Finding Text
Federal Program: ALN 10.553/10.555 Child Nutrition Cluster
Condition: The District failed to properly report the number of student meals that were served and reported to the State via CLiCS, for which Federal funding was received.
Criteria: The District is required to accurately monitor, record, and report the numbers of meals that were served to students and how many of these were free or reduced.
Cause: The District included adult meals served in their monthly CLiCS submission to the State. Adult meals are not eligible for State or Federal reimbursement.
Effect: The failure to exclude adult meals from the reimbursable student meal counts reported to the State resulted in the District being reimbursed for ineligible meals.
Questioned Costs: None. The maximum potential impact was below the reportable threshold under Uniform Guidance.
Recommendation: We recommend that the District evaluate current procedures for accurately monitoring, recording, and reporting the number of meals served and ensure proper meal counts are reported to the State.
