We have reviewed the deficiencies and have included our responses to each below. 1. Finding # 2023-001 –Late filing of Financial and Audit. Reports had not been filed within nine months after the fiscal year end of Jun. 30, 2023, which should have been by Mar. 31, 2024. Management Response: Florence Carlton School District 15-6 has historically filed audit reports in a timely manner to the respective agencies. The district experienced multiple key changes in financial management positions within a short period, which slowed down the audit process. Florence Carlton has filed our audit reports and data collection forms with the state, federal, and credit agencies, but this process also lacked training. Internal control procedures have been outlined and implemented for the future, including the Schedule of Federal Awards, and will continue to be implemented moving forward. The lack of Standard Working Instructions (SWI) contributes to the lack of consistency, compliance, and training. I have developed SWIs with Visual (photos or videos) directions for each step in all areas of a broad base of responsibility of the clerk position.
