Panthers Roll Over Patriots, 40 – 6

October 1, 2015 By eastwickpress

If he nicked himself, he bled Panther blue. Friend and fellow 1980 graduate Nancy Fabiano spoke about her friend and balloons were set free in Brian’s memory. Brian passed away recently from natural causes. He was 54.

Then the game began. What a difference a week makes. [Read more…] about Panthers Roll Over Patriots, 40 – 6

Independent Audit Of HFCS Finances Gets Highest Rating

 by Deb Alter

The first order of business at the September 17 HFCSD Board meeting was the Annual Independent Auditor’s Report.

The report was excellent, giving the District an “Unmodified Opinion,” which is the highest rating possible and means that the District is in complete compliance in all areas of the audit with no deficiencies. Board Member John Helft asked Walther if it was unusual for a district to get a totally clean audit, and Walther replied that it is, and that HFCS is “head and shoulders above with the extra-curricular accounting.” [Read more…] about HFCS School Board Action
