WOW, it's been my experience that most of our staff turn in receipts all at once and then get a check for their classroom allotment (sp). It seems really odd to me that she is writing so many checks for a $50 limit. I would definitely be considering a new policy.
Does anyone have a policy regarding a minimum amount that any check will be cut for teacher classroom accounts? Our new Treasurer found out that the current Treasurer writes an average of 20 checks for a $50 classroom account. I think it is a waste of effort to cut a check for less than $10. ( Our account is at a credit union and not sure about fees) Also the current Treasurer said it was taking up too much of her time to make the bank deposits and gives out the account number to anyone needing to deposit money from events.
I'm the new pres and the new treasurer feels uneasy about how loose things have been. I would like to come up with a basic policy to hand out to staff and chairpersons regarding reimbursements and turning in money. I have already downloaded Critter's Tres forms, but was wondering if anyone had any such policies in place that I could borrow?
