When is the next single audit due?
If DETROIT PUBLIC SCHOOLS COMMUNITY DISTRICT is again required to have a single audit for the fiscal year ending Jun 30, 2026, the reporting package is due to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse by Mar 30, 2027 at the latest.

How we computed this
Every row comes from the Federal Audit Clearinghouse record named beside it, one report per audit year, with a resubmission superseding the filing it replaces. The auditor is the one named on that filing — it is not a statement about who audits DETROIT PUBLIC SCHOOLS COMMUNITY DISTRICT now. Form 990 figures come from the IRS e-filed return named by its object id. This page exists because the organization filed at least two single audits, or one with a finding.
