Responsible: Thomas Hoover, CFO Corrective Actions: 1) Update Finance policies to document and maintain the documentation of Supervisory review and approval of journal entries charging payroll costs to federal grants; 2) Update Finance policies to review estimates of accrued costs charged to federal grants at calendar/fiscal year end to determine whether true-ups to actual costs are necessary. Completion Date: March 29, 2023 Explanation: 1) Review of allocated payroll costs: Payroll processing and recording of costs charged to federal grants has in practice, consistently involved multiple review and approval steps by at least two employees. Detailed records of these steps are maintained in Finance records for each payroll, including the allocated grant costs. However, Management acknowledges that an additional step be added to capture the documentation of review and approval of the payroll journal entries that allocate payroll costs to federal grants. This step was put in place in 2023 to resolve a recommendation from OJJDP/OCFO. Supervisor review and approval is captured directly in the general ledger system. Finance policies have been updated to codify this additional step as recommended. 2) Procedure for trueing up estimates: Three of sixty transactions tested showed that payroll costs were accrued at year end based on the approved grant budget but were not trued up in the new accounting period based on actual costs. The total variance of the three transactions was $6.20. Finance policies have been updated to include evaluating year-end accruals to determine whether a true-up is necessary in the new period as recommended.

Responsible: Sally Erny, Deputy CEO Corrective Action: Document and maintain documentation of Supervisory review and approval of grant reports. Completion Date: July 10, 2024 Explanation: Since the inception of National CASA/GAL receiving federal funding, procedures and practices were in place for the review and approval of performance reports and SF-425s (FFRs). This practice includes the involvement of multiple staff in the organization participating in the development and review of these documents and a knowledgeable staff member with appropriate authority approving the document. There are many points of approval through the development of the reports. In terms of the FFRs, the Accounting Director is responsible for preparing a Pivot table showing the expenses for the grant for both the quarterly and inception to date periods and to update the data worksheet for the quarterly FFR report. The Controller confirms that the cumulative expenses indicated on the quarterly FFR report data worksheet match the inception to date information in the accounting ledger and then approves the report. The Accounting Director submits the FFR report through the Grants Management System. In 2023 a policy, as part of the Operations SOPs, was put in place that in addition to the various staff who work on developing the performance report, OJJDP performance reporting would be reviewed and approved and documented as such, by the Project Manager and appropriate Chief Officer. This policy formalized what had been happening in practice over many years. While we acknowledge that this policy of documentation was not in place in 2022, the practice of review and approval was. In 2023 and going forward, we have improved documenting the approval processes for the FFRs and performance reports.

CONDITION: The District did not properly record its federal program expenditures for the GEER, ESSER, and ARP ESSER federal grant programs using the various federal funding source expenditure codes as prescribed by the Chart of Accounts for PA Local Educational Agencies maintained by the PA Office of the Budget, Office of Comptroller Operations. This is a repeat finding (2021-005) from the previous fiscal year. CRITERIA: The Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE), through the PA Office of the Budget, Office of Comptroller Operations Chart of Accounts requires School Districts to utilize specific funding source codes for federal program expenditures. In addition, Section 2 CFR 200.302(a) and 302(b) of the Uniform Guidance requires non-federal organizations such as the School District to maintain financial records which account for federal funds in such a manner as to be able to properly track the identification and use of federal funds. RECOMMENDATION: I am recommending that the School District properly follow the guidance contained within the PA Office of the Budget, Office of Comptroller Operations Chart of Accounts for recording all expenditures of the School District, most specifically, federal program grant expenditures to 1) enhance internal controls for tracking and monitoring federal program expenditures and 2) comply with the recordkeeping requirements for federal funds as specified in Section 2 CFR Part 200.302(a) and 302(b) of the Uniform Guidance and PDE regulations. MANAGEMENT’S CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN: District management is in the process of revising its chart of accounts in the general ledger to properly reflect the funding source codes for federal program expenditures, and other available funding source codes (state and local) as applicable to the District. It is anticipated that the updated chart of accounts will be utilized by the District starting with the 2024-2025 fiscal year to enable the District to enhance its internal controls for tracking and monitoring federal program expenditures and to comply with the recordkeeping requirements for federal funds as specified in Section 2 CFR Part 200.302(a) and 302(b) of the Uniform Guidance and PDE regulations.
