INTRODUCTION

The Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy
(Academy) was established in 1985 as a result of
action by the State Legislature (105 ILCS 305).
The internationally recognized Academy develops
creative, ethical leaders in science,
technology, engineering and mathematics.  As a
teaching and learning laboratory created by the
State of Illinois, the Academy enrolls
academically talented Illinois students (grades
10-12) in its advanced, residential college
preparatory program, and it serves thousands of
educators and students in Illinois and beyond
through innovative instructional programs that
foster imagination and inquiry.  The Academy
also advances education through research,
groundbreaking ventures and strategic
partnerships.

AUDITORS’ OPINION

We conducted a compliance examination of the
Academy as required by the Illinois State
Auditing Act.  We have not audited any financial
statements of the Academy for the purpose of
expressing an opinion because the Academy does
not, nor is it required to, prepare financial
statements.
