Contact Person: Ron Dempsey, Controller Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: Management concurs with the finding. The College experienced some turnover during the year. The new director was unaware that the Cost of Attendance was not being updated when a change in the award was submitted COD due to a change in the student’s schedule. The director is now aware that these changes must be updated manually in COD and has implemented procedures to ensure that the COA is reviewed whenever a revision to the student award is submitted to COD. The college will also confer with the software vendor to determine if any settings in the student information need to be corrected for this update to be automated. The new director of financial aid has been through substantial training in the last six months to better understand how the college’s software communicates with COD and has implemented procedures to ensure the timely submission of disbursements to COD after the disbursements have been made in the student information system. Anticipated Completion Date: Prior records with issues were corrected on September 1, 2025 and ongoing monitoring is taking place

The District agrees with the findings. The omission occurred because an outdated private school contact list was used, and a newly opened private school was not identified during 2024 and 2025 Title I consultation periods. To prevent reoccurrence, the District will: 1) conduct an annual verification of all private schools within District boundaries before each Title I funding cycle, and 2) maintain and update a current contact list and document all outreach and consultation efforts.

Actions taken: The Fiscal Department through the Revenue Cycle Manager (RCM) will continue to convene a regular task group made up of the RCM, two Front-desk Managers, and the EHR Support Analyst (ESA). The task group revised the verification form so that it requires sign-off/initials from the front desk staff receiving and reviewing the form and conducted regular desk audits which improved compliance a great deal. This year, a copy of the form has been marked up to highlight the areas that must be reviewed prior to being accepted at the front desk. Front desk staff will continue to sign the forms as they receive them. Front desk managers will review forms to ensure they are completed correctly. The RCM and ESA will continue to conduct weekly desk-audits to determine if forms are being filled out correctly and if billings correctly reflect the form calculations. The task group will then determine specific training for front-desk staff that are identified during the desk audit. Anticipated first Completion Date: January 31, 2026 (for Month End January) Responsible Contact Person: Tina Kirk, Finance Director

Corrective Action Plan for Audit Finding 2025-003: Procurement Procedures (Significant Deficiency and Noncompliance - IDEA Special Education Federal Program) Finding Summary: Auditors identified two instances in which procurement transactions did not comply with the District's procurement policy or federal Uniform Guidance requirements. Specifically, bids were not solicited as required, and suspension and debarment checks were not performed or documented for the vendors prior to contract award. Root Cause: The exceptions occured due to a gap in the District's internal control structure. These procedures were not being consistently performed, and prior management was unaware the requirements under federal Uniform Guidance were not being followed. Corrective Action: The District will establish and implement policies and procedures to ensure all federally funded procurements comply with Uniform Guidance requirements. This includes: 1. Soliciting bids or proposals in accordance with applicable competitive procurement thresholds. 2. Performing and documenting suspension and debarment verifications for all vendors, including tracking results appropriately. 3. Providing training to staff responsible for federal procurement to ensure ongoing compliance and understanding of federal requirements. These actions are intended to ensure that contracts are awarded fairly, to responsible parties, and in full compliance with federal regulations. Documentation of all procurement steps will be maintained to demonstrate compliance during future audits. Responsible Parties: Fiona Barry, Assistant CFO, and Matthew Gonzales, CFO, are responsible for overseeing implementation, ensuring proper documentation, and providing staff training. Timeline: The corrective actions are scheduled for implementation by March 2026 and will continue as part of the District's ongoing procurement compliance process.
