Description: The policies and procedures of the School District were insufficient to provide adequate internal
controls over the Schoolwide Consolidation of Funds process.
Corrective Action Plans: We concur with this finding. The finance department has been working closely with the Georgia
Division for Special Education Services and Support to correct the error in regards to the
process that the consolidated IDEA funds are accounted. On April 16, 2024, were submitted
our corrective action plan to the State of Georgia updating our processes and it was approved.
Noting that we had changed our consolidated funds workbook and the way expenditures are
reclassed on a monthly basis to correct funds. Since the approval of the corrective action plan,
these funds have been requested based on the percentages agreed upon.
