Notes to SEFA

Matching costs (the District's share of certain program costs) are not included in the reported expenditures. The basis of accounting varies by federal program consistent with the underlying regulations pertaining to each program. The amounts reported as federal expenditures were obtained from the federal financial reports for the applicable program and periods. The amounts reported in these reports are prepared from records maintained for each program, which are reconciled with the District's financial reporting system.
No insurance is carried specifically to cover equipment purchased with federal funds. Any equipment purchased with federal funds has only a nominal value and is covered by the District's casualty insurance policies.
Non-monetary assistance is reported in the schedule at the fair market value of the commodities received and disbursed. Such assistance has been apportioned to the lunch and breakfast program and total $25,386
There were no awards passed through to subrecipients during the year.
The federal expenditures presented in the Schedule reconcile to the State and Federal revenue reported in the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balance as follows: Federal Expenditures as reported in the Schedule $952,546 Reconciling Items: Add Medicaid 44,411 Federal Aid and Surplus Food as reported in the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balance $997,357

Finding Details

Condition: District did not submit the required ARP ESSER FS-10F Final Expenditure Report by the required deadline. The reporting filing deadline was extended to 10/15/2024, the District submitted the report on 11/25/2024. Criteria: Under the OMB Compliance Supplement (Education Stabilization Fund – 84.425), recipients must submit required ARP ESSER financial reports accurately and within deadlines established by the State Education Agency (SEA). Federal regulation (2 CFR §200.302) requires recipients to maintain effective internal controls and ensure that all required federal reports are submitted timely, complete, and accurate. Cause: The late submission resulted from insufficient internal controls to monitor required federal reporting deadlines. In particular, the District did not maintain a centralized compliance calendar to track and manage these obligations. Effect: Failure to submit the ARP ESSER reports timely puts the District at risk of noncompliance with federal requirements, may impair the U.S. Department of Education’s and the SEA’s ability to monitor program performance and expenditures, and may affect future funding decisions. Questioned Costs: None. This finding relates to reporting timeliness only and does not involve unallowable costs. Perspective: This issue is considered a systemic noncompliance for the fiscal year ended 2025, based on testing of the one mandatory FS-10F Final Expenditure Report required for 84.425U. Repeat: This is not a repeat finding. Recommendation: We recommend that the District implement a formal federal reporting compliance calendar that includes ARP ESSER deadlines as well as develop written procedures requiring periodic review of upcoming deadlines. Auditee’s Response: The District agrees with the finding. See attached corrective action plan.
Condition: The District did not prepare a complete Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards that could be fully verified and reconciled to the trial balance. Criteria: The Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (“SEFA”) is required under federal regulations to be prepared by the Auditee when spending $750,000 or more in federal funds. Questioned Costs: There are no questioned costs. Cause: The District did not have sufficient controls over the tracking of federal expenditures and reconciled to the general ledger. Effect: The SEFA may include expenditures that are not eligible for reporting and may omit expenditures that should be reported. Recommendation: In order to prevent future occurrences of this deficiency, we recommend that management develop a method to track federal grant funds and the use of those funds and reconcile both to the general ledger. Perspective: This is a systemic issue in that controls over the requirement have not been developed to ensure the reported information is accurate. Repeat: This is not a repeat finding. Auditee’s Response: The District agrees with the finding. See attached corrective action plan.
