The following is the Management's Response to Auditor's Findings, Summary Schedule of Prior Audit Findings and Corrective Action Plan. This document was prepared by management of the University of Oklahoma. 2024-001 Student Financial Assistance Cluster, ALN 84.063 Federal Pell Grant Program and ALN 84.268 Federal Direct Student Loans, Department of Education, Award Year 2024 Criteria or Specific Requirement - Cash Management, 34 CFR 668.162(b)(3) Finding Summary: For institutions on the Advance Payment Method, Title IV funds not disbursed to recipients by the end of the third business day are considered excess cash. The Department of Education (ED) allows an institution to retain, for up to seven days, excess cash that does not exceed one percent of the total amount of funds drawn by the institution in the prior year. The institution must return to ED any excess cash over the tolerable amount (one percent) and any amount remaining after the tolerance period (seven days). From February 20, 2024 to April 9, 2024, total cash drawdowns for student financial aid consistently exceeded aid disbursements to recipients (expenditures) by an amount less than one percent of prior year drawdowns. The excess cash during this period was not returned to ED within seven days. Explanation of Agreement/Disagreement: Management concurs with the finding and has implemented additional controls within the drawdown process that includes a secondary review and approval of the amount and timing of each drawdown. Officials Responsible for Ensuring Corrective Action: Karen Smith, Assistant Vice President for Administration and Finance and Controller Planned Completion for Corrective Action: Excess cash was no longer on hand as of June 30, 2024. Corrective internal controls have been implemented as of October 1, 2024 to prevent further instances of noncompliance. Plan to Monitor Completion of Corrective Action: Management has implemented controls within the drawdown process that includes a secondary review and approval of the amount and timing of each drawdown. This will ensure that limits are not exceeded and, if there are instances that require a return of funds, provide oversight to ensure the timely return of those funds.

Habitat for Humanity of the Charlotte Region (HCR) verifies suspension and debarment status through SAM.gov. This was an isolated incident. Of the 19 items reviewed, only one verification was not completed. This specific contractor self-certified that they were not suspended or debarred from working on government contracts before the contract was awarded. The ARPA contract that governs this grant allows contractor self-certification to meet compliance requirements. The validation was not done prior to grant award, but it was subsequently validated on SAM.gov that the contractor is not debarred or suspended. We are updating our process documentation to ensure that verification of self-certification is completed prior to contract award.

Action taken in response to finding: The employee responsible for eligibility processing and verification is new to the process. The employee attended all of the trainings provided by CDE prior to conducting verification. The employee misinterpreted “net wages” vs “gross wages” on the paystub, which led to this discrepancy. The household had listed net wages on their application this year and prior years. The student’s status was corrected and backdated to the verification response date. April and May 2024 claims are not affected by overpayment due to the student’s status having been updated before claims were sent to the state for payment. USDA disregards overpayment of reimbursement if the amount does not exceed $600 annually (Section 119c). Since the amount is not over $600, CDE is not required to collect the discrepancy. The District will move into 100% Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) for SY 2024-2025, and continuing for up to 5 consecutive years following enrollment into the provisional program. CEP does not require income application submittal, thus does not host an annual verification certification because data is received solely through Direct Certification reports provided by CDE monthly. Staff responsible for eligibility determination will continue to take the online trainings from CDE and our Nutrition Software annually as required.

The Elmira City School District has been cited for excessive net cash resources since the onset of the pandemic in 2021 and correlated increased aid reimbursements for the school feeding programs. The most notable increase to revenues for the 2023-2024 fiscal year was interest income. The districts interest revenues were 95% greater than the 2022-2023 school year. Overall revenues within the School Lunch fund only increased 4.69% over the 2022-2023 school year, while expenditures increased at 10.64%. As part of our 2022-2023 corrective action plan, a new contract was entered within our labor union for cafeteria workers. Those efforts resulted in a 37.48% expenditure increase in 2023-24 to salaries and benefits over the 2022-23 school year. The district also can demonstrate that we closed the gap between revenues and expenses by roughly 5% over the prior fiscal year. This is the result of increased spending on equipment purchases, food purchases and wages as so outlined in prior corrective action plans. Plans for the 2024-25 fiscal year include a projected budget that equates to over 22% spending over the 2023-24 expenditures. Those increases are mainly in our equipment and salary budgets. The district has plans to put out a new capital project to vote in December of 2024. While many building and facility upgrades are included, the district plans to utilize the school lunch fund for any equipment purchases related to our cafeterias within our facilities as so allowed. Our School Food Service Director, in conjunction with our School Lunch Manager will assist in the continued upgrades to school serving lines, and new initiatives within our serving programs in response to population changes and needs. They will also continue our equipment replacement cycle throughout our buildings to ensure outdated equipment is replaced timely. The School Business Official will work in conjunction with the Food Service Director and Manager to manage fund balance and expenditures throughout the year. In prior years fund balance has been appropriated to afford increased food and equipment expenses. To combat the net cash resources, we will first look to move funds within the existing budget to afford those increased expenses, oppose to moving monies from fund balance. Our plans, as so outlined above, are targeting a completion date of this finding in June 2025. Contact Information: Lindsey Tice School Business Official Elmira City School District 430 W. Washington Ave. Elmira, NY 14901 607-735-3054 Expected Correction Date: June 30, 2025
