Explanation and Reasons for Disagreement: In a sample of 15 students, only 3 did not have the requested supporting documentation for removal from the Cohort. As discussed with the auditors, registrars are required to remove students who are no longer in attendance at our schools within two weeks. Students without 50% attendance cannot be included in ME counts and therefore may not remain in the Cohort. Registrars make multiple attempts to obtain the reason documentation from parents when students are no longer in attendance. However, the district does not have the authority to compel parents to provide the requested documentation. INDIANA STATE

Finding 2025-007: Reporting Material Weakness/Noncompliance Special Tests and Provisions Management agrees with this finding. The required owner certified annual financial report for the Section 202 Capital Advance Program was not submitted to HUD within 90 days of fiscal year end because year end financial records were not completed in time. To prevent this from happening again, management will establish a simple year end reporting calendar, assign responsibility to a designated staff member to track HUD deadlines, and work more closely with the fee accountant to ensure financial information is completed earlier and ready for timely submission.

The District acknowledges the finding regarding inaccuracies in meal counts reported for the Child Nutrition Program reimbursement claims. To address this issue, the District will strengthen internal controls over the meal count reporting and claim preparation process. The food service department will ensure that daily meal count documentation is properly maintained and reconciled to the monthly claim totals prior to submission. In addition, the Director of Business Operations will implement a formal management review process prior to submission of each monthly claim for reimbursement to the Arizona Department of Education. This review will include verification that reported meal counts agree to supporting documentation and that all reconciliations have been completed and documented. Any discrepancies identified during the review will be investigated and corrected before the claim is submitted. These procedures will provide additional oversight and help ensure the District maintains compliance with federal regulations and the reporting requirements of the Child Nutrition Program. The Director of Business Operations is responsible for implementing and monitoring this correction action, which will be completed at the end of the next fiscal year.

Finding 2025-003 Duplicate expenditures charged to same grant Recommendation: We recommend the District establish and maintain proper review procedures for expenditures charged to grants prior to submission for reimbursement. Management’s View: The District will strengthen internal controls over payroll expenditures charged to federal grants by implementing a standard operating procedure that will be conducted by the Payroll Specialist of verifying payroll distribution reports, funding codes, and supporting documentation prior to submission for payment. Before each payroll is finalized, the payroll specialist will run a payroll report that will be generated and sorted by employee to verify that no duplicate charges have been applied to the same grant within the same payroll period. This review will ensure that all costs charged to federal grants during the pay period are accurate, allowable, properly coded, and not duplicated. No payroll adjustments will be keyed until timesheets have been verified against previously submitted timesheets and that they are reviewed to confirm that prior entries have not already been charged to the same grant. Additionally, a secondary review by the accountant will be conducted prior to finalizing grant-related payrolls. Effective March 1, 2026, the Payroll Accountant and Chief Financial Officer will review grant-related payroll transactions to ensure accuracy, proper funding allocation, and compliance with applicable federal requirements.

After years of turnover in key management positions steps have been taken to address staffing challenges and these positions have been successfully staffed with high-quality individuals who bring extensive knowledge and expertise to their roles. These positions include a new Chief Executive Officer, Director of Operations, Chief Financial Officer, and Director of Human Resources. To address challenges in accounting and finance Heading Home had contracted with a local CPA firm specializing in nonprofit accounting and financial reporting to assist the CFO with daily accounting tasks, the monthly close, financial reporting to management and the board of directors, and to facilitate and ensure audits are completed timely each year. The new management group is committed to maintaining a skilled and competent team in key financial roles. Due to the backlog of billings at the opening of FY24, the quarterly reports for the first quarter were submitted late. With the new staff and assistance, these billings and quarterly reports were brought current as quickly as possible. They are now current and being submitted in a timely manner.

U.S. Department of Education 2025-005: Special Tests and Provisions - NSLDS Enrollment Reporting Student Financial Aid Cluster -Assistance Listing No. 84.063, 84.268 Condition: Enrollment status changes were either not reported to NSLDS within 60 days or did not match the College's records for a portion of the sampled students. Recommendation: The institution should evaluate their procedures and policies related to reporting status changes and effective dates to NSLDS and enhance as deemed necessary to ensure that accurate information is reported to NSLDS. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding : There is no disagreement with the audit finding. The Institution acknowledges that while reporting was completed within a timely manner by HCC, NSC did not update within the time allotted to be compliant. HCC remains committed to continuous improvement and compliance. Action taken in response to finding: As noted in the prior year's response, the College committed to full implementation of corrective actions by June 30, 2026, aligned with the conclusion of the 2025-2026 academic year. The institution is currently and actively working on the corrective action plan previously submitted. Actions underway or in progress include: Formal clarification of interdepartmental roles and responsibilities, establishing the Records, Registration and Veteran's Affairs (RRVA) as the primary enrollment reporting authority, with defined review and compliance support from Financial Aid Services. Enhanced reconciliation and quality control procedures, including routine cross-checks between RRVA and Financial Aid Services records prior to each enrollment reporting submission. Standardized review protocols for program-level enrollment changes, including graduates, withdrawals, and subsequent reenrollments in different academic programs. Ongoing monitoring and documentation of NSC errors and warning reports, with timely resolution and escalation when discrepancies appear to originate outside of the College's student information systems. Targeted training for RRVA and Financial Aid staff on enrollment reporting regulations, NSLDS requirements, and audit-risk mitigation. The College believes these actions, coupled with existing reporting practices, sufficiently address the concerns raised and will further strengthen enrollment reporting accuracy and documentation. Full implementation of the corrective action plan remains on schedule for completion by June 30, 2026, as originally committed.
