CONDITION: The District did not properly record its federal program expenditures for the GEER, ESSER, and ARP ESSER federal grant programs using the various federal funding source expenditure codes as prescribed by the Chart of Accounts for PA Local Educational Agencies maintained by the PA Office of the Budget, Office of Comptroller Operations. CRITERIA: The Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE), through the PA Office of the Budget, Office of Comptroller Operations Chart of Accounts requires School Districts to utilize specific funding source codes for federal program expenditures. In addition, Section 2 CFR 200.302(a) and 302(b) of the Uniform Guidance requires non-federal organizations such as the School District to maintain financial records which account for federal funds in such a manner as to be able to properly track the identification and use of federal funds. RECOMMENDATION: I am recommending that the School District properly follow the guidance contained within the PA Office of the Budget, Office of Comptroller Operations Chart of Accounts for recording all expenditures of the School District, most specifically, federal program grant expenditures to 1) enhance internal controls for tracking and monitoring federal program expenditures and 2) comply with the recordkeeping requirements for federal funds as specified in Section 2 CFR Part 200.302(a) and 302(b) of the Uniform Guidance and PDE regulations. MANAGEMENT’S CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN: District management is in the process of revising its chart of accounts in the general ledger to properly reflect the funding source codes for federal program expenditures, and other available funding source codes (state and local) as applicable to the District. It is anticipated that the updated chart of accounts will be utilized by the District starting with the 2024-2025 fiscal year to enable the District to enhance its internal controls for tracking and monitoring federal program expenditures and to comply with the recordkeeping requirements for federal funds as specified in Section 2 CFR Part 200.302(a) and 302(b) of the Uniform Guidance and PDE regulations.
