MATERIAL WEAKNESSREPEAT

The fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 audit report, including reporting required under Uniform Guidance and bond compliance, was not filed with the appropriate agencies by the Montana statutory, Uniform Guidance and bond compliance filing due dates of within nine months after the fiscal year end of June 30, 2023 (March 31, 2024). Criteria: Audit reports for entities that have expended over $750,000 in federal awards and are subject to Uniform Guidance are required by MT statute (MCA 20-7-501) and federal law (2 CFR 200.512 (a)), and those subject to additional filing requirements due to bond compliance requirements are to be filed with the respective agencies within nine months of the entity’s fiscal year end. Internal control procedures should be designed and operational to meet these filing deadlines. Context: The School District had historically timely filed its audits to the respective agencies as required by law but has failed to do so for fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2023. Effect: The School District filed the audit report and data collection form to the state, federal and credit agencies after the required due date of March 31, 2024 and is not in compliance with state, federal and bond compliance filing requirements. Cause: The School District had multiple changes in key financial management positions in a short period of time. Additional time was required by the entity to produce complete and auditable financial information and schedules, including the Schedule of Federal Awards, for the year ended June 30, 2023. Questioned Federal Costs: None Recommendation: Internal control procedures should be designed and put into place to ensure that financial reporting be completed in a timely manner. These procedures should include training on filing requirements and an understanding of the consequences of late submission. If necessary, assistance should be obtained from third party sources.

Corrective Action Plan

We have reviewed the deficiencies and have included our responses to each below. 1. Finding # 2023-001 –Late filing of Financial and Audit. Reports had not been filed within nine months after the fiscal year end of Jun. 30, 2023, which should have been by Mar. 31, 2024. Management Response: Florence Carlton School District 15-6 has historically filed audit reports in a timely manner to the respective agencies. The district experienced multiple key changes in financial management positions within a short period, which slowed down the audit process. Florence Carlton has filed our audit reports and data collection forms with the state, federal, and credit agencies, but this process also lacked training. Internal control procedures have been outlined and implemented for the future, including the Schedule of Federal Awards, and will continue to be implemented moving forward. The lack of Standard Working Instructions (SWI) contributes to the lack of consistency, compliance, and training. I have developed SWIs with Visual (photos or videos) directions for each step in all areas of a broad base of responsibility of the clerk position.
