FINDING 2024-003 Subject: COVID-19 - Education Stabilization Fund - Reporting Federal Agency: Department of Education Federal Program: COVID-19 - Education Stabilization Fund Assistance Listing Number: 84.425U Federal Award Numbers and Years (or Other Identifying Numbers): S425U210013 Pass-Through Entity: Indiana Department of Education Compliance Requirement: Reporting Audit Finding: Material Weakness Condition: An effective internal control system was not in place at the School District in order to ensure compliance with requirements related to the grant agreement and the Reporting compliance requirements. Context: The School Corporation had not designed nor implemented a system of internal control to ensure that the annual Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) annual Data Collection reports (Reports) were complete and accurately submitted. The reports were prepared and submitted in JotForm, the online application used by the Indiana Department of Education to collect information, without an oversight or secondary review process in 2 place to prevent, or detect and correct, errors. During tie out of the Year 3 report, a variance between the underlying records and reported expenditures of $187,649 was noted due to the lack of effective controls surrounding annual data reporting. 84.425U expenditures submitted within the Year 3 report were overstated by $187,649. Views of Responsible Officials: We concur with the finding. Description of Corrective Action Plan: Management will implement a formal review process over data reporting to ensure compliance with reporting requirements for federal awards. A Grant Coordinator has been hired and is already in place. Both the Grant Coordinator and Treasurer will review and sign off of required reporting and ensure it is completed in a timely manner. Responsible Party and Timeline for Completion: Andrew Grismore - Grant Coordinator and Moriah Crane - Treasurer will be responsible. These corrective measures are already in place.

Significant Deficiency 2024
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Program Name: Maternal and Child Health Services Block Grant Federal Assistance Listing Number: 93.994 Significant Deficiency, Nonmaterial Noncompliance - Reporting Finding 2024-006 Criteria or Specific Requirement: Per Section 200.303 of the Uniform Gran...
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Program Name: Maternal and Child Health Services Block Grant Federal Assistance Listing Number: 93.994 Significant Deficiency, Nonmaterial Noncompliance - Reporting Finding 2024-006 Criteria or Specific Requirement: Per Section 200.303 of the Uniform Grant Guidance, a nonfederal entity must establish and maintain effective internal control over the federal award that provides reasonable assurance that the non-federal entity is managing the federal award in compliance with federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the federal award. Per 2 CFR 200.334 the recipient must retain all Federal award records for three years from the date of submission of their final financial report. Condition: During the audit we tested 13 reports and noted the following: a) There were four (4) instances out of 13 reports tested where the submitted reports were unable to be provided, including the date of submission for the reports. b) There were 10 instances out of 13 reports tested where the County was unable to provide evidence the report was reviewed prior to submission. Questioned Costs: None. Effect: By not having the required documentation and underlying support, the County is not able to demonstrate compliance with the applicable requirements. Cause: The County did not have a formal policy to ensure documentation was retained to evidence review and submission of all reports. Recommendation: The County should consider creating a formalized policy to require all submitted reports and underlying data are retained in accordance with the Uniform Grant Guidance requirements. Views of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding and is implementing procedures to correct this which is further discussed in the Corrective Action Plan. Corrective Action Plan: See Corrective Action Plan prepared by the County. The Health Department will create and adopt a policy to ensure that federal award reports and data are retained in accordance with Uniform Guidance. The Health Department will also collaborate with NCDHHS to develop a procedure to address circumstances when the required report consists of answering a NCDHHS survey or form that does not have “save” or “download” capability, making it difficult to retain the required documentation. In addition, the Health Department will develop a standard operating procedure whereby program managers document that they have reviewed federal award reports prior to submission. While review of grant reports is common, the Health Department did not have adequate documentation to demonstrate completion of this step. Completion Date: April 30, 2025 Responsible Person(s): Jana Harrison, Business Operations Director

Condition: Quarterly expenditure reports for the projects expenditures were not timely filed for ESSER III D3 (2 of 4 quarters required). Plan: To avoid this reporting and internal control issue, the District should schedule the due dates of all expenditure reports in order to avoid late filings. Anticipated Date of Completion: June 30, 2025 Name of Contact Person: Jason Brunaugh, Assistant Superintendent of Finance and Human Resources Management Response: This District is aware of the issue and has determined that the majority of the problem occurs when a grant is first approved, and the first reporting period is missed or if a grant continues into subsequent project years. Management has found a dashboard within IWAS that has a listing of all grants by project year and dates that the grants and budgets are approved that will help determine when the first expenditure reports are due. Additionally, management will work on a process to ensure that expenditure reports are no longer missed or filed late.

SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY 2024-002 Federal Program Student Financial Assistance Cluster Compliance requirements Special Tests and Provisions – Enrollment Reporting Condition During testing, we identified that 6 of the 60 students tested did not have an enrollment status change properly reported. Recommendation We recommend that the College review its controls to ensure that accurate enrollment information is reported to NSLDS. Comments on the Finding Recommendation Barton County Community College understands the finding. Action Taken Barton County Community College has updated its policies and procedures to reflect emphasis on reporting the unofficial withdrawals to NSLDS within 30 days. Barton’s Financial Aid Office will perform a quality assurance review of NSLDS to ensure that the unofficial withdrawals have been reported. Additionally, Barton’s Registrar will perform a periodic check to see if other enrollment reporting is reflected accurately in the National Student Clearinghouse and the National Student Loan Data System. Date of implementation: This has been implemented for the 2024-2025 award year.

MATERIAL WEAKNESS 2024-001 Federal Program Student Financial Assistance Cluster Compliance requirements Special Tests and Provisions – Return to Title IV and Enrollment Reporting Condition The College's official policy is to be an attendance taking institution. However, the date of the institution’s determinations for withdrawals does not fall within the required 14 day period, and it instead follows that of institutions that are not attendance taking. Additionally, during testing, it was identified that the College's quality control processes for Return to Title IV calculations were not completed within a timely manner, and that process determined that calculations needed to be adjusted for some of the students. Those corrections were not made within the required 45 day periods, and, as a result of the late corrections, the NSLDS enrollment reporting also had to be updated outside of its typical window. Recommendation We recommend that the College review and update its policies to ensure that all compliance requirements are met within the required timeframes associated with those policies, as well as recommend that the College review its controls to ensure that accurate Return to Title IV calculations are completed in a timely fashion. Comments on the Finding Recommendation Barton County Community College understands the finding. Action Taken Barton’s Director of Financial Aid has informed the following Barton personnel of the finding: • Vice President of Instruction, • Vice President of Student Services, • Dean of Academics, the Dean of Workforce Training and Community Education • Dean of Military Programs, Technical Education, and Outreach Programs • Associate Dean of Instruction The Vice President of Instruction is initiating a project to involve these parties in the implementation of a procedure to report unofficial withdrawals by 14 calendar days to ensure Return of Title IV is completed within the regulatory timeframes and reported to NSLDS within the regulatory timeframe. Date of Implementation: This will be implemented for the spring 2025 term.

The South Central Cooperative Director, Kristi Hilzendeger, is the contact person responsible for the corrective action plan for this finding. This finding is due to the size of the South Central Cooperative, which precludes staffing at a level sufficient to provide an ideal environment for internal controls. The Cooperative has developed policies to help monitor the lack of segregation of duties but due to the size of the Cooperative it is not feasible, or fisally responsible to implement anything else at this time. The Cooperative will contrinue to follow the controls currently in place.
