FINDING 2025-002 Name of Responsible Individual: Mary Mercer, Director Student Financial Services Corrective Action: Issue: The current refund report used to monitor Title IV refunds has limitations that affected the completeness of data reviewed.

Finding 2025-004 a. Program Name: Head Start and Early Head Start b. Criteria or Specific Requirement: Failure to comply with the grant agreement’s terms and applicable regulations: The Organization did not comply with grant compliance requirements such as timeliness of submitting reports to funding agencies and meeting matching requirements. c. Condition: The Organization had inconsistent performance on the submission of periodic grant reports in a timely matter. This submission pattern conflicts with grant timelines outlined in the Notice of Awards. Specifically, it was noted for one of Organization’s major programs, Head Start and Early Head Start, that reports were submitted outside of defined due dates. The Form SF-429 was not filed for the 2025 fiscal year. Further, Head Start and Early Head Start experienced 2 delayed reports. Management informed us that the delays in reporting were attributable to submission issues on the federal reporting platform, which temporarily prevented timely filling despite management’s attempts to complete the report. Once access to submission was granted, management promptly submitted the required report. d. Response: Turnover in the personnel responsible for submitting reports lead to the initial late submission. The management will ensure all the reports to be submitted within the defined due dates. In terms of matching, the Organization has made a waiver request and believes in the success of obtaining the waiver.

Finding: 2025-003 Federal Agency Name: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Assistance Listing Number(s): 93.493 Program Name: Community Project Funding Finding Summary: Uniform Guidance at 2 CFR 200.303 requires nonfederal entities to establish and maintain effective internal control over federal awards that provides reasonable assurance that the entity is managing federal awards in compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the award. Effective internal control includes appropriate independent review of reports to ensure accuracy prior to submission. During our testing over the report submissions for the fiscal year, we noted there was not an independent review completed over the quarterly expenditure report. Responsible Individuals: Michael Pollock, CFO and Debbie Dice, Director, Financial Reporting, Audit/Compliance Corrective Action Plan: There was transition in several of the key roles during the fiscal year, causing the review not to be completed over the quarterly submissions that will be rectified during 2025-26. Internal controls will be updated with the following steps: 1) Quarterly federal expenditure reports will be prepared by the an assigned Accountant II member and reviewed by a the Director of Financial Reporting, Audit and Compliance prior to submission to the granting agency; 2) Obtain evidence of the independent review, including reviewer sign-off and date of review, will be documented and retained with the report submission records; 3) The College will update written internal control procedures governing federal grant reporting to formally incorporate the independent review requirement; and 4) The Director of Financial Reporting, Audit and Compliance will monitor adherence to the review process and ensure that documentation is maintained for audit purposes.

Institutions that do not implement an affirmative confirmation process must notify a student no earlier than 30 days before, but no later than seven days after, crediting the student’s account and must give the student 30 days (instead of 14) to cancel all or part of the loan. Responsible Individuals: Frankie Everett, Director, Financial Aid Corrective Action Plan: The College implemented a new ERP system in the current year that caused delays in notifying students of their loan disbursements. PowerFAIDS allows documenting the email sent to students in the Communication Log, but a box has to be checked when the email batch is sent. This step was inadvertently missed in several batches so we cannot confirm the email was sent. The Department is working to automate the emails with a college-hired consultant. In the meantime, the Financial Aid Operations Coordinator (Jessica Jones) is double-checking that disbursement emails are going out each week. Anticipated Completion Date: June 2026

Context: The School Corporation had one project for a bus garage addition that which was funded with ESSER III (84.425U) grant awards. The School Corporation did not execute a formal contract with the vendor as the transaction was under the simplified acquisition threshold of $150,000. As such, there was no internal controls to communicate required prevailing wage rate requirements to the vendor prior to entering into the transaction. The School Corporation did obtain the weekly wage reports from the vendor. The total project cost disbursed during the audit period was $88,727, which included materials and labor. Views of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan: Management agrees with the finding. We did not have a formal contract for this project. It was below a threshold that we had used before that necessitated a formal contract. We now understand that we should have gotten a formal contract in place because this is federal funding. We used the quotes that were provided, and the school board approved the expenditures at a school board meeting. In the future, we will secure a formal contract for all federal funds. Responsible Party and Timeline for Completion: Tara Bishop, Superintendent. Completed 3/1/24.

Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance and Compliance 2025-002 Special Tests and Provisions. Criteria The District is required to maintain records that support the removal of a student from the adjusted cohort, such as documentation to transfer to another diploma granting program, emigration, consistent with federal reporting requirements. Statement of Condition We identified instances in which the District had students removed from the adjusted cohort, but did not maintain sufficient written documentation to support the removal. Statement of Cause The District did not have adequate procedures to ensure that the documentation supporting adjusted cohort removals was obtained, reviewed, and retained. Possible Asserted Effect Without appropriate documentation supporting removal of students from the adjusted cohort, the District is unable to demonstrate compliance with federal record keeping requirements. Questioned Costs None noted. Context A sample of 25 students that had withdrawn was selected and 3 student files were not able to be provided. Repeat Finding: This is not a repeat finding. Recommendation We recommend that a process be implemented to ensure appropriate written documentation is maintained for all student withdraws. Views of responsible officials and planned corrective action To ensure compliance with this standard in the future, we have created a specific folder within our Student Information System for uploading and maintaining all withdrawal paperwork. All staff responsible for processing withdrawals have received instructions for this updated procedure via email and the guidance has also been added to the Secretary’s Manual.

Instructions were given to the consultants in order to correct the reports that do not agree with the accounting records.
