Name and address of independent accounting firm: CohnReznick 7501 Wisconsin Ave, Suite 400E Bethesda, Maryland 20814 Audit period: January 01, 2022-December 31, 2022 The findings from the December 31, 2022 schedule of findings and questioned costs are discussed below. The findings are numbered consistently with the numbers assigned in the schedule. Findings and Questioned Costs - Major Federal Program Audit MATERIAL WEAKNESS Hope VI Cluster 14.889 2022-002 ? Allowable Costs/Cost Principles Recommendation: The Company should establish a system of internal controls to provide reasonable assurance that salary and wage costs are accurate, allowable, and properly allocated by basing salaries and wages charged to federal awards on underlying records that accurately reflect all work performed on a daily basis in accordance with 2 CFR 200, Subpart E, Subsection 430. Action Taken: The Company has procedures in place to provide reasonable assurance that salaries and wages are accurate. The Company has managed several federal award programs and has a billing tracking system already implemented in ADP. When implementing this new program with a different department, it was identified that three staff were not following the payroll billing policies already put in place. The Company has notified the staff and effective September 1, 2023, the department has started tracking their time directly in ADP. Management will review this billing as part of draw submissions to confirm the process is being followed.

CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN Program Name: Foster Care Title IVE Finding: 2022-001 Name of Contact: Keri Jerrell, Child Welfare Program Manager Corrective Action Plan: As children enter foster care, a DSS-5120 is required to be completed in order to determine foster care funding eligibility. Once determined, the eligibility is used in a variety of ways, including, administrative coding and payment for room and board services. As both of these areas involve fiscal operations and county, state, and federal funds, proper determination is imperative. Once satisfied that the proper determination has been made, proper communication and transfer of that determination is of equal importance. In order to assure that a prompt and efficient foster care funding determination is made for each child entering custody of the Alexander County Department of Social Services, the Department is adopting the following plan: 1. Internal guidance for completing the initial DSS-5120 and all subsequent DSS-5120 reviews will be developed and implemented. Guidance will include specialized training for identified staff and a multi-party review process. Projected completion date: 12-31-22 2. 100% of Alexander County DSS cases will be reviewed to ensure that the original funding determination cited on the DSS-5120 is reflected on the respective DSS-5094. Projected completion date: 11-30-22 3. Existing internal guidance document involving the use of the PQA-020 report will be reviewed with involved staff, stressing the importance of consistent documentation of funding source. Projected completion date: 11-30-22

The cases sited in error could not be corrected in the system as they were applications & had alaready been processed.

Finding No. 2022-001 ? Section 811 ? CFDA No. 14.181 Type of Finding ? Federal Award Finding Finding Resolution Status ? In progress Criteria or Specific Condition ? Under the terms of the Capital Advance Program Regulatory Agreement, the Project is required to obtain a written approval of all withdrawals from the residual receipt. Statement of Condition ? During the year ended June 30, 2021, an excess deposit of $1,086 was made to the residual receipt. During the year ended June 30, 2022, the excess deposit of $1,086 made in 2021 was withdrawn, however the withdrawal was not approved by HUD. Cause ? It was an oversight of management to withdraw the additional deposits made in the prior year without HUD approval. Effect or Potential Effect ? The Project is not in compliance with the regulatory agreement with HUD. Auditor Non-Compliance Code ? A ? Unauthorized withdrawal from residual receipt account. Questioned Costs ? $1,086 Reporting View of Responsible Officials ? We concur with the auditor?s recommendation. Recommendation ? We recommend that management obtain a written approval from HUD for all withdrawals from the residual receipt. Auditor?s Summary of the Auditee?s Comments on the Findings and Recommendations ? Agree Response Indicator ? Agree Completion Date ? November 3, 2022 Response ? While we are aware of the need for HUD approval prior to withdrawing funds from the residual receipt account, the accounting team was not aware of the need to seek approval for mis-deposited funds, thinking that this was correcting an error, not compounding it. The accounting team will agree the required deposit to the surplus cash calculation per the Audited Financial Statements and Supplementary Information so that the correct amount is transferred from the operating account to the residual receipt account which will eliminate the possibility of overfunding the account. On the off chance that funds are mistakenly deposited into the residual receipt account in the future, the accounting team is also now aware of the need to get HUD approval to remove the funds from the account.

Incorrect and Untimely Return of Title IV (R2T4) Funds Planned Corrective Action: The Financial Aid Office reviewed the new modular regulations and guidance again as it was identified that exemption(s) were missed in the initial review. The team updated the 2021 NASFAA R2T4 decision tree with notes breaking down the complexity of the new modular regulations and how they apply to our modules/programs. The unofficial withdrawal list for the academic year was re-requested from the registrar?s office and reviewed. Students that met exemption were awarded funds back, recalculated if needed, and processed. Although the Financial Aid Office did implement changes on identifying unofficial withdraws (students were identified) from the prior year finding, the complexity of the modular regulations impacted the finding for 2022. A review of each student?s module will be performed (Executive Director of Financial Aid / Lead Director) and then reviewed and processed by staff member (Financial Aid Director). The final determination list will be compared to the R2T4?s processed.

Adjusting Journal Entries, Required Disclosures and Draft Financial Statements Auditor?s Recommendation: Although auditors may continue to provide such assistance both now and in the future, under the pronouncement, the District should continue to review and accept both proposed adjusting journal entries and footnote disclosures, along with the draft financial statements. In addition, the District should have more of a balance sheet focus throughout the fiscal year, which would decrease the number of adjustments made at year-end. School District?s Response: The District will continue to review and accept proposed adjusting journal entries and footnote disclosures as necessary during the external financial audit. Mr. Daniel Grant (Assistant Superintendent) will collaborate with Ms. Laura Kowalczyk (District Treasurer) in order to develop an increased focus upon the balance sheet throughout the fiscal year, with the goal of continuing to reduce the number of auditor adjustments required at year end. Corrective actions have already begun and will continue throughout the fiscal year (ending June 30, 2023).
