Report of Independent Auditors

Superintendent of Schools Leon County District School Board Members Leon County, Florida

We have audited the accompanying special-purpose statement of fiduciary assets and liabilities of the Leon County District School Board’s Agency Fund (the Agency Fund), as of the year ended June 30, 2017, and the related notes to the special-purpose financial statement, as listed in the table of contents.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management of the Leon County District School Board is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the special-purpose financial statement in accordance with Section 218.39, Florida Statutes and Section 10.800, Rules of the Auditor General, Audits of District School Boards. Management is responsible for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of special- purpose financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these special-purpose financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the special-purpose financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the special-purpose financial statement. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the special- purpose financial statement, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the special-purpose financial statement in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the special-purpose financial statement.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Emphasis of a Matter

Basis of Accounting

Special-Purpose Financial Statements

We draw attention to Note 1 of the financial statements, which describes the basis of accounting.

Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Reporting Entity

As discussed in Note 1, the financial statement presents only the Agency Fund and does not purport to, and does not present fairly the financial position of the Leon County District School Board, as of June 30, 2017 in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards

Report of Independent Auditors on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of a Special-Purpose Financial Statement Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards

June 30, 2017

Report of Independent Auditors on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of a Special-Purpose Financial Statement Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards

Superintendent of Schools Leon County District School Board Members Leon County, Florida

We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the special-purpose financial statement of the Leon County District School Board’s Agency Fund as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017, and the related notes to the financial statement, which collectively comprise the Leon County District School Board’s special-purpose financial statement, and have issued our report thereon dated January 12, 2018.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the special-purpose financial statement, we considered the Leon County District School Board’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the special-purpose financial statement, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Leon County District School Board’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Leon County District School Board’s internal control.

A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity's financial statements will not be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies, and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. We identified control deficiencies and have described them in the accompanying management letter. We consider one of these deficiencies, Finding 2017-001, to be a material weakness.

Compliance and Other Matters

As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Leon County District School Board’s special-purpose financial statement is free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.

We have issued a management letter to the Leon County District School Board dated January 12, 2018, presenting certain required disclosures and comments pursuant to the Rules of the Auditor General, Chapter 10.800.

Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the Leon County District School Board’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Leon County District School Board’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

Report of Independent Accountants on Compliance with Section 218.415, Florida Statutes, Local Government Investment Policies

Superintendent of Schools Leon County District School Board Members

We have examined the Leon County District School Board’s Agency Fund’s compliance with local government investment policies provided in Chapter 218.415, Florida Statutes, during the year ended June 30, 2017. Management is responsible for Leon County District School Board’s Agency Fund’s compliance with those requirements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Leon County District School Board’s Agency Fund’s compliance based on our examination.

Our examination was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Leon County District School Board’s Agency Fund’s compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the Leon County District School Board’s Agency Fund’s compliance with specified requirements.

In our opinion, the Leon County District School Board’s Agency Fund complied, in all material respects, with the aforementioned requirements for the year ended June 30, 2017.

Current Year Comments and Recommendations

2017-001 Internal Accounts – Lively Technical Center

At Lively Technical Center, 25 disbursements and 25 receipts were selected and tested. Our testing identified the following exceptions to our testing:

Disbursements

 1 disbursement was missing approval prior to purchase being made.  1 disbursement was missing all supporting documentation.

 4 disbursements were for amounts other than what was indicated by the supporting

documentation.  5 disbursements were missing two authori zed signatures on the issued check.  1 disbursement was missing the purchase order when purchase orders are required for purchases greater than or equal to $100.  2 disbursements were made using a charge account at a grocery store when purchasing cards should have been utilized.

Receipts

 8 receipts had an account coding that could not be identified in FOCUS, Lively’s general ledger system. Therefore, it could not be determined whether the appropriate accounts were used in the general ledger.  1 receipt was not remitted by the teacher to the bookkeeper on the same day.  1 receipt was missing supporting documentation for the receipt and deposit.

Internal Controls

 Bank statements for the Pell account were not available.  Bank reconciliations were not performed throughout the entire fiscal year under audit. There was an unreconciled difference between the general ledger and bank statement at year-end.  The general ledger system used by Lively, FOCUS, has duplicated cash receipts and student deferrals have been debiting cash instead of accounts receivable.  A PayPal account is open in Lively’s name.  A former employee’s access to FOCUS was not properly terminated.  Check images were not available for review for one haphazardly selected month’s bank statement.

To be in compliance with the District’s internal accounts manual, Lively Technical Center should follow the same guidance outlined in our recommendations below in Findings 2017-002, 2017-003, and 2017-004. Due to the combination of control deficiencies and exceptions noted in our testing for Lively Technical Center, we consider this to be a material weakness in internal control.

 1 disbursement was missing approval prior to purchases being made on a purchasing card when a P-Card Requisition Form should be completed and approved prior to each purchase.

To be in compliance with the District’s internal accounts manual, we recommend the following:

The school should maintain documentation to support the purchases and related disbursements made and that all documentation evidencing disbursements be approved by the principal and retained and filed in a manner that makes it easily accessible. If not evident from the receipt, the business purpose of the expense should be noted on the supporting documentation. The accountant should also carefully review disbursements posted to the general ledger to ensure they have been coded to the correct account and that they exclude sales tax. Fees collected must be spent for the purposes for which they were collected.

Checks must be signed by two authorized check signers. The check signers should review supporting documentation, including an approved check requisition, prior to signing checks to make certain that all disbursements are for authorized and allowable purchases. Adherence to this control procedure should be observed by the person receiving and opening the bank statement. Violation of the dual signature requirement should be investigated and documented. Checks should only be signed after the payee, date and amount have been documented on the check; blank checks should never be signed.

A purchase order should be utilized when a purchase is $100 or more and each purchase order should have documented approval by the principal before the purchase is made. Furthermore, each purchase order exceeding $1,500 should be submitted to the District’s Purchasing Department for approval. Any disbursement that exceeds the approved purchase order amount should have documented approval of the change in amount by the principal before the disbursement is made.

14

Page Seven

In general, every purchase should be made using a purchasing card or check issued by the school. If a purchasing card is used, the Internal Accounts P-Card Requisition Form should be completed by personnel and approved by the principal prior to each use. Reimbursements to school personnel should only be made for gas and travel reimbursements and should be approved by the principal prior to incurring any expenses. Reimbursements to the principal must be approved by the assistant principal and the check must be signed by two other authorized check signers. Store charge accounts should not be used.

A deposit should be made on the last day of the week so that cash is not kept in the schools over the weekend and a deposit should be made on the last day of the month to facilitate the closing of that month’s books.

Fee letters should be issued to students and maintained by the school to support the amounts requested from students. In addition, the accountant should carefully review receipts posted to the general ledger to ensure they have been coded to the correct account.

2017-004 Internal Accounts – Internal Controls

We noted additional exceptions to our testing over bank reconciliations for the following schools:

Adult and Community Education

 No reconciliation is being performed for the school’s certificate of deposit account.

Chiles High School

 The account balance for one of the school’s bank accounts that is no longer in use is negative at year-end and there is an outstanding reconciling check.

Leon High School

 No reconciliation is being performed for the school’s certificate of deposit account.

Lively Technical Center

 Refer to Finding 2017-001.

Sail High School

 The bank reconciliation indicated several stale checks that were issued more than 5 years prior to fiscal year-end.  No reconciliation is being performed for the school’s certificate of deposit account.

Swift Creek Middle School

 The bank reconciliation indicated several stale checks that were issued more than 5 years prior to the fiscal year-end.

We recommend that the Leon County School District work with principals, assistant principals and other principal designees, and accountants to emphasize the internal controls that should be in place at each school, especially the accurate and timely preparation of bank reconciliations. Effective controls reduce the risk of fraud and improve accuracy of financial information.

In accordance with District policy, we recommend the school investigate checks outstanding for greater than five years. All such checks should be removed from the reconciliation and the funds should be remitted to the Florida Department of Financial Services, Bureau of Unclaimed Property in accordance with Section 717.102, Florida Statutes.
