2022-003 Child Nutrition Cluster ? Assistance Listing No. 10.553, 10.555, & 10.559 Recommendation: We recommend the District update policies related to school nutrition reporting to ensure they have appropriate reviews that would prevent or detect errors or fraud. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: The School Nutrition Supervisor and Supervisor of Finance approve all expense transactions on an ongoing basis. By the third week of each month, a designated Accounting Assistant runs financial reports used to prepare the monthly school nutrition program claims. The Budget Manager has not approved the claims prior to submission, which has been the practice for all other District programs. Effective July 1, 2022, the accounting assistant schedules a meeting with the School Nutrition Supervisor to review each monthly claim, clarify questions and adjust if needed, prior to submitting a claim to DPI.

Response to 2022-003 Due to COVID-19, the completion of the capital project had been delayed several times beyond the original grant end date. The extension request was submitted before the end date of the grant ? December 31, 2021, however due to the year-end holiday season no response was received in a timely manner. Hence, the organization identified 100% of the grant expenditures and drew down the remaining funds. After receiving clear guidance from the HRSA program manager, some funds were returned as advised and drawn later upon completion of the project. Management will closely monitor cash management requirements specified by each grant. Contact person responsible for corrective action: Eden Ballatan, CFO Anticipated Completion Date: 6/30/2023

The Independent External Audit for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 included finding #2022-004 in which the District was cited as recording expenditures to the incorrect federal program. Allowable expenditures under the ECF program had not been adjusted to the limits set forth on FCC Form 471, which resulted in an overstatement of expenditures under the ECF program and an understatement of expenditures on the COVID-19 American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary Emergency Relief - 3 program. This finding is new to the District as of the 2021-22 Audit and is not a repeat finding. The cause for this finding is the need to reclassify expenditures, amounting to $65,260. The District has recorded these expenditures, of "local share" in the Emergency Connectivity Fund (ECF) budget line. These expenditures should have been expended from the COVID-19 American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary Emergency Relief - 3 budget line, as that is where the "local share" was expended. During the 2021-22 Fiscal Year, the School District worked with eRate Central to complete an application totaling $746,356, all of which were approved and committed by the FCC. While the District received this substantial commitment of funds to purchase earmarked technology equipment, the District was also responsible for a local share of some, but not all, devices. These local funds were being paid out of the ARP ESSER 3 Grant, out of a section earmarked for technology purchases. To mitigate findings, such as #2022-004 in the subsequent years, the District will record expenditures properly, using the appropriate budget codes. The District will review its expenditure budget lines and will monitor its usage of Federal Funds more closely. Anticipated Completion Date for Finding 2022-004: October 21, 2022 Person{s) Responsible for Corrective Action: Ryan Palmer & Marianne Romito

2022-067 Oregon Department of Education Ensure accuracy of federal reporting Federal Awarding Agency: U.S. Department of Education Assistance Listing Number and Name: 84.425C Education Stabilization Fund (COVID-19) Federal Award Numbers and Years: S425C200048; 2020 (COVID-19) Compliance Requirement: Reporting Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency; Noncompliance Prior Year Finding: N/A Questioned Costs: N/A Criteria: 2 CFR 200.302(b); 2 CFR 200.303(a) Federal regulations require that federal reports include all activity of the reporting period and be supported by applicable accounting records. Federal regulations also require that the department file a separate report for the Governor?s Emergency Education Relief (GEER) expenditures for the period ending June 30, 2021. The department reported GEER information for the local education areas (LEAs) related to the comprehensive distance learning grant program. LEAs submit reimbursement to the department and this information is tracked in an excel database. The database includes various information, including funding types, dates, and amounts. During FY 2022, the department completed the reports using the database, but incorrectly filtered the data so some expenditures were not captured. This resulted in an underreporting of GEER expenditures by $13.9 million. We recommend department management ensure that accurate expenditure data is submitted to the federal government for federal reporting. MANAGEMENT RESPONSE: We agree with this recommendation. ODE has noted the mistake in data filtering and will remedy to ensure accurate expenditure reporting this year. Annual reporting for GEER will enable this error to be corrected moving forward.

Audit Finding: The Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) is prepared using source information other than the financial reports generated by the accounting system. As a result, the Organization's internally prepared SEFA did not agree to the Organization's financial records. The SEFA was prepared and reconciled to the amount of cash drawdowns for the year rather than total expenditures incurred for the year. This could result in a material misstatement in the SEFA. Recommendation: The SEFA should be prepared and reconciled to the general ledger by an employee knowledgeable of the grant activity for the year. Someone other than the preparer should review the SEFA for accuracy and completeness to identify any errors and maintain proper internal controls over the preparation of the SEFA. Corrective Action Taken: Management has hired an individual who specializes in federal programs who will be responsible for reviewing the SEFA in the future. The CFO will also have the Senior Accountant review the SEFA for correctness prior to submission! Expected Completion Date: June 30, 2023
