Arizona State law states that County School Superintendents (CSS) will handle the fiscal activities of districts (Title 15.304) including federal grant funds, unless the district has been approved for fiscal independence (R7-2-902). There are no additional federal appropriations to cover the CSS responsibilities of handling districts’ federal projects.
