Criteria: HUD requires the Organization to maintain fidelity bond coverage of at least two months' cash collections Cause: Following completion of the 2025 Mark-to-Market process for HRCA Housing for Elderly Inc., we failed to update our fidelity bond coverage to reflect the revised requirements. Action Plan: Once the finding was identified, we immediately contacted our insurance broker and requested an increase to the fidelity bond coverage. The bond has since been raised to a $2M limit, and the updated policy became effective on 11/14/25. Going forward, the fiscal team will incorporate an annual verification of bond coverage into its routine monitoring procedures to ensure timely updates after significant organizational or regulatory changes. In addition, we are implementing an internal audit component to enhance our review of all HUD requirements. This added oversight will help mitigate future risk and ensure continued compliance with all applicable regulations.

CHILD NUTRITION CLUSTER - REPORTING Recommendation: Management should ensure their key controls are operating effectively and they should document the review and approval of all the reports. Explanation of Disagreement with Audit Findings: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action planned/taken in response to finding: The District will evaluate its control processes in place prior to meal claims being reported to the state for reimbursement and ensure they properly review and approve the claims being reported prior to reporting them and document that approval. The District also understands the person reviewing and approving the claims to be reported should be different from the individual compiling that amount to be reported so two individuals are involved in the process. Name of the contact person responsible for corrective action: Trisha Zajicek, Director of Finance Planned completion date for corrective action plan: June 30, 2026

The District implemented the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) beginning in FY 2025, providing free breakfast and lunch districtwide. Prior to CEP implementation, all students were required to enter Student ID information at the point of sale, which automatically generated accurate CN-6 and CN-7 reports used for reimbursement claims. With the implementation of CEP, the Food Service Director eliminated Student ID entry at the cash register for grades K-5 to simplify service for younger students and improve meal service efficiency. As permitted by Ohio Department of Education and Workforce (DEW), the District transitioned to using daily paper count sheets to record meals served. This manual process required accurate daily calculations, which introduced risk due to the absence of automated checks. Because the District had historically relied on automated point-of-sale reports, the Assistant Treasurer did not independently recalculate or verify the CN-6 and CN-7 meal counts prior to submission in CRRS. As a result, inaccuracies occurred in multiple monthly reimbursement claims. Effective November 1, 2025, the District implemented corrective measures to strengthen internal controls over meal counting and claiming. The daily count sheets were converted from a paper format to an Excel-based worksheet with built-in formulas to ensure accurate calculation of daily and monthly meal totals for CN-6 and CN-7 reporting. The Food Service Director is responsible for completing the daily count sheets and ensuring that daily totals align with CN-6 and CN-7 report data. The Assistant Treasurer has been designated as the responsible individual for reviewing CN-6 and CN-7 reports and verifying that reported meal counts agree to the reimbursement claim submitted in CRRS prior to submission. These corrective actions establish segregation of duties, improve calculation accuracy, and ensure required internal controls are in place to comply with 7 CFR § 210.8(a) and 7 CFR § 220.11(b). The District believes these measures adequately address the audit finding and will prevent recurrence of meal count inaccuracies in future reimbursement claims.

Management Response – Because of the size of the office and the district, we are precluded from maintaining a proper staff size to ensure a proper segregation of duties. We are aware of this condition, and we realize that the concentration of duties and responsibilities in a limited number of individuals in not desirable for an effective system of internal control. To mitigate the issue of lack of segregation of duties, we have cross trained virtually each of the business office employees. While we do have a dedicated payroll person, another individual will perform cross checks & verifications independently. The same goes for issuing checks, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and activity funds. These functions are overseen by the business manager.
Management agrees with the finding and the funds were deposited to the reserve on July 16, 2024.

FINDING 2025-001 Finding Subject: Annual Report Card, High School Graduation Rate – Special Test and Provisions Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Marilyn Hampton, Supervisor of Student Services Contact Phone Number and Email Address: (219) 933-2461, ext.1048 mehampton@hammond.k12.in.us Views of Responsible Officials: We concur with the finding and will implement a corrective action plan. Description of Corrective Action Plan: To ensure compliance with the requirements related to the grant agreement and the Special Test and Provisions Annual Report Card, High School Graduation rate compliance, the School City of Hammond will put into place an effective internal control system. The School City of Hammond will maintain an effective control system for withdrawals from each of the schools within the school system. At the time of withdrawal, a withdrawal form, along with a verified ID will be copied by the school’s registrar or designee. This withdrawal form must include the signatures of a parent and principal. This is the first step in the monitoring process. This system for withdrawals will also include placing a copy of the withdrawal form in the student information system (PowerSchool Attachments). The documentation that needs to be attached to the withdrawal form should include documents that show a Records Request, proof that the student withdrew to attend another school or educational program that results in the awarding of a high school diploma, has immigrated to another country, or is deceased. Upon completion of the withdrawal at the school, a copy of the documentation will be kept at the school, and the original documentation will be placed into the cumulative record. The school will forward a digital copy to Student Services. Upon receipt of the digital copy at Student Services, the administrator will review the file and will sign off to indicate that the record has been reviewed and is complete. To ensure this process is implemented with fidelity, training will take place on a yearly basis with administrators and office staff on the procedures that need to be followed during the withdrawal process.

Corrective Action Plan June 30, 2025 Finding: 2025-001 Name of Responsible Official: Angela Bass Anticipation Completion Date: December 31 , 2025 Mississippi First's Response: 1. Audit Finding Corrective Action Plan The auditor noted that Mississippi First did not submit a FFATA report for a subaward of $30,000 or more in a timely and accurate manner. 2. Root Cause The delay in submitting the FFATA report was due to a personnel transition during the reporting period. The outgoing Executive Director had been executing FFATA filings, and the incoming Executive Director and was not yet aware of this reporting requirement. Because the requirement was not captured in any written procedures or transition documents, the report was inadvertently missed. This was an isolated incident resulting from the timing of the leadership transition and a gap in knowledge transfer. 3. Corrective Action Taken / Planned A. Formal Policy Development - Mississippi First has drafted a comprehensive FFATA Compliance and Subaward Reporting Policy. B. Assignment of Responsibility - The Director of Operations is designated as the FFATA Reporting Officer. C. FFATA Reporting Checklist - A standardized checklist ensures accuracy for each submission. D. FSRS Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) - A detailed, step-by-step SOP has been developed. E. Deadline Tracking & Automated Reminders - FFATA deadlines will be integrated into the grants management calendar. F. Quarterly Internal Reviews - Quarterly internal audits will verify completeness, accuracy, and timeliness. G. Job Description Updates - Relevant staff job descriptions now include FFATA responsibilities. 4. Timeline for Implementation • Finalize and adopt FFATA Policy- by December 31, 2025 • Assign FFATA Reporting Officer role - Completed • Launch FFATA checklist and SOP - by December 31, 2025 • Implement automated reminders - by December 31, 2025 • Conduct first quarterly compliance review - by December 31, 2025 5. Preventive Measures Mississippi First will require FFATA training, include FFATA in onboarding, review the policy annually, and integrate FFATA compliance into grants management protocols.
