Description of Corrective Action Plan: Crawfordsville Community School Corporation plans to review all internal control procedures, including the controls over Special Tests and Provisions – Wage Rate Requirements for the Education Stabilization Fund. After this review, we will implement a system to ensure that the proper procedures are completed and fully integrated into our internal control structure. We will implement additional training for all staff involved and will have a designated place where this support is kept. Anticipated Completion Date: We expect this Corrective Action to be implemented as of the current date due
to this grant being completed and the School Corporation is not expected to have these grant funds in the future.
