Title: Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies
AL Number: 84.010
Criteria
The District must document employee time and effort spent in the Title I program, if under
100% time spent. Furthermore, a system of internal controls would have an entity file all
approved wags in the employee personal file.
Condition
District was missing documentation to support time and effort of faculty members who had
wages less than 100% being charged to the Title I program. Also, we noted during testing
that 7 employees of the 13 hourly employees tested had wages charged higher than the
what the board approved and 1 employee of the 13 hourly employees tested did not have a
Letter of Assurance on file. Wages not approved in our testing totaled $1,750.
Questioned Costs
None
Context
The District had recorded partial or entire salaries of 132 employees to the program. Of this
listing of employees, we tested 14.
Effect
Expenditures improperly or inaccurately being charged to the program.
Cause
Management oversight.
Recommendation
We recommend the District require all faculty in the Title I program complete time and effort
reports. We also recommend that the District has the board approve all employee wages
and file them in each employee personal file.

Title: Education Stabilization Fund
AL Number: 84.425
Criteria
A system of good internal controls would have an entity to file all approved wages in the
employee personal file and approve all transactions.
Condition
Supporting documentation for approved staff wages was missing for 11 employees out of
the 40 transactions tested. We also noted 1 non-payroll transaction that did not have the
proper approval.
Questioned Costs
Undeterminable
Context
In a population over 250, 40 transactions were selected for testing. Of the 40 transactions
selected, 26 transactions were non-payroll and 14 transactions were payroll. Out of the 26
non-payroll transactions, 1 did not have the proper approval. Also, out of 14 payroll
transactions, 11 were missing documentation to support approval of the wage rate.
.
Effect
Employees may not be compensated the correct amount. There is also an increased risk of
unallowable non-payroll transactions being charged to the program.
Cause
Management oversight.
Recommendation
We recommend the District put a copy of the approved wages in each personal file so they
have a record of what each employee will be paid. Also, the district should put procedures in
place to ensure all transactions are properly approved.
Repeat Finding
This is a repeat finding of 2021-007.

Title: Child Nutrition Cluster
AL Number: 10.553/10.555/10.559
Criteria
Entities are only allowed to be reimbursed for the first meal served to students. Furthermore,
a system of strong internal controls requires entities to ensure reports being submitted for
reimbursement agree with supporting documentation.
Condition
The District was not able to provide proper supporting documentation and reported
inaccurate meal counts for reimbursement reporting. Supporting documentation missing
combined with inaccurate meal counts total $21,191.
Questioned Costs
Projected questioned costs $46,053.
Context
We tested 4 months of monthly reimbursement reports at the District’s 2 food sites. The
District could not provide the required supporting documentation used to complete the
reimbursement report for the breakfasts served in January and March 2022 at the
elementary food site. This resulted in no support for the reimbursement of 6,143 breakfasts
served. We also noted variances at the elementary site with lunches being under reported
by 10 in November, 3 in December, 33 in January, and 26 in March. We noted the high
school food site over reported 5 lunches in January and under reported 147 breakfasts in
March.
.
Effect
Inaccurate reimbursements for meals provided resulting in inaccurate revenues received.
Cause
Management oversight.
Recommendation
We recommend the District put policies and procedures in place to ensure all reimbursement
reports are reviewed and approved before being submitted.
