Context: The School Corporation was required to submit two Annual Data Reports to the Indiana Department of Education (IDOE) during the audit period to meet federal reporting requirements for ESSER grant awards. We noted that the ESSER I and ESSER II amounts reported for the reports covering the FY22 time period ($0 and $459,915 respectively) did not agree to the underlying expenditure records ($27,092 and $455,658 respectively) for the period of July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022.
Additionally, we noted that the ESSER II, and ESSER III amounts reported for the reports covering the FY23 time period ($459,616 and $22,273 respectively) did not agree to the underlying expenditure records ($107,610 and $1,274,716 respectively) for the period of July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023.
We also noted there was no documented, secondary review of the information in the annual data reports by someone other than the preparer. Additionally, the School Corporation was unable to provide the supporting reports containing the FTEs reported as of 9/30/22 and 9/30/23.
