FINANCIAL STATEMENT FINDING Finding No. 2022-002: Indirect Costs ? Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Recommendation5 We recommend that ZERO TO THREE enhance its internal control policies to ensure indirect costs are calculated based on the most recent indirect cost rate agreement. Indirect costs should be billed at the lower of the negotiated rates or the actual charges. Action Taken ZERO TO THREE has recently undergone major technological upgrades involving multiple accounting systems. We received the NICRA letter with our new indirect cost rate eight months into the 2022 fiscal year. The late receipt of this letter, combined with challenges of our then antiquated accounting software, made it very difficult to retroactively apply the NICRA rate changes with consistent accuracy. Our new, robust accounting system, implemented October 1, 2022, is designed to easily handle these types of accounting changes going forward. Management is adjusting the cost reimbursements on the federal agreements to reflect the audit adjustment. Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action Pia C. Valdivia, Chief Financial and Administrative Officer Expected Completion Date: March 31, 2023 FEDERAL AWARD FINDING Finding No. 2022-003: Indirect Costs ? Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Over Compliance ? Assistance Listing No. 93.600 Finding 2022-002 is also a finding with respect to the major federal program. See response above.

To Whom It May Concern: This letter is in response to the audit finding identified in the annual district financial report for fiscal year ending June 30, 2022 issued by Leo Riley & Co. This letter addresses the compliance findings 2022-001, 2022-002 & 2021-001. Weston County School District #7 acknowledges that, due to the small office staff, it makes it impractical for the District to achieve full separation of the accounting functions in the business office. The District has mitigated the risks associated with this limitation through the use of various controls and segregating of functions to the extent possible. This has been accomplished by placing various security levels into the payroll and cash disbursements process. The governing board is also involved in the approval processess as the final authority over payment approval. The District utilizes the accounting manual as provided by the Wyoming Department of Education. The business office staff, district administrative staff, and the school board are fully aware of the situation and are on heightened awareness in performing their duties to further mitigate risks.

Identifying Number: 2022-001 Finding: For the Medical Center?s Period 2 reporting in the HRSA PRF reporting portal, the Medical Center inaccurately reported lost revenues, resulting in an overstatement of lost revenues. Quarterly revenues reported in the PRF reporting portal were misstated for several quarters, resulting in a total overstatement of actual 2019 revenues of $5,197,094, a total overstatement of actual 2020 revenues of $3,996,899, and a total understatement of 2021 actual revenues of $1,915,433. The total net impact of these misstatements to the lost revenue calculation resulted in an understatement of lost revenues reported of $1,903,535. The Medical Center also reported PRF expenses in Period 2 in an amount equal to Period 2 PRF funding received. Therefore, the Medical Center did not report actual revenue data for the third or fourth quarters of 2021. The portal included $100,237,417 of third and fourth quarter 2019 actual revenues in the calculated lost revenue for 2021. While reporting of lost revenue was inaccurate, there were no questioned costs. Corrective Actions Taken or Planned: The Medical Center reported lost revenue using Option 1, comparing actual revenues for 2020 and 2021 to actual revenues for 2019. The Medical Center had errors in their formulas calculating actual revenue for the first quarter of 2019, second quarter of 2019, third quarter of 2019, and the second quarter of 2020. Additionally, the Medical Center used preliminary rather than final, audited actual revenue amounts for the second quarter of 2021. Due to the fact that Period 2 PRF expenses were equal to Period 2 PRF distributions received and lost revenue was not needed to qualify for the Period 2 PRF distributions, the Medical Center did not submit actual revenue data for the third nor fourth quarter of 2021 as the portal did not allow data entry beyond what was necessary to cover the Period 2 PRF distributions. As a result, the portal calculated a lost revenue amount for those quarters equal to actual revenues for the third quarter of 2019 and the fourth quarter of 2019. Management had previously added an additional layer of reporting review prior to submission, which includes the Chief Financial Officer, the Controller and the staff member responsible for submitting the information, which was implemented on March 24, 2022. However, this control did not detect previous formula errors. During the Period 4 reporting completed on March 28, 2023, the Controller and staff member corrected the prior formula errors and conducted a dual entry review as the information was reported into the portal. All errors, current and prior, have been corrected. Going forward, the Medical Center will implement checks to ensure that any information reported agrees to audited financial information. Anticipated completion date: March 28, 2023 Name of contact person responsible for corrective action: Gary Botine ? Vice President and Chief Financial Officer

Finding #2022-001 - Segregation of Duties (Prior Year Finding #2021-001) Condition: The available office staff precludes a proper segregation of duties in the control areas reviewed. Effect: Because of the lack of segregation of duties, errors or irregularities could occur and not be detected on a timely basis. Cause: Controls Over Accounts Payable/Disbursements 1. Person processing accounts payable is not always separate from those who print the checks. Controls Over Payroll 1. Person preparing the payroll is not independent of other personnel duties such as custody of the checks and reconciling the bank statements. Criteria: Internal controls should be in place that provide adequate segregation of duties. Recommendation: Procedures should be implemented segregating duties among different employees. Management should continue to maintain a working knowledge of matters relating to the district?s operations. Response: We agree with this finding but due to the size of our District and financial constraints we do not believe it is cost effective to increase the office staff in an attempt to bring about a more effective segregation of duties. The Principal at the High School or Elementary/Middle School approves monthly accounts payable checks and the Department Head or Principal approves payroll timesheets prior to processing payroll. The Principals and Department Heads will continue to monitor transactions of the District. Contact Person: Cale Jackson Anticipated Completion: Not Applicable

FINDING 2022-003 (Auditor Assigned Reference Number) Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Monica Kegerreis, Assistant Superintendent Contact Phone Number: 574-831-2188 Views of Responsible Official: We concur with the finding Description of Corrective Action Plan: The ESSER reports requested by IDOE will follow the same procedures of all FER reports. The ?data collection? for the ESSER grants was not identified as a financial report, and thus did not follow these processes. Now that we know this is a financial report, the steps below will be followed. The grant was initially not set up correctly and expenses were expended to and then transferred to the correct accounts once the grants were set up correctly. These changes were in flux when the report was requested, so what was reported at the time of the report is no longer what is reflected in grants? ledgers. The corrective action will require that the program director gathers the initial data, the data will be reviewed by the administrative assistant to the grants? director, and then reviewed by the Treasurer. All three employees will sign/initial a printed copy of the report before it is submitted. Data regarding students served by programs and staff reports will be reviewed by the program director and the data specialist and signed off on by both parties to ensure accuracy. Anticipated Completion Date: March 24, 2023

Finding 2022-002 a. Comments on the Finding and Each Recommendation. Management agrees with the finding. Management also agrees with the recommendation, please see below for action taken. b. Action Taken on the Finding. The infection control expenses were correctly reported in the Period 3 Provider Relief Fund Reporting Period. In the Period 4 Provider Relief Fund Reporting Period, the facility inadvertently failed to report infection control expenses utilized in their correct years. Management will review their internal control procedures to enhance the review process of portal submissions. There is not a mechanism to amend the portal submission and if given the opportunity management will correct it in a subsequent reporting period. Management has utilized lost revenues and infection control expenses in excess of the funding received in 2020 and 2021 and has maintained documentation of all eligible expenses and lost revenue calculations to support this assertion.

Finding 2022-001 a. Comments on the Finding and Each Recommendation. Management agrees with the finding. Management also agrees with the recommendation, please see below for action taken. b. Action Taken on the Finding. Due to a prior finding, 2021-001, internal control procedures were updated and the FEMA assistance received was correctly reported in the Period 3 Provider Relief Fund Reporting Period. Even though the facility updated their internal control procedures they inadvertently failed to report the total amount of FEMA assistance received when reporting in the Period 4 Provider Relief Fund Reporting Period. It is noted that there is not a mechanism to amend the portal submission. Management will review their internal control procedures to enhance the review process of portal submissions. The facility did not inappropriately utilize funds and should not be at risk of having any funds returned to the Department of Health and Human Services. Management has maintained documentation of all eligible expenses and lost revenue calculations to support this assertion.

Finding 2022-005 Federal Agency Name: Department of Health and Human Services Program Name: COVID-19 Provider Relief Fund and American Rescue Plan (ARP) Rural Distribution FFAL #93.498 Finding Summary: The review process for the Period 4 HHS report submitted did not detect the error reported regarding the actual reported revenues for 2019 that were incorrectly keyed into the portal submission. Additionally, the revenues for 2022 were reported based upon actual revenue billed and reported within the electronic medical records (EMR) system which does not include monthly or quarterly adjustments posted to the general ledger. Responsible Individuals: Amanda Soesbe, Chief Finance Officer Corrective Action Plan: There are no further PRF Portal submissions. The control aspect implemented to involve review of the portal submission will be expanded if further submissions are warranted. An expanded control would require the CFO to review in detail with the reviewer how the numbers were obtained and provide all supporting documentation for cross reference against the requirements. This may require extra time to educate and inform the reviewer of the PRF program and requirements. Anticipated Completion Date: 12-31-2023

Finding 2022-002 Federal Agency Name: Department of Education Program Name: Student Financial Aid Cluster CFDA # 84.268 - Federal Direct Student Loans Special Tests and Provisions ? Return of Title IV Funds Finding Summary: 1 of 30 students tested for return of Title IV had a withdrawal determination date outside of the 30-day requirement. For a student who withdraws without providing notification from a school that is not required to take attendance, the school much determine the withdrawal date no later than 30 days after the end of the earlier of 1) the payment period or the period of enrollment, 2) the academic year, or 3) the student?s educational program. Responsible Individuals: Eric Schultz, Director of Enrollment and Marlene Seeklander, Director of Financial Aid Corrective Action Plan: The Registrar?s Office will take the following action: For all programs that have SOE/Internship/Clinical experiences, a roster will be generated, and the instructors will be required to verify that the student has been placed and is actively participating in the SOE/Internship/Clinical. Moving forward, this will be a reminder that is emphasized on a regular basis. At the instructor in-service sessions in August, the Director or Enrollment and Director of Financial Aid present a session which is a series of reminders and other important information that instructors need to know. While we already address the need to notify the Registration Office that a student is no longer attending, we plan to expand on that topic. We will include a slide with the audit finding as outlined so they can see the audit ramifications it has on LATC. We will also explain that this is an institutional responsibility, which includes all staff, all program instructors and all adjuncts. Anticipated Completion Date: Ongoing
