Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions: Las Cruces Public Schools (LCPS) uses the NM Graduation Technical Manual to guide expectations and processes for graduation cohort review for all schools.

After findings from the audit, the following will be added to our process. Training: ? The IO Department will continue to train all registrars on a yearly basis using the state?s Graduation Technical Manual. As of December 1, 2022, this training will now be considered mandatory for the school administrator. ? Attendance of the trainings will be documented in our professional development monitoring system-Vector Solutions. Internal Audits: ? Each site?s school administrator, who attended the training, will conduct frequent checks of the students that have withdrawn to ensure proper documentation is being completed using the data dashboards as reference. ?

The Executive Director of Federal Programs will ensure the corrective action plan is implemented in the next Biannual Certification period of January 2023.

November 2022 PLANNED CORRECTIVE ACTION FOR CURRENT YEAR FINDINGS FINANCIAL STATEMENT FINDING There were no financial statement findings. FEDERAL AWARD FINDING OR QUESTIONNED COSTS For the year ended June 30, 2022, there was one federal award finding as summarized below. Finding 2022-001: The Office of Management and Budget Compliance Supplement requires that health centers must prepare and apply a sliding fee discount schedule so that the amounts owed for health center services by eligible patients are adjusted (discounted) based on the patient?s ability to pay. In a sample of 40 sliding scale patients, one patient?s sliding scale category was incorrectly entered into the system. Views of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan: Community Treatment, Inc has in place a policy regarding sliding fee discount program that includes review and random audits of individual sliding fee applications. The error found during the course of the financial audit was the result of incorrect data entry into the EMR for the specific patient. The application itself was correct. Corrective action to reduce the risk of this happening in the future includes, training to all staff of the policy and procedures and the importance of accurate data entry. Additional audit steps will include verification of the data entered and actual calculation on the patient ledger. The audit sample selected by the billing department will be increased for each clinic location and additional reporting of any findings to the appropriate management staff will be shared on a weekly basis.

Management?s Response The UPR concurs with this finding. On May 6, 2022, UPR-Aguadilla tried to submit the annual report but the Department of Education platform kept showing some errors. Aguadilla asked for feedback on HEERF.AnnualReport@ed.gov and received a manual with instructions to resolve errors. The report was submitted on May 9, 2022. To prevent this issue, on March 8, 2022, the Finance Office at Central Administration sent an e-mail to institutional units reminding them that the annual report as of December 31, 2022 must be submitted on or before March 24, 2022.

Management Response: The UPR concurs with this finding. The UPR received these funds through the Puerto Rico Central Government. The Puerto Rico Fiscal Agency and Financial Advisory Authority required UPR to submit a report every first and third Friday of every month to inform the total accumulated expenses. If the new report did not have changes from the previous report our Institution was required to just send an email saying ?No changes from the previous report? and no additional report had to be submitted. ? For the 04/01/22 exception, the report was sent on 04/08/22, but there were no changes from the prior report submitted ? For the 05/20/22 exception, the employee in charge of this task was on vacation. We will designate another employee to ensure compliance with the reporting deadlines. Thus, we will have two employees verifying that the reports are ready to submit on time and one of them can substitute the other one when he is on vacation. Responsible Person or Office: Finance Office at Central Administration. Timeline: 2024

Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions: We agree with the auditor?s findings and recognize that some customers did received funding beyond the June 15, 2021 deadline. BWP calculated the daily average arrears for each customer with 60 plus days arrears during the program pandemic period and cross referenced it with the actual past due balances as of June 15, 2021 to ensure no arrears prior to March 4, 2020 were included. Prior to the pandemic, BWP did not have sufficient arrearage data to easily calculate the credits, hence BWP relied on a data search methodology that estimated qualified customer balances to apply funds. Since the pandemic, BWP has changed its reporting on customer arrearages. BWP will run a daily aging report that will be used to calculate customer arrearages incurred during a specific period. Before credits are authorized, BWP Customer Service will manually spot-check the data set to verify accuracy. With regards to review of Federal grants awarded, BWP holds a monthly meeting with key personnel and an outside grants administrator to get status updates of pursued and/or awarded grants, including any federally funded grants. The Financial Accounting Manager-BWP and Principal Utility Accounting Analyst now attend this meeting. The Principal Utility Accounting Analyst will be responsible for timely communication of all key Federal grants data to City Finance and will prepare an annual schedule for all grant funding received/spent through the general ledger. In addition, BWP?s Legislative Analyst and BWP Finance staff will cross check records to timely reconcile grant reporting/activity.

Need Analysis Planned Corrective Action: The Pillar College financial aid office and third-party servicer utilizes the upgraded automated student information system to assess each student?s remaining need based on the Cost of Attendance Budget minus the total funding received from federal, state, and institutional scholarships. Triggers within the system are generated to the financial aid department when a student?s financial eligibility for packaging changes. Changes occur when the student?s enrollment status is reassessed and modified, or when their credits have increased after transfer credits have been entered into the system. Periodic reports will be set up in the student information system to check for over or under awarding of need based federal aid.

Satisfactory Academic Progress Planned Corrective Action: To receive financial aid students must maintain a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.0 (?C?) or better, or be in a SAP-Probation program to recover their GPA. Pillar College academic standards require a student to have a minimum of...
Satisfactory Academic Progress Planned Corrective Action: To receive financial aid students must maintain a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.0 (?C?) or better, or be in a SAP-Probation program to recover their GPA. Pillar College academic standards require a student to have a minimum of a 2.0 cumulative Grade Point Average (GPA) to graduate. Degree seeking students will be evaluated for Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) on an annual basis. Pillar College is dedicated to helping students succeed academically and progress to graduation and is therefore committed to identifying students who may be struggling. Satisfactory Academic Progress is measured by three components: 1) The student?s cumulative grade point average (CGPA), 2) The student?s rate of progress toward completion (ROP), and 3) The maximum time frame (MTF) allowed to complete the academic program. (150% for all programs.) All students who receive financial aid at Pillar College are required to meet qualifying Academic standards. The student must maintain Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP). If a student?s cumulative GPA falls below a 2.0, the student will be placed in Suspension Pending and must appeal to remain in school. Upon review of the appeal, the student will be placed on SAP Probation for the following semester/year and directed to the Academic Resource Center (ARC) for mandatory tutoring sessions through registration into ARC-090 SAP Remediation, a pass/fail course for SAP students. For the LEAD Program, the GPA benchmark is 2.5 to remain in the program. The probationary status permits the student to continue in college while working with the Academic Resource Center (ARC) to address deficiencies and take corrective action for improvement. The student may continue to receive Title IV and State Financial Aid so long as they are adhering to their SAP Remediation Plan. The student must use the SAP Remediation Form while on SAP Probation (available from the ARC). An assessment of current enrolled students? degree progress will occur mid-July. If the SAP standard is not being met, the student will be placed on SAP-Probation. It is possible to continue to receive Financial Aid while on SAP-Probation if the student?s ?Academic Plan? is being followed, and grades are improving. If a student does not adhere to the ?Academic Plan?, they may be moved to SAP-Suspension, and removed from the financial aid program. Aid will also be suspended for the semester if credit hours attempted fall below the credit hour criteria. Pillar College financial aid office, the Academic Resource Center (ARC) and the registrar?s office met to discuss and update the Satisfactory Academic Policy (SAP policy), implementing the changes in the current fiscal year. These changes are reflected in the Pillar College Catalog. Due to upgraded student services systems the process is functioning more effectively and efficiently. As stated before, an assessment of current enrolled students? degree progress will occur mid-July. The registrar, financial aid, and the Academic Resource Center (ARC) will meet together as a team two days after the report is published to discuss the results. Students will be notified individually through phone calls and emails to make an appointment with the Academic Resource Center to create a self-evaluative plan to increase their GPA. The ARC will upload the plan into the student services system and monitor the student?s progress by direct contact with the student. It will be noted in the student services system under the individual student?s account if a student does not respond to the notices, phone calls or emails that are sent. The student will be put on academic hold and will not be able to enroll in the new semester.

Audit Finding Reference: 2022-001 Planned Corrective Action: This is a repeat finding from 2021 audit which was properly addressed and fully resolved by March 2023. The League has strengthened its internal controls over timely submission of subaward data in FFATA (Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act) reports. NUL Legal Department used to be responsible for generating FFATA reports, as they are authorized with review of new grant agreements as well as related contracts/subrecipients agreements submitted for approval. Some reports were not submitted in time because of continuous turnover in the department in 2021-22. The regular workflow was sometimes interrupted, and new appointees had to catch up following their priority lists. Eventually, at the end of February 2023, the function was moved to the Finance department and a specific position designated for completing FFATA reports under supervision of VP, B&G/Director, B&G. All pending FFATA reports have been completed immediately after that. We keep submitting FFATA reports for new grants as soon as subaward amounts are finalized.
