In regards to the referenced finding in the final 2022-23 Fiscal Audit, we acknowledge that our record keeping was not in compliance with the ESSER funds provided to our District. This record keeping was completed in the past in regards to federal funding using PAR forms. Unfortunately, with the change of personnel in the 22-23 SY, this was overlooked. Now that this has been brought to our attention, we will provide training to the proper personnel. Going forward, we will provide PAR forms to the federally funded employees for signature. In turn, we will provide these signed forms to the auditors when requested. It is certainly our intent to always be in compliance with all funding sources.

Standards for Documentation of Personnel Expenses Charges to Federal awards for salaries and wages must be based on records that accurately reflect the work performed. These records must: • Be supported by a system of internal control which provides reasonable assurance that the charges are accurate, allowable, and properly allocated; • Be incorporated into the official records of the non‐Federal entity • Reasonably reflect the total activity for which the employee is compensated by the non‐Federal entity, not exceeding 100% of compensated activities • Encompass both federally assisted and all other activities compensated by the non‐Federal entity on an integrated basis, but may include the use of subsidiary records as defined in the non‐Federal entity’s written policy; • Comply with the established accounting policies and practices of the non‐Federal entity. • Support the distribution of the employee’s salary or wages among specific activities or cost objectives if the employee works on more than one Federal award; a Federal award and non‐Federal award; an indirect cost activity and a direct cost activity; two or more indirect activities which are allocated using different allocation bases; or an unallowable activity and a direct or indirect cost activity. • Budget estimates (i.e., estimates determined before the services are performed) alone do not qualify as support for charges to Federal awards but may be used for interim accounting purposes.

In regards to the referenced finding in the final 2022-23 Fiscal Audit, we acknowledge that our record keeping was not in compliance with the ESSER funds provided to our District. This record keeping was completed in the past in regards to federal funding using PAR forms. Unfortunately, with the change of personnel in the 22-23 SY, this was overlooked. Now that this has been brought to our attention, we will provide training to the proper personnel. Going forward, we will provide PAR forms to the federally funded employees for signature. In turn, we will provide these signed forms to the auditors when requested. It is certainly our intent to always be in compliance with all funding sources.

In regards to the referenced finding in the final 2022-23 Fiscal Audit, we acknowledge that our record keeping was not in compliance with the ESSER funds provided to our District. This record keeping was completed in the past in regards to federal funding using PAR forms. Unfortunately, with the change of personnel in the 22-23 SY, this was overlooked. Now that this has been brought to our attention, we will provide training to the proper personnel. Going forward, we will provide PAR forms to the federally funded employees for signature. In turn, we will provide these signed forms to the auditors when requested. It is certainly our intent to always be in compliance with all funding sources.

Auditor selected employees with salaries coded to the Education Stabilization Fund. Six of six employees tested with salaries coded to the Education Stabilization Fund during the fiscal year did not have any time certifications on file for the 2022-23 year. It is required that the time certifications for single-funded employees be prepared twice a year and monthly for multi- funded employees. Cause: The District has not been following its policy for proper time accounting. Effect: The District is not in compliance. Questioned Costs: Although the District was not in compliance, we were able to review alternative documentation to determine that employees charged to the program were allowable. Repeat Finding: This is not a repeat finding. Recommendation: We recommend that the District prepares time certification semi‐annually for single funded employees and monthly for multi-funded employees.

Standards for Documentation of Personnel Expenses Charges to Federal awards for salaries and wages must be based on records that accurately reflect the work performed. These records must: • Be supported by a system of internal control which provides reasonable assurance that the charges are accurate, allowable, and properly allocated; • Be incorporated into the official records of the non‐Federal entity • Reasonably reflect the total activity for which the employee is compensated by the non‐Federal entity, not exceeding 100% of compensated activities • Encompass both federally assisted and all other activities compensated by the non‐Federal entity on an integrated basis, but may include the use of subsidiary records as defined in the non‐Federal entity’s written policy; • Comply with the established accounting policies and practices of the non‐Federal entity. • Support the distribution of the employee’s salary or wages among specific activities or cost objectives if the employee works on more than one Federal award; a Federal award and non‐Federal award; an indirect cost activity and a direct cost activity; two or more indirect activities which are allocated using different allocation bases; or an unallowable activity and a direct or indirect cost activity. • Budget estimates (i.e., estimates determined before the services are performed) alone do not qualify as support for charges to Federal awards but may be used for interim accounting purposes.

The SPSA did not include the proposed expenditure of funds, allocated to the schools through the consolidated application, to address findings identified in needs assessment. Questioned Cost: None. We determined that Title I, Part A funds were spent on student support teachers and that payroll charges allocated to the Title I, Part A program were supported by time and effort distribution records in accordance with 2 CFR 200.430(i)(1)(vii). Context: The condition was noted at Binkley Elementary and Douglas Whited Elementary charter schools. Effect: The District did not comply with Federal and State requirements related to Title I Schoolwide Programs. Cause: The District office did not review the SPSA prepared by school sites to ensure that they complied with Federal and State requirements. Recommendation: The District office should review the Federal and State guidelines for preparing and documenting activities/expenditures in the SPSA.

The SPSA did not include the proposed expenditure of funds, allocated to the schools through the consolidated application, to address findings identified in needs assessment. Questioned Cost: None. We determined that Title I, Part A funds were spent on student support teachers and that payroll charges allocated to the Title I, Part A program were supported by time and effort distribution records in accordance with 2 CFR 200.430(i)(1)(vii). Context: The condition was noted at Binkley Elementary and Douglas Whited Elementary charter schools. Effect: The District did not comply with Federal and State requirements related to Title I Schoolwide Programs. Cause: The District office did not review the SPSA prepared by school sites to ensure that they complied with Federal and State requirements. Recommendation: The District office should review the Federal and State guidelines for preparing and documenting activities/expenditures in the SPSA.
