FINDING 2024-003 Finding Subject: Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies - Earmarking Summary of Finding: Material Weakness, Other Matters The School District is required to set aside a reasonable amount of funds to meet the needs of the homeless population in the school community. These funds cannot be used for any other purpose than the needs of the homeless population. At the end of the grant period, unspent funds must be carried forward to the next grant year. If the school district meets the obligation of attempting to spend the homeless set-aside funds, the funds may be carried over into the general Title I award for the next grant. The funds are not required to go back into the homeless reservation. The 2021-2022 grant award homeless reservation was $8,600. The School Corporation did not spend any of these funds, but was determined to have met their obligation based on documentation provided. The School Corporation did not provide evidence that the $8,600 was carried over to the next school year. However, it was determined that $276 of the $8,600 was used inappropriately in the current school year for other Title I, Part A activities, and not for the needs of the homeless student population. This noncompliance and lack of internal controls was isolated to the 2022-23 school year. Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Kari Dyer Contact Phone Number and Email Address: (574)825-9425; dyerk@mcsin-k12.org Views of Responsible Officials: The School District concurs with this finding. Homeless Reservation funds should only be used for the needs of the homeless student population. Description of Corrective Action Plan: The School District is implementing new monitoring procedures for the Title I Fund to verify unspent funds for the Homeless Reservation are not used for any other Title I expenses. After the 2022-23 school year, the School District changed the way in which it expends the Homeless Reservation by utilizing these funds for salary and benefits of a Homeless Laision. Monitoring these expenditures requires dual signature approvals by the Business Assistant and the Title I Program Director prior to being released. Anticipated Completion Date: Immediate

FINDING 2024-002 􀀃 􀀃 Finding Subject: Title I Grants to Local Education Agencies – Internal Controls Over Eligibility 􀀃 Summary of Finding: Material Weakness:􀀃 Though no errors were found in the Title I application, a documented internal control plan needs to be in place to ensure that the Enrollment ad Poverty numbers inputted into the Title I Application by the IDOE matches the School Corporation’s internal records (Real Time Reports).

Though no discrepancies were found between the LEA and the Enrollment and Poverty numbers populated by the IDOE in the Title I Application, a checks and balances needs to be in place to ensure accuracy in the Title I application, reducing the risk for error and ensuring the LEA allocates funds appropriately. Description of Corrective Action Plan: The School Corporation plans to take the following action: 􀁸 Develop a dual signature page requiring verification from Title I Program Director and MCS Data Manager that IDOE Enrollment and Poverty numbers populated in the Title I Application match the LEA internal records from the October 1 count day of the previous school year. This internal control document will be titled Enrollment and Poverty Verification. 􀁸 Utilize and maintain record of the Enrollment and Poverty Verification signature form during the Title I Application period to ensure the alignment of IDOE data and LEA enrollment and poverty numbers in the Title I application. Verification from both the Title I Program Director and the MCS Data Manager will be required. o Upon submission of Oct. 1 ADM, the MCS Data Manager will supply ADM information on the Enrollment and Poverty Verification form to the Title I Program Director. o During the creation of the Title I budget application, Title I Program Director will cross-reference and verify Oct. 1 ADM data with the Enrollment and Poverty numbers populated by the IDOE in the Title I application, addressing discrepancies with the IDOE Title Grant Specialist should they occur. Anticipated Completion Date: Winter 2025: Internal Control process written for Enrollment and Poverty Verification Winter 2025: Creation of Enrollment and Poverty Verification signature form. Annually: Utilization of the Enrollment and Poverty Verification process and signature form during the October ADM process and during the Title I Application process.

Finding 2024-001: Earmarking Statement of Condition: The Organization did not meet the earmarking requirements for the WIOA Youth services for providing paid and unpaid work experience. Criteria: Under section 129 of the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 section (A)(4)(c) at least 75 percent of funds allotted for Youth Activities must be used to provide youth workforce investment activities for out-of-school youth. Under section 129 of the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 section (C)(4) not less than 20 percent of Youth Activity funds allocated to the local area must be used to provide paid and unpaid work experience. Cause: The Organizations did not have proper controls in place to track youth expenditures to ensure that the Organization was meeting the earmarking requirements of the youth program. Effect of the Condition: The Organization did not meet the required expenditures of the WIOA Youth program for providing paid and unpaid work experience. Action Taken: Management acknowledges failure to meet WIOA Youth grant earmarking requirements. To rectify stated deficiencies, SCPA Works staff shall continue to enforce the following safeguards (established March of 2024) to ensure future compliance with stated requirements: • Monthly Spend Rate reviews: following the fiscal close of every month and subsequent to all state reporting deadlines, the SCPA Works Finance Department shall continue to prepare relevant spend rate reports to be shared with leadership staff no later than the conclusion of the subsequent month. The monthly report shall include the grant title, grant budget, categorical year to date cumulative expenditures as reported on the Financial Status Report (FSR), calculated earmark target, and the year-to-date expenditure percentage compared to the calculated earmark target. Leadership staff shall devise any necessary spending plans with applicable vendors and coordinate the need for Corrective Action Plans. • Priority annual budgeting: SCPA Works leadership staff shall continue to provide contracted vendor annual budgets in excess of required earmark percentages. Specifically, SCPA Works shall require contracted vendor budgets to exceed the value of 20% of all active WIOA Youth grant allotments to be budgeted as Work Experience staffing or participant costs. Actual percentages may vary but a targeted percentage of no less than 30% of all active WIOA Youth grant allotments at the start of the program year shall be required as Work Experience. This safeguard will provide allowance in the event of actual Work Experience expenditure shortfalls. • Monthly Contracted Vendor forecasting: SCPA Works shall continue to require WIOA Youth grant contracted vendors to submit an annual spending forecast by the 15th calendar day on a monthly basis. The forecast shall list the relevant contract budget amount, the actual year-to-date expenditures, the anticipated expenditures for the remainder of the program year, and the balance of any under or overutilized budgetary funds. All remedies as detailed above shall continue to be enforced as established as of March 2024.
