2025-003: Significant Deficiency, Cut-off Errors in Preparing the SEFA U.S. Department of Education Passed through Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education Education Stabilization Fund, Assistance Listing No. 84.425D (COVID-19—Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund), 84.425U (COVID-19—American Rescue Plan-Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief), 84.425W (COVID-19—American Rescue Plan-Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief-Homeless Children and Youth) Federal award years 2023-2025 Criteria: The schedule of expenditures of federal awards (SEFA) is required to be prepared on a basis consistent with the financial statements. Expenditures of federal awards are to be reported on the modified accrual basis of accounting and should be reported on the SEFA when incurred. Condition: The District reported expenditures on the fiscal year 2025 SEFA that were incurred in fiscal year 2024. Therefore, they were not reported on the SEFA in a manner consistent with the fiscal year in which they were reported as expenditures in the financial statements. This resulted in $24,762 of allowable costs reported on the fiscal year 2025 SEFA which were incurred in previous fiscal years. Cause: Inadequate reviews were in place to ensure that expenditures were reported on the SEFA in a manner consistent with the year they were incurred in the financial statements. Effect or potential effect: Inaccurate reporting of expenditures can result in actions taken by oversight agencies, which could impact future funding. Questioned costs: None Context: Approximately $24,762 of the $664,215 total Education Stabilization Funds reported on the fiscal year 2025 SEFA were incurred in a prior fiscal year. Identification as a repeat finding, if applicable: Not a repeat finding. Recommendation: We recommend the District implement procedures to ensure proper cutoff-is achieved in reporting expenditures on the SEFA. View of responsible officials: Management agrees with this finding. Corrective Action: Management is in the process of hiring or procuring an individual or firm with the knowledge, skills, and experience to assist oversite and to serve as additional level of review when needed. Management is also considering changes to current policies and procedures to prevent future incidents. Anticipated Completion Date: June 30, 2026 Contact Person: Dominic Accurso, Controller 816-321-5000 Dominic.accurso@nkcschools.org

Award periods (AWPD) were set up in summer 2023 for the 24-25 award year. At that time, official semester start and end dates were unknown therefore the expected start date was entered in Colleague. When the semester start and end dates became official in spring 2024, the financial aid office updated AWPD in Colleague, not realizing students whose FAFSAs had already been received and packaged would not be updated with the official start date. Students who were packaged after the AWPD update were correct. Going forward, the financial aid office will ensure that AWPD is updated before packaging any student financial aid.

Condition: The Organization has policies and procedures in place that require a Change of Status (COS) form to be completed and approved when an employee's job changes, the allocation of their time between various projects changes, and other payroll modifications. However, the auditors noted multiple instances where these forms are not completed and provided to the payroll department timely. As a result, the labor distribution reports generated from the payroll system did not have accurate information. The grants were not overbilled, and the allocations used for billing were reflective of the time spent on the program due to the biller detecting the error in the labor distribution reports in their review; however, having incorrect or untimely COS forms creates additional risks in the grant billing and financial reporting. Response: The Organization concurs with the finding. Corrective Action Plan: The Organization agrees with the findings and has implemented procedures to ensure timely receipt of the change of status form by the payroll department. A tracking log of all requested COS’s is maintained by the payroll department to ensure all changes have been entered into the payroll system in the proper period Responsible Official: Gloria Meridew, Director of Finance Anticipated Completion Date: End of FY 2026

Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding.

The Financial Aid team is actively monitoring this to ensure that current and future disbursement dates consistently match providing an additional reconciliation of dates.

Criteria: Federal regulations and related guidance governing Title IV student aid programs require schools to report the enrollment of students who receive federal student aid (U.S. Department of Education, National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) Enrollment Reporting Guide, November 2022, Chapter 2). At a minimum, schools are required to certify enrollment every 60 days and respond within 15 days of the date that NSLDS sends a roster file to the school or its third-party servicer. The administration of the Title IV programs depends heavily on the accuracy and timeliness of the enrollment information reported by institutions. Institutions must review, update, and certify student enrollment statuses, program information, and effective dates that appear on the Enrollment Reporting Roster file or on the Enrollment Maintenance page of the NSLDS Professional Access (NSLDSFAP) website.
