash and Investments

Cash and investments of the District are pooled into a common pooled account in order to maximizeinvestment opportunities. Each fund whose monies are deposited into the pooled account has equitytherein, and interest earned on the investment of these monies is allocated based upon relative equity atmonth end. An individual fund's equity in the pooled account is available upon demand and is consideredto be a cash equivalent when preparing these financial statements. Each fund's portion of the pool isdisplayed on its respective balance sheet as "equity in pooled cash and investments." In addition, non-pooled cash equivalents and investments that are separately held are reflected in the respective funds as"cash" and "investments."

11


2. Restricted Investments

Restricted investments are comprised of the remaining proceeds from the Series 2012A and 2013A bondsheld in an escrow trust for the purpose of making future debt service payments on the Series 2001 capitalappreciation bonds. As the escrow trust invests in securities other than risk-free securities, as defined inGASB Statement No.7, an "in-substance" defeasance did not occur. As such, the "legally" defeased debtcontinues to be reported in the government-wide financial statements and the remaining proceeds from theSeries 2012A and 2013A bonds are reported as restricted investments in the government-wide and fundfinancial statements. Restricted investments are reported at fair value.

3. CapitalAssets

The District's modified cash basis of accounting reports capital assets (land, buildings, and equipment)resulting from cash transactions or certain events and reports depreciation, when appropriate. Theaccounting treatment over capital assets depends on whether they are reported in the government-wide orfund financial statements.

Capital assets reported in the government-wide financial statements are defined by the District as assetswith an initial, individual cost of more than $5,000 and an estimated useful life in excess of one year. Asthe District constructs or acquires additional capital assets each period, they are capitalized and reported athistorical cost. The reported value excludes normal maintenance and repairs which are essentially amountsspent in relation to capital assets that do not increase the capacity or efficiency of the item or increase itsestimated useful life. Donated capital assets are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date ofdonation.

Depreciation of all exhaustible capital assets is recorded as an allocated expense in the statement ofactivities, with accumulated depreciation reflected in the statement of net position. Depreciation isprovided over the assets' estimated useful lives using the straight-line method of depreciation. The rangeof estimated useful lives by type of asset is as follows:

Assets Years

Land improvementsBuildingsEquipment

2090

5-20

In the fund financial statements, capital assets acquired for use in governmental fund operations areaccounted for as capital outlay expenditures of the governmental fund upon acquisition.

12


4. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources

In addition to assets, the financial statements will sometimes report a separate section for deferredoutflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred outflows of resources,represents a consumption of net position that applies to a future period and so will not be recognized as anoutflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then. The District has only one type of item that qualifiesfor reporting in this category. Accordingly, the item, unamortized loss on refunding, is reported in thegovernment-wide statement of net position - modified cash basis. An unamortized loss on refunding resultsfrom the difference in the carrying value of refunded debt and its reacquisition price. This amount isdeferred and amortized over the shorter of the life of the refunded or refunding debt.

In addition to liabilities, the financial statements will sometimes report a separate section for deferredinflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources, representsan acquisition of net position that applies to a future period and so will not be recognized as an inflow ofresources (revenues) until that time. The District currently does not have any items that qualify forreporting in this category.

5. Long-term Obligations

In the government-wide financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reportedas liabilities in the statement of net position. Bond premiums and discounts, as well as gains (losses) onrefundings, are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds. Bonds payable are reported net of theapplicable bond premium or discount. Gains (losses) on refundings are reported as deferred inflows(outflows) of resources. Bond issuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceedsreceived, are reported as expenses.

In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognize bond premiums and discounts, as wellas bond issuance costs, during the current period. The face amount of debt issued is reported as otherfinancing sources. Premiums received on debt issuances are reported as other financing sources whilediscounts on debt issuances are reported as other financing uses. Issuance costs, whether or not withheldfrom the actual debt proceeds received, are reported as debt service expenditures.

6. Net Position Flow Assumption

Sometimes the District will fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted (e.g., restricted bondor grant proceeds) and unrestricted resources. In order to calculate the amounts to report as restricted netposition and unrestricted net position in the government-wide financial statements, a flow assumption mustbe made about the order in which the resources are considered to be applied.

It is the District's policy to consider restricted net position to have been depleted before unrestricted netposition is applied.

13


7. Fund Balance Flow Assumptions

Sometimes the District will fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted and unrestrictedresources (the total of committed, assigned, and unassigned fund balance). In order to calculate theamounts to report as restricted, committed, assigned, and unassigned fund balance in the governmentalfund financial statements a flow assumption must be made about the order in which the resources areconsidered to be applied. It is the District's policy to consider restricted fund balance to have been depletedbefore using any of the components of unrestricted fund balance. Further, when the components ofunrestricted fund balance can be used for the same purpose, committed fund balance is depleted first,followed by assigned fund balance. Unassigned fund balance is applied last.

8. Fund Balance Policies

Fund balance of governmental funds is reported in various categories based on the nature of anylimitations requiring the use of resources for specific purposes. The District itself can establish limitationson the use of resources through either a commitment (committed fund balance) or an assignment (assignedfund balance).

The committed fund balance classification includes amounts that can be used only for the specificpurposes determined by a formal action of the District's highest level of decision-making authority. TheBoard of Education is the highest level of decision-making authority for the District that can, by adoptionof a resolution prior to the end of the fiscal year, commit fund balance. Once adopted, the limitationimposed by the resolution remains in place until a similar action is taken (the adoption of anotherresolution) to remove or revise the limitation.

Amounts in the assigned fund balance classification are intended to be used by the District for specificpurposes but do not meet the criteria to be classified as committed. The Board of Education may, byresolution, authorize an individual to assign fund balance. The Board of Education has not adopted such aresolution. The Board of Education may also assign fund balance as it does when appropriating fundbalance to cover a gap between estimated revenue and appropriations in the subsequent year's appropriatedbudget. Unlike commitments, assignments generally only exist temporarily. In other words, an additionalaction does not normally have to be taken for the removal of an assignment. Conversely, as discussedabove, an additional action is essential to either remove or revise a commitment.

G. Revenues

1. Program Revenues

Amounts reported as program revenues include I) charges to individuals or entities that purchase, use, ordirectly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grantsand contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particularfunction or segment. All taxes, including those dedicated for specific purposes, and other internallydedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program revenues.

14


2. Property Taxes

Property taxes are levied as of January 1 on property values assessed on the same date. The Board ofEducation approved the 2016 tax levy on December 8, 2016. The tax levy is divided into two billings: thefirst billing (mailed on or about February 1) is an estimate of the current year's levy based on the prioryear's taxes; the second billing (mailed on or about July 1) reflects adjustments to the current year's actuallevy. The billings are considered past due 30 days after the respective billing date at which time theapplicable property is subject to lien and penalties and interest are assessed. The District receivessignificant distributions of tax receipts approximately one month after the due dates.

H. Estimates

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements. Those estimates andassumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and deferred outflows/inflows of resources;the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities; and the reported revenues and expenses/expenditures.Actual results could differ from those estimates.

I. Comparative Data

Comparative data for the prior year have been presented in the individual fund financial statements andschedules in order to provide an understanding of the changes in the financial position and operations ofthese funds.

II. STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY

A. Budgetary Information

The budget is prepared on the modified cash basis of accounting for all governmental funds, which is anacceptable method as prescribed by the Illinois State Board of Education, and is the same basis that is usedfor financial reporting. The budget appropriations lapse at the end of each fiscal year. The District does notutilize an encumbrance system. The District follows these procedures in establishing the budgetary datareflected in the financial statements.

1. The administration submits to the Board of Education a proposed operating budget for the fiscalyear commencing July 1. The operating budget includes proposed expenditures and the means offinancing them.

2. Public hearings are conducted and the proposed budget 1S available for inspection to obtaintaxpayer comments.

3. Prior to September 30, the budget is legally adopted through passage of a resolution. Prior to thelast Tuesday in December, a tax levy resolution is filed with the County Clerk to obtain taxrevenues.

15


4. The Superintendent is authorized to transfer up to 10% of the total budget between departmentswithin any fund; however, any revisions that alter the total expenditures of any fund must beapproved by the Board of Education. The level of control (level at which expenditures may notexceed budget/appropriations) is the fund.

5. Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the year.

6. The Board of Education may amend the budget (in other ways) by the same procedures required ofits original adoption. The budget was amended during the year ended June 30,2017.

B. Excess of Expenditures over Budget

The following funds had an excess of actual expenditures over budgeted amounts for the year ended June30,2017:

Budget Actual Variance

General subfund:Tort Fund $ 340,159 $ 342,300 $ 2,141

Debt Services Fund 4,492,917 4,775,075 282,158Nonmajor governmental fund:

Transportation Fund 957,556 1,035,480 77,924

The overexpenditures in the Tort Fund and the Transportation Fund were funded by current revenues. Theoverexpenditure in the Debt Services Fund was funded by transfers in and available fund balance.

C. Deficit Fund Balance

The following fund had a deficit fund balance as of June 30, 2017:Nonmajor governmental fund:

Municipal Retirement / Social Security Fund $ (383,136)

The above deficit is expected to be eliminated with transfers in from other funds.

16


III. DETAILED NOTES ON ALL ACTIVITIES AND FUNDS

A. Deposits and Investments

Under the Custody of the Lyons Township School Treasurer

Under the Illinois Compiled Statutes, the Lyons Township School Treasurer is the lawful custodian of allschool funds. The Treasurer is appointed by the Township School Trustees, an independently elected body,to serve the school districts in the township. The Treasurer is the direct recipient of property taxes,corporate personal property replacement taxes, and most state and federal aid and disburses funds uponlawful order of each school district. The Treasurer invests excess funds at his discretion, subject to thelegal restrictions discussed below. For these purposes, the Treasurer is permitted to combine monies ofmore than one fund of a single district and to combine monies of more than one district in the township.Monies combined under these circumstances, as well as investment earnings, are accounted for separatelyfor each fund and district.

Cash and investments, other than student activity and convenience accounts, petty cash and imprest funds,are part of a common pool for all school districts within the township. The Treasurer maintains recordsthat segregate the cash and investment balance by district. Income from investments is distributed monthlybased upon each district's percentage participation in the pool.

All cash for all funds, including cash applicable to the Debt Services Fund and the Illinois MunicipalRetirement / Social Security Fund, is not deemed available for purposes other than those for which thesebalances are intended.

The Treasurer's investment policies are established by the Lyons Township School Trustees as prescribedby the Illinois School Code and the Illinois Compiled Statutes. The Treasurer is authorized to invest inobligations of the U.S. Treasury, backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, certificates ofdeposit issued by commercial banks and savings and loan associations, and commercial paper rated withinthe three highest classifications by at least two standard rating services (subject to certain limitations).

The Treasurer's office operates as a non-rated, external investment pool. The reported amount of theDistrict's investment in the Treasurer's pool is equal to the District's proportionate share of the cost of theinvestments held by the Treasurer's office.

The weighted average maturity of marketable pooled investments held by the Treasurer was 7.67 years atJune 30, 2017. The Treasurer also holds money market type investments, certificates of deposits and otherdeposits with financial institutions.

Because all cash and investments are pooled by a separate legal government agency (the Treasurer),categorization by risk category is not determinable. Further information about whether investments areinsured, collateralized or uncollateralized is available from the Treasurer's financial statements.

As of June 30, 2017, the District's proportionate share of the Treasurer's investment pool was $3,559,648.

17


In the Custody of the District - Deposits

Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of a bank failure, the District's deposits mightnot be recovered. The District does not have a deposit policy for custodial credit risk. As of June 30, 2017,the District's bank balances were covered by federal depository insurance.

In the Custody of the District - Investments

The District had the following investments as of June 30, 2017:

(2) Interest Rate Risk is estimated using weighted average years to maturity.(3) Restricted investments are held in trust for the purpose of making future debt service payments on the

Series 2001 capital appreciation bonds.

Investment Policies

The District's investments are subject to the following risks:

Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss attributed to the magnitude of the District's investmentin a single issuer. The District does not have an investment policy for this risk.

Credit risk is the risk that an issuer or other counterparty to an investment will not fulfill itsobligations. State statutes limit the investments in specific investments based on their rating by oneof the nationally recognized statistical rating organizations. The District's investment policyincorporates the restrictions on investments as outlined in the Illinois Compiled Statutes Section235/2.5(a)(I).

Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of aninvestment. The District's investment policy does not limit the investment maturities as a means ofmanaging its exposure to fair value losses from increasing interest rates.

18


Custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty toa transaction, the District will not be able to recover the value of investment or collateral securitiesthat are in the possession of an outside party. The District's investment policy does not addresscustodial credit risk for investments.

B. Fair Value Measurements

The District's restricted investments are reported at fair value. The District categorizes its fair valuemeasurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. TheDistrict had the following recurring fair value measurements as of June 30,2016:

B. Employee Retirement Systems and Plans

1. Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois

Plan description. The District (employer) participates in the Teachers' Retirement System of the State ofIllinois (TRS). TRS is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan that was created bythe Illinois legislature for the benefit of Illinois public school teachers employed outside the city ofChicago. TRS members include all active nonannuitants who are employed by a TRS-covered employer toprovide services for which teacher licensure is required. The Illinois Pension Code outlines the benefitprovisions ofTRS, and amendments to the plan can be made only by legislative action with the Governor'sapproval. The TRS Board of Trustees is responsible for the System's administration.

TRS issues a publicly available financial report that can be obtained at www. trsil.org; by writing to TRSat 2815 W. Washington, PO Box 19253, Springfield, IL 62794; or by calling (888) 678-3675.

Benefits provided. TRS provides retirement, disability, and death benefits. Tier I members have TRS orreciprocal system service prior to January 1,2011. Tier I members qualify for retirement benefits at age 62with five years of service, at age 60 with 10 years, or age 55 with 20 years. The benefit is determined bythe average of the four highest years of creditable earnings within the last 10 years of creditable serviceand the percentage of average salary to which the member is entitled. Most members retire under a formulathat provides 2.2 percent of final average salary up to a maximum of 75 percent with 34 years of service.Disability and death benefits are also provided.

Tier II members qualify for retirement benefits at age 67 with 10 years of service, or a discounted annuitycan be paid at age 62 with 10 years of service. Creditable earnings for retirement purposes are capped andthe final average salary is based on the highest consecutive eight years of creditable service rather than thelast four. Disability provisions for Tier II are identical to those of Tier I. Death benefits are payable under aformula that is different from Tier I.

Essentially all Tier I retirees receive an annual three percent increase in the current retirement benefitbeginning January 1 following the attainment of age 61 or on January 1 following the member's firstanniversary in retirement, whichever is later. Tier II annual increases will be the lesser of three percent ofthe original benefit or one-half of the rate of inflation beginning January 1 following attainment of age 67or on January 1 following the member's first anniversary in retirement, whichever is later.

Contributions. The state of Illinois maintains the primary responsibility for funding TRS. The IllinoisPension Code, as amended by Public Act 88-0593 and subsequent acts, provides that for years 2010through 2045, the minimum contribution to the System for each fiscal year shall be an amount determinedto be sufficient to bring the total assets of the System up to 90 percent of the total actuarial liabilities of theSystem by the end of fiscal year 2045.

32


Contributions from active members and TRS contributing employers are also required by the IllinoisPension Code. The contribution rates are specified in the pension code. The active member contributionrate for the year ended June 30, 2016 was 9.4 percent of creditable earnings. On July 1, 2016, the ratedropped to 9.0 percent of pay due to the expiration of the Early Retirement Option (ERa). The membercontribution, which may be paid on behalf of employees by the employer, is submitted to TRS by theemployer.

On behalf contributions to TRS. The state of Illinois makes employer pension contributions on behalf ofthe employer. For the year ended June 30, 2017, state of Illinois contributions were based on 38.54percent of creditable earnings not paid from federal funds, and the district recognized revenue andexpenses/expenditures of $7,929,608 in pension contributions that the state of Illinois paid directly toTRS.

2.2 formula contributions. Employers contribute 0.58 percent of total creditable earnings for the 2.2formula change. The contribution rate is specified by statute. Contributions for the year ended June 30,2017 were $116,402.

Federal and special trust fund contributions. When TRS members are paid from federal and special trustfunds administered by the employer, there is a statutory requirement for the employer to pay an employerpension contribution from those funds. Under a policy adopted by the TRS Board of Trustees that has beenin effect since the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, employer contributions for employees paid from federaland special trust funds will be the same as the state contribution rate to TRS. Public Act 98-0674 nowrequires the two rates to be the same.

For the year ended June 30, 2017, the employer pension contribution was 38.54 percent of salaries paidfrom federal and special trust funds. For the year ended June 30,2017, salaries totaling $90,175 were paidfrom federal and special trust funds that required employer contributions of$34,753.

Employer retirement cost contributions. The employer is required to make a one-time contribution to TRSfor members retiring under the Early Retirement ption (ERa). The payments vary depending on themember's age and salary. The rna imum employer ERO contribution under the current program that endedon June 30, 2016 is 146.5 percent and applies when the member is age 55 at retirement. For the year endedJune 30, 2017, the employer paid $0 to TRS for employer ERa contributions for retirements that occurredbefore July 1,2016.

The employer is also required to make a one-time contribution to TRS for members granted salaryincreases over six percent if those salaries are used to calculate a retiree's final average salary. A one-timecontribution is also required for members granted sick leave days in excess of the normal annual allotmentif those days are used as TRS service credit. For the year ended June 30, 2017, the employer paid $605 toTRS for employer contributions due on salary increases in excess of six percent and $0 for sick leave daysgranted in excess of the normal annual allotment.
