Finding Text
Condition: Supporting documentation for the monthly food service meals provided did not align with the
claims reported for reimbursement by free, reduced, and paid categories.
Criteria: The District is required to track free, reduced, and paid meals provided for the child nutrition
program for reporting and reimbursement.
Cause: The District’s controls did not identify discrepancies between the monthly meals provided and the
amounts reported to the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction for reimbursement.
Effect: The District’s reimbursement claims were misstated.
Questioned Costs: $1,729
Recommendation: We recommend that the District establish controls to review claim documentation prior
to submission.
Corrective Action Plan: The District will keep physical copies of reports and claims submitted. As students
switched categories (free, reduced, and paid), the electronic system failed to keep that in account, leading
to discrepancies.
