Finding 2022-003 ? U.S. Department of Education (USDE), Education Stabilization Fund Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF) (Significant Deficiency): During the testing performed for the HEERF programs, we noted that funds were drawn down but not disbursed within the allotted timeframe of fifteen (15) and three (3) calendar days for the Student Aid Portion and Institutional Portion, respectively. However, we noted that all funds were used for allowable expenses for the year ended June 30, 2022. Recommendation: The College should implement corrective actions to ensure that the above findings are resolved and does not recur in future periods. Moreover, internal controls over compliance with federal program regulations should be revisited to ensure adequate supervisory controls, quality assurance reviews of compliance steps, technical training of staff, and adequate procedures are being followed for compliance purposes. Corrective Action ? The College agrees with the finding. There was considerable confusion surrounding the HEERF guidance for many colleges and universities, and this confusion extended to the drawdown and disbursement requirements. While the College drew funds and did not disburse within the allotted timeframe, it did use all funds for allowable expenses in the current fiscal year. Further, funds drawn were kept in a separate, non-operating bank account held by the College until fully disbursed.

CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN January 3, 2023 The City of Salem Schools respectfully submits the following corrective action plan for the year ended June 30, 2022. Name and address of independent public accounting firm: Brown, Edwards & Company, L.L.P. 319 Mcclanahan St. SW, Roanoke, VA 24014 Audit period: June 30, 2022 The findings from the June 30, 2022 Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs (the "Schedule") are discussed below. The findings are numbered consistently with the number assigned in the Schedule . FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS - MAJOR FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAM AUDIT 2022-01: Emergency Connectivity Fund Program - Assistance Listing #32.009, Equipment and Real Property Management Condition: It was noted in audit testing of the City Schools' inventory of devices for the ECF program, one instance of a user appearing twice on the listing giving the appearance they could have had two devices issued to them. It was also noted that the listing appeared to contain one additional asset than that purchased with program funds. Criteria: The Schools should strive to maintain an accurate listing of all devices and all users that have devices assigned to them. A key requirement of the program is to maintain an accurate listing of all devices and who they are assigned to. Cause: The inventory listings of devices appear to be maintained in Excel for the program, which means that errors could result from simple data entry errors, failure to catch all changes or updates that should be recorded, or other. Effect: Errors in the listing could result in devices being unaccounted for accidentally as they could be reported as assigned when they are not, may be on the listing when they should no longer be, or may not be recorded when they should be. Questioned Costs: Not applicable Perspective Information: Not applicable Repeat Finding: Not applicable Recommendation: The Schools should work to maintain accurate listings that provide all the required information for the program. Given the nature of the equipment for the ECF program, it is important that these listings are reconciled periodically to ensure their accuracy and completeness. Corrective Action: The Division leverages a true inventory tracking system for purposes of maintaining the thousands of laptops and Chromebooks in the City of Salem Schools. Even with a system in place, there can be opportunities for keying errors or duplicate entry when dealing with such a large amount of devices being tracked. The Technology Department will review the asset listings, the processes for generation, and continue to seek efficiencies for existing and future management of assets. Such efficiency will include an employee reviewing the asset listing twice a year. If the Federal Audit Clearinghouse has questions regarding this plan, please call Mandy C. Hall, Chief Financial Officer at City of Salem Schools 540-389-013 0. Sincerely yours, Mandy C. Hall Chief Financial Officer

(Significant Deficiency) We observed the following conditions in connection with our testing of the various U. S. Department of Education, Title IV, Student Financial Assistance Programs: 1. Enrollment status reporting to NSLDS for four (4) students tested was not provided as required by Federal regulations. 2. The Center did not provide the Common Origination and Disbursement (COD) funding report for the entire 2021-2022 award year for Federal Direct Loans. As of the report date, the Center had requested it from the U.S. Department of Education. Recommendation ? The Center should implement corrective actions to ensure that the above findings are resolved and do not recur in future periods. Moreover, internal controls over compliance with federal program regulations should be revisited to ensure adequate supervisory controls, quality assurance reviews of compliance steps, technical training of staff, and adequate procedures are being followed for compliance purposes. Corrective Action ? The enrollment information was provided to the FA auditor and several inquiries were made for verification and no timely response was received from the FA auditor. Three versions of the COD reports were provided along with several inquiries for confirmation that the report is what was needed. No timely response was made to our request. Management further explained that it takes 24 hrs. to receive the revised report if what was submitted was not what was needed, again no timely response from the FA auditor.

Finding 2022-007: Significant Deficiency - Reporting Repeat of Prior Year Finding 2021-005 Condition: For the annual report covering January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, the University reported the Strengthening Institutions Program funding spent in calendar year 2022 within its 2021 annual report. In addition, for the third quarter 2021 (quarter ending September 30, 2021) and the first quarter 2022 (quarter ending March 31, 2022) institutional portion reports, the University reported the full amount of section (a)(2) Strengthening Institutions Program funding awarded to the University on the section (a)(3) line, when the amount should have been included on the section (a)(2) line. For the third quarter 2021 institutional portion report, the University also reported the lost revenue claimed under the institutional portion of section (a)(1) in the section (a)(2) column, when the amount should have been included in the section (a)(1) column. Also, for the quarterly student portion reports, the University reported the student grants awarded, the number of students eligible to receive a student grant, and the number of students who received a student grant for each individual quarter and not cumulatively from the start of the programs. Corrective Action: The University agrees with the finding. While the University did not provide the public with data in accordance with the above noted columns and cumulative amounts in the top section related to the HEERF Institutional Aid Portion, the amounts listed and what they were expensed for was correct. Based on the information provided to the University by the Department of Education (ED) and attending other webinars regarding reporting requirements, the University believed it had filed the reports correctly. The University's initial report was reviewed and accepted by ED on June 5, 2020. Based on that acceptance, the University thought it was doing the reports correctly. Since the finding was identified during the audit, the University has submitted the revised reports stated above. The University has a committee to monitor reporting requirements of federal awards consisting of key members of the Executive Team, Business Office, IT and the respective project director. On February 4, 2022, the University received notification from ED that the updated reports had been received, reviewed and added to its file.
