Finding No: 2025-004 Condition: The District receives Title I funding and determines eligibility for schoolwide programs based on attendance numbers derived from free and reduced lunch counts. During the audit, we noted that the district’s process for compiling these attendance numbers involves the grant manager obtaining a report from the Business Office, which is generated from the food service platform as of a specific day. However, the district was unable to reproduce the report used to complete the Title I application and supporting documentation for the reported figures was not available for review. Plan: The District will maintain all reports used to compile attendance figures for the Title I grant. Anticipated Date of Completion: June 30, 2026 Name of Contact Person: Mark Orszula, CSBO

Corrective Action Plan for Federal Award Audit Finding 2025-001 Finding Title: Allowable Costs/Cost Principles – Improper expenditure recognition Federal Program: Title II, Part A, Teacher & Principal Training and Recruiting Assistant Listing Number: 84.367A Federal Agency Name: U.S. Department of Education Passed-Through Agency Name: Texas Department of Education Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance Description of Corrective Action The District acknowledges the internal control system did not timely detect the improper recognition of expenditures in the incorrect fiscal period. It is important to emphasize that the expenditures identified were ultimately removed from the current year activity and were excluded from the year-end reimbursement request. The District commits to strengthening its year-end closing procedures and providing comprehensive training to address the noted deficiency in monitoring and review. The following actions will be taken: Mandatory Staff Training on Expenditure Cut-off and Accruals The District will develop and implement mandatory, targeted training for all personnel responsible for processing, recording, reconciling, and reviewing federal grant expenditures, with a specific focus on year-end cut-off procedures and proper expense recognition (accruals versus prepaid expenses). Implementation of Formal Grant Expenditure Cut-off Review Procedure A formalized closing procedure will be implemented for all federal awards, ensuring a mandatory, documented review of expenditures and payables near the fiscal year-end. Persons Responsible Timothy Momanyi, Chief Financial Officer Thania Gonzalez, Assistant Superintendent of Business and Finance Anticipated Completion Date The initial staff training will occur by May 31, 2026. The full implementation of the new procedures, with documented adherence by all responsible staff, will be complete by June 30, 2026, ensuring the new controls are fully operational before the close of the 2025-2026 fiscal year.

Finding: 2025-001 Incomplete Tenant Records - Section 8 HCV Program (ALN 14.871) Condition: 1. For one (I) tenant, income verification was not performed for the current During our review of forty ( 40) tenant files under the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Program, we identified multiple instances of missing documentation and compliance lapses: year, and prior year income was rolled forward. The HUD-50058 (Family Report) form was reviewed in the PIC system but was not present in the tenant file. 2. For one (I) tenant, the Approved Lease, HUD-52517 (Request for Tenancy Approval), and HUD-52641 (HAP Contract) forms were not present in the tenant file. Recommendation: We recommend that the Housing Authority strengthen internal controls over tenant file documentation by implementing a standardized checklist to ensure all required forms and records are consistently retained. Staff should receive periodic training on HUD documentation and compliance requirements to reinforce expectations and reduce errors. Management should also conduct routine internal reviews to verify that income verification and lease documentation are properly completed and maintained. These measures will help ensure that tenant eligibility and payment determinations are adequately supported and compliant with federal regulations. Planned Corrective Action: To address these findings, the Housing Authority will implement a standardized checklist for all tenant file changes, ensuring that all required forms and records are consistently retained. The Program Administrator and staff will conduct monthly reviews of completed re-examinations to verify that all necessary documentation is present and properly filed. All paperwork related to annual re­exams, transfers, move-ins, and interims will be scanned into the Lindsey software system within five working days of receipt, prior to physical filing. The Program Administrator will organize monthly training sessions on HCY/S8 program requirements, with participation tracked to ensure all staff attend. Weekly spot checks will be performed to confirm that the checklist is being used appropriately. These actions will be supported by updated training materials, access to the Lindsey software, and dedicated staff time for audits and training. To mitigate risks such as incomplete documentation, missed scanning deadlines, or low training attendance, the Housing Authority will implement pre-audit checklists, set automated reminders for staff, and make training mandatory. Management will monitor the implementation of these corrective actions and conduct follow-up reviews to ensure sustained compliance with HUD regulations.

Planned Corrective Action: The Organization will implement and reinforce a comprehensive system for retaining all invoices, payment records, and supporting documentation associated with federal awards. Additionally, the Organization will create and maintain a clear record retention policy. Invoice and Payment Documentation: • All invoices related to the federal program will be promptly reviewed and approved by the appropriate personnel to ensure they reflect allowable costs under the specific terms and conditions of the award. • Management will establish clear procedures for the proper recording and classification of payments, ensuring that they are linked directly to the corresponding federal program expenses. • All supporting documentation (e.g., purchase orders, contracts, receipts) will be retained in electronic formats within the accounting system, in accordance with the Organization’s record retention policy, ensuring availability for future audits or reviews. Retention and Accessibility: • The Organization will maintain a secure, organized filing system for all invoices and payments, ensuring that each record is easily accessible for audit purposes. This system will include electronic records that are stored in a centralized database, with restricted access to authorized personnel. • Retained invoices and payment documentation will be kept for the full duration required by federal regulations, typically for a period of at least seven years after the final expenditure report for the federal award has been submitted, or as otherwise required by the specific federal agency. Periodic Reviews and Monitoring: • To ensure ongoing compliance, Management will perform periodic reviews of federal program expenditures and documentation. This will include random sampling of invoices and payment records to confirm that they are complete, accurate, and in compliance with federal regulations. • In the event of any discrepancies or issues identified during these reviews, Management will take immediate corrective action to address the issue and prevent recurrence. By maintaining thorough records of all invoices and payments, the Organization aims to not only comply with federal audit requirements but also to ensure transparency, accountability, and sound financial management of federal funds.
