2022-003 Allowable Costs/Cost Principles Type of Finding: Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Compliance and Noncompliance Federal programs purchases go through multiple approvals prior to issuing a purchase order. Approvals include the grant program administrator, director of purchasing, director of finance, and assistant superintendent of business and operations, and superintendent at a minimum. All approving staff have attended federal programs training including ESSER training. Since the questioned costs went through the established approval procedures, all staff with responsibility of approving grant purchases will attend additional training on allowable costs including a refresher training each semester beginning with the Spring 2023 semester. Training should be continuous and ongoing since question-and-answer documents are constantly updated and changed. To address the specific finding in the audit, the director of finance will establish pre-paid accounts in the general fund that will be used to record subscriptions and contracts that extend beyond the current fiscal year. At the end of the fiscal year, the director of finance will move expenditures associated with the fiscal year to the grant through a journal entry. In addition, the pre-paid account will be reconciled with the balance of each subscription identified in the reconciliation. The list of pre-paid subscriptions and the journal entry will both be reviewed and approved by the assistant superintendent of business and operations as a part of newly established operating procedures. Estimated Completion Date: January 2023 Management Contact: Margaret Lee

FINDING 2022?003 Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Maria Conwell Contact Phone Number: 260-868-2125 Views of Responsible Official: We agree with the finding. Description of Corrective Action Plan: DeKalb County Eastern Community School District will work with the Northeast Indiana Special Education Cooperative to implement the procedures detailed below. The Northeast Indiana Special Education Cooperative (NEISEC) Treasurer will reach out to DeKalb Eastern during the writing process of the IDEA 611 and 619 grants in order for DeKalb Eastern to submit their plans for their allocation of proportionate share money. NEISEC will provide the allocation amounts to DeKalb Eastern. These submissions will include a proportionate share budget and include proportionate share staff names and any necessary information for the budget categories. The NEISEC Treasurer will then compile the proportionate share information and include on the grant submission. The LEA Treasurer will be given a copy of the grant application and budget upon approval of the grant. Any NEISEC employee being paid out of proportionate share grant funds for salary and benefits will be paid from the LEA's financial software. The LEA Treasurer will keep a spreadsheet of employee proportionate share expenses and this spreadsheet will be updated monthly based on time and effort logs that are submitted by DeKalb Eastern to the LEA and NEISEC. Any employee utilizing proportionate share funds that is not an employee of NEISEC, but rather a direct employee of DeKalb Eastern, will be paid directly by DeKalb Eastern. Time and effort logs will still be submitted to the LEA and NEISEC Treasurers for these employees in order to generate a direct reimbursement from the grant fund to DeKalb Eastern. For any expenses for a category outside of salary and benefits, DeKalb Eastern will need to submit an invoice and proof of purchase for equipment, supplies, etc. to NEISEC and the LEA in order to be directly reimbursed for those proportionate share expenses. If the request was not in the initial grant budget, DeKalb Eastern must submit all relevant information to NEISEC in order for a grant modification to be completed. Per IDOE the grant modification must be approved first prior to purchasing the items. Time and effort logs as well as invoice and proof of payment must be sent to the LEA Treasurer in order to completed the grant reimbursement requests. At the end of the grant period, any remaining proportionate share money will require that a waiver be completed. As of this date (2/10/2023) the LEA (DeKalb County Eastern CSD) and NEISEC are still in communication with SBOA and IDOE to review the proportionate share plan and ensure all necessary requirements will be satisfied. Anticipated Completion Date: Changes discussed above will be implemented for the remainder of the FY23 grant period starting 07/01/2023.
