Financial Transparency

Jeffco Public School is committed to providing a clear view of how tax dollars are spent and how we operate. While we have provided financial information online for years, consolidating it on this Web page is the first step toward even greater financial transparency.

We invite you to use the Payment Review Searchable Database linked below to review district expenditures, and review the reports listed below to see our financial performance.

As you review this information, we feel it is important to remember that Jeffco is the largest school district in Colorado, with more than 14,000 full and part-time employees. The district's total appropriated budget for fiscal year 2012 is $932,285,100.
