Negative amounts shown on the Schedule represent adjustments or credits made in the normal course of business to amounts reported as expenditures in prior years. Pass-through entity identifying numbers are presented where available. The District has not elected to use the 10-percent de Minimis indirect cost rate as allowed under the Uniform Guidance.

Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies - AL #84.010, Year Ended June 30, 2022 Education Stabilization Fund - AL #84.425, Year Ended June 30, 2022 U.S. Department of Education Pass-Through Entity: Pennsylvania Department of Education Finding 2022-001 ? Cash Management and Reporting Criteria: The Pennsylvania Department of Revenue requires Reconciliation of Cash on Hand Quarterly Reports for any program for which they are receiving monthly payments. These quarterly reports are due the 10th working days of January, April, July, and October. The Pennsylvania Department of Education requires final expenditure reports to be filed documenting the financial transactions of each grant. The final reports are due within 30 days after funds are expended but no later than 30 days after the ending date of the project. Districts are required to have appropriate controls over the accuracy of preparation and timely filing of final expenditure reports. Condition: The District incorrectly filed its June 2021 quarterly report which in turn resulted in PDE halting payments and placing grant #013-210254 in dormant status. The District did not file any further quarterly returns in a timely manner within the 10-day requirement or the final expenditure report in a timely manner within the 30-day requirement. The District did not file the final expenditure report for grant #013-220254 in a timely manner within the 30-day requirement. The District did not file the final expenditure report for grant #200-200254 in a timely manner within the 30-day requirement. The District did not file the quarterly reports for grant #223-210254 and #225-210254 in a timely manner within the 10-day requirement.Cause and Effect: The District's Business office did not file the quarterly cash on hand and the final expenditure report timely. By not filing the required reports timely, the District is potentially risking a withholding of federal funds by the PDE until the reports are properly filed. Identification of Repeat Finding: No Questioned Costs: None Recommendation: Procedures should be established to ensure that the District files all quarterly cash on hand within 10 days of quarter ending and final expenditure reports within 30 days after the funds are expended, but no later than 30 days after the ending date of the project. Views of Responsible Officials: The District will review and establish procedures to ensure that all required quarterly cash on hand and final expenditure reports are properly completed within the required time periods. See Corrective Action Plan for further detail.
