Management Response/Corrective Action Plan: RSU #4 acknowledges the audit finding regarding the lack of documented evidence verifying contractors’ eligibility for federally funded projects. It is part of our process to check for suspension and debarment using the System for Award Management (SAM) database; however, we did not retain sufficient evidence of these checks. Moving forward, we will ensure proper documentation is maintained to demonstrate compliance with federal guidelines. Corrective Action Plan: 1. Documentation Enhancement: ○ Action: Implement procedures to formally document SAM database checks for all vendors and contractors, ensuring that evidence of these checks is retained in procurement records. ○ Timeline: Effective immediately. ○ Responsible Party: Business Office Staff. 2. Training: ○ Action: Provide training to procurement staff on proper procedures for verifying and documenting vendor eligibility, including the importance of retaining evidence. ○ Timeline: Training completed within 30 days. ○ Responsible Party: Business Manager. 3. Monitoring and Review: ○ Action: Conduct periodic internal audits of vendor eligibility documentation to ensure compliance with updated procedures. ○ Timeline: Reviews conducted semi-annually starting January 1, 2025. ○ Responsible Party: Business Manager. Expected Outcome: These actions will ensure that RSU #4’s established process for verifying vendor eligibility is fully documented, thereby maintaining compliance with federal guidelines and safeguarding access to federal funding. We are committed to addressing this issue promptly and ensuring continued adherence to grant requirements.

Finding #2024-002: #84.184X - Wisconsin Well Be's School-Based Mental Health Consortium Federal Grantor Agency: U.S. Department of Education Compliance Requirement: Subrecipient Monitoring Condition:During our audit procedures, it was determined that although the District did sufficiently monitor subrecipient awards, there was no formal written agreement between the District and the subrecipient to document the terms and conditions of the subrecipient awards. Effect: The District's system of monitoring is not formal or uniform which could result in misunderstandings and miscommunication between the District and the subrecipients. Cause: The District does not have a formal written agreement between the District and the sub-recipients. Criteria: It is necessary under the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (0MB) Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (commonly called "Uniform Guidance") and under most federal grant agreements that any federal funds passed through to a subrecipient be appropriately monitored and that the subrecipient is properly informed of the grant requirements. Recommendation: We recommend that the District have written agreements signed by all parties that fully explain the federal grant requirements and include other appropriate language to protect the District and to further document the District's compliance regarding subrecipient monitoring. Response:The District will implement a formal written agreement between the District and subrecipients. Randolph School District's Corrective Action Plan: The District will implement a formal written agreement between the District and subrecipients and establish a District policy for subrecipient monitoring.

Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance and Other Matters Compliance Requirement: Special tests and Provisions - Enrollment Corrective Action Plan: The Admissions and Records Office is currently responsible for reporting student enrollment to National Student Clearinghouse (NSC). Once enrollment is validated and certified, it is reported directly to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS). Grayson College does not report enrollment directly in NSLDS. The OFA requests a copy of the validated and certified NSC enrollment report from the Admissions and Records Office to double check accuracy by performing a random selection of students to confirm they have been reported correctly in NSLDS. If, for some reason, a student’s enrollment is not correct in NSLDS, the OFA contacts NSC to get an understanding as to why it is not reported correctly to NSLDS. This happens after each validated and certified cycle, including all module terms (8-week and mini-mester). The College is investigating how to conduct a batch validation, which will be more robust than the sampling method. GC Financial Aid staff have received additional training and understand the importance of V4 and V5 verification coupled with accurate reporting to the NSLDS. They are committed to making sure these actions as stated occur each semester. Name of Contact Persons: Carolyn Kasdorf - Vice President of Business Services. Stephanie Martin - Director of Financial Aid and Veteran Services Projected Completion Date: 2025

Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance and Other Matters Compliance Requirement: Special Tests and Provisions - Verification Corrective Action Plan: The Office of Financial Aid (OFA) has begun to monitor students that are selected for V4 and V5 verification by the U.S. Department of Education.

Once students fulfill the verification request, the OFA updates the Verification of Identity portal as applicable. As of December 2, 2024, the Verification of Identity portal is not available for either 2024-25 or 2025-26 reporting for any Institution of Higher Education. At this time, it is unknown when the portal for reporting will be available. Name of Contact Persons: Carolyn Kasdorf - Vice President of Business Services.
