Notes to SEFA

Title: Basis of Presentation Accounting Policies: Expenditures reported in the schedule are reported on the modified accrual basis of accounting. When applicable, such expenditures are recognized following the cost principles contained in the Uniform Guidance, wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursement. No federal financial assistance has been provided to a subrecipient. De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: The District has not elected to use the ten percent de minimis cost rate. The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (the schedule) includes the federal award activity of the Westminster School District (the District) under programs of the federal government for the year ended June 30, 2023. The information is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Because the schedule presents only a selected portion of the operations of the District, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net position or fund balance of the District.

Finding Details

The following finding represents a significant deficiency and instance of noncompliance that is required to be reported by the Uniform Guidance. The finding has been coded as follows: Five Digit Code AB 3627 Finding Type 50000 Federal Compliance 2023‐003 50000 – Reporting (Significant Deficiency, Noncompliance) Federal Program Affected Program Names: COVID‐19: Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Funds Assistance Listing Number: 84.425D & 84.425U Pass‐Through Entity: California Department of Education (CDE) Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Education Criteria or Specific Requirements Local education agencies must comply with all reporting requirements that the Department of Education may reasonably require. Section 15011 of Division B of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act requires that a grantee submit quarterly and annual reports. ESSER Funds awarded under the American Rescue Plan (ARP) Act of 2021 are subject to the same quarterly and annual reporting requirements. Condition The District reported budgeted expenditures for the COVID‐19: Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief III (ESSER III) Fund program and the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief III (ESSER III) Fund: Learning Loss program instead of actual expenditures to the California Department of Education for these programs. In addition, the District was unable to provide supporting documents that agreed to the full‐time equivalent (FTE) positions reported to the California Department of Education. Questioned Costs There were no questioned costs associated with the identified condition. Context The condition was identified through inquiry with District personnel and through the review of documentation used to prepare the reports. Effect The District has overreported expenditures for these programs and, as such, is not in compliance with the reporting requirements for the program. In addition, the District is not in compliance with maintaining supporting documents pertinent to a Federal award. Cause The identified condition appears to have materialized due to insufficient procedures related to the review process and retention of financial records. Repeat Finding No. Recommendation The District should ensure that all federal expenditures are reported on their quarterly or annual reports based on actual general ledger expenditures for the time period being reported on. In addition, the District should ensure that all federal reports are supported by supporting documentation. These records should be maintained for a period of three years from the date of submission of the reports to the awarding agency or pass‐through entity.
