CITY OF FRAMINGHAM, MASSACHUSETTS CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2025 The City of Framingham, Massachusetts respectfully submits the following corrective action plan for the year ended June 30, 2025. Audit period: July 1, 2024 – June 30, 2025 The finding from the schedule of findings and questioned costs is discussed below. The finding is numbered consistently with the number assigned in the schedule. FINDING—FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAMS AUDIT U.S. Department of Education 2025-001 Title I Distribution - Assistance Listing Number 84.010 Recommendation: We recommend procedures be strengthened to document all student removals from the cohort. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: Framingham High School (FHS) reviewed its existing internal guidance on student withdrawals and developed a revised Student Withdrawal Prevention/Process & Post-Withdrawal Support Guide. The revised guidance establishes a tiered process for student-initiated and attendance-initiated withdrawals, including student and caregiver outreach, attendance and credit review, barrier identification, re-engagement planning, alternative pathways, and required documentation before a withdrawal is finalized. Based on this finding, FHS will standardize documentation of all withdrawal prevention and removal efforts. Staff will record outreach, meetings, interventions, and re-engagement efforts in the student information management system using the Journal feature and will also enter each case directly into a district-wide tracking form upon withdrawal. These practices will become the standard and will provide a consistent record of efforts made before a student is removed from the cohort. The revised process will be reviewed with appropriate staff during professional development on October 15th, 2026. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Mark Albright, Principal of Framingham High School Planned completion date for corrective action plan: Training on the revised withdrawal and documentation procedures will take place on October 15th, 2026 and be in full effect as of 07/01/2027.
