Review Report 07/01/2023-06/30/2024

Reviewer’s Statement: To the best of my ability, I have examined the books of the Treasurer and

have found that the reconciled Bank Balances totaling $76,058.20 presented above are correct,

with the additional notation that $3,364.09 of the total balance is restricted to “senior class

needs.” There are material exceptions in the income and expenses (i.e. deposits/withdrawals)

reported during the period under review that will need to be adjusted prior to tax return filing.

Note: this “review” consists of certain specified procedures to verify the accuracy of the organization’s year end bank

balances and a review of areas of financial risk. It does not constitute a formal audit, review or compilation as defined

by the AICPA’s Statements on Auditing Standards.

A separate report of management comments noted during the review is attached.

First Internet Bank of IndianaSouth County PTSO—June 30, 2024 Review—Summary of management comments

The financial records maintained by the PTSO Treasurer were generally in good order. Expenses were

deemed reasonable and in line with the organization’s mission. For the most part, issues listed below

deal with operational procedures that can put financial assets at risk rather than accuracy of financial

reporting. Comments in red are repeats from a prior year’s audit; it does not appear that management

has addressed the concerns raised in the prior year’s audit. The number of instances where the PTSO is

not in compliance with FCPS regulations, IRS regulations, state law, requirements of its insurance

policies and its own bylaws and monetary policies and procedures appears to have increased over the

last year and is of significant concern.

The following observations/recommendations are being made to improve financial processes or

decrease financial risk to the organization.

 Obtain sign off on bank reconciliation monthly from a non-check signer as required by the

insurance carrier.

 Change procedures for recording cash boxes at events.

 Require responsible officers to sign off on check requests prior to writing checks.

 Improve documentation for disbursements generally.

 Record all revenue as revenue, rather than netting it against expenses.

 Ensure meeting minutes accurately reflect significant discussions.

 Obtain proper approvals for expenses in excess of budget.

 Develop a gift acceptance policy.

 The audit report must be presented to the general membership for adoption.

 Cross-reference ANGP activities against insurance policy coverage.

 Adopt a standard practice of collecting W-9 forms from vendors.

 Exercise caution with gift cards.

 Do not compensate teachers for fundraising activities.

 Follow up on state checks.

 Use appropriate logos and disclosures.

 Produce monthly financial reports.

 Correct classifications of accounts in “Grants in Scholarships” header.

Detailed recommendations/findings

Bank reconciliation signoff: A non-check signer has to sign off on the bank reconciliation every month

in a timely manner [emphasis added]. It is required by the insurance company for fidelity bond

coverage, and is one of the most important things the PTSO can do to prevent itself from embezzlement.

Reviews can be easily completed via email; in person sign off is not necessary if that has been the barrier

to completion.

Proper recording of cash boxes/transfers: There were a large number of cash boxes requested during

the year. It is important to record them properly so as not to overstate the revenues and expenses of

the organization in the accounting system. All of the returns of cash boxes were recorded as revenue to

the organization; those transactions will need to be manually adjusted before preparation of the tax

return so as not to overstate revenue for tax return purposes. Detailed instructions in how to properly

record cash box transactions can be found at https://moneyminder.com/knowledgebase/cash-on-hand/ Note that the tax return filed for the year ended June 30, 2023, overstated revenue by approximately

$25,000, which is very significant (23% of the total revenue), due to errors in recording the cash boxes

and other transfers. An appendix is attached which highlights areas where transfers to cash boxes were

not reported properly. However, the listing may not be 100% accurate as that was beyond the scope of

this review; the list is provided as a tool for the tax return preparer only.

Officer sign off for check requests: Almost none of the check requests had any sign off from officers

approving payment; it appears this practice may have fallen off during the pandemic. Having an officer

sign off on check requests (preferably one who has responsibility for the line item being charged)

ensures that people know what is going against their budget and decreases the chance of any

mistakes/misunderstandings.

Missing receipts/documentation: This was significantly improved over the prior year, however, some

“receipts” attached really do not qualify as a receipt for recordkeeping/justification purposes. For

example, a copy of a charge to someone’s credit card only proves that they spent that much money at a

vendor; it does not prove that they purchased anything related to the PTSO (although it is better than

nothing if the original receipt has been misplaced). Similarly, a copy of the last page of a detailed receipt

that doesn’t show all of the items purchased only means that that much money was spent at a vendor.

An email that says “please write a check to (person) for $x is merely a substitution for a check request

form, not a receipt.

Record all revenue properly: There were a number of expense reimbursements paid where the amount

of payment was reduced because of donations or other revenue received. The transactions were

recorded at the net payment amount, resulting in the donations not being recorded. In the 2023-2024

year, this happened most often when individuals handled several different transactions and then wrote

one check for the next amount of what transpired. No adjustments were proposed to the financials

because the total was not material, but recording transactions at their net amounts is not proper

accounting.

Meeting Minutes: Meeting minutes were not sufficiently detailed to serve as a record of corporate

activities as required by state law. Guidelines for basic minutes can be found at

https://www.ptotoday.com/pto-today-articles/article/1029-how-to-take-meeting-minutes. For

example:

 Treasurer reports—while they were attached most of the time to minutes this year, the format

is not easy to read.

 The minutes indicated that $10,000 was designated by the Board to fund the ANGP because the

ANGP needed the money. In fact, ANGP revenue significantly exceeded the budget, so the

funds should have been directed back to the general funds of the PTSO if that were the case.

Discussions with officers as part of this review indicated that the “need” notation was possibly

incorrect—however, the minutes are the official record.

 The minutes are sometimes cryptic and reflect informal comments and exclamations that are

inappropriate to record and detract from the business being conducted.

 While minutes were produced for an annual meeting that was supposed to happen in May,

there was no quorum and therefore no annual meeting. Note that this is not in conformance

with Virginia nonstock corporation requirements (Virginia code § 13.1-838. Annual meeting.) It does not appear from the minutes that the quorum requirements were met for any membership

meeting, which really needs to be addressed by the Board.

Significant spending in excess of budget: It is a bylaws requirement that the organization make

disbursements in accordance with the budget adopted by the membership. There is no definitive

amount specified in the bylaws by which the budget may be exceeded. The format of the budget

presented to the membership can be adjusted to allow the officers discretion to be able to spend the

organization’s funds properly so that not every single deviation from the budget needs to be approved

by the membership. However, as just two examples, the ANGP exceeded its expense budget by ~$13k

or 33% without any documented discussion by members or officers. Teacher appreciation exceeded

budget by $2k, or 50% of its budget. The officers have a fiduciary responsibility to ensure that the

organization’s funds are spent in accordance with the wishes of the membership, and substantial

changes need to be voted on by the membership. When the officers realize that there are changes in

circumstances that require significant budget changes, a budget amendment must be presented to the

membership to be voted upon.

Develop a gift acceptance policy. The PTSO accepted a donation restricted to funding of senior needs

for the second year in a row. The amount was significant and unbudgeted. The accounting system used

by the PTSO is not designed to track restricted donations, and the balance was not tracked properly. In

addition, it is questionable as to whether the funds are being disbursed in a manner in which the donor

intended. The wording in this year’s GoFundMe clearly implied that funds were being raised for 2024

graduating seniors. In fact, none of the funding was used for 2024 seniors because last year’s donation

still had a sufficient balance remaining to cover what was needed for the 2024 senior class. Care will

need to be taken to ensure that the funds are fully disbursed in accordance with the wishes of the donor

and that the disbursements are made in an equitable manner that conforms to the mission of the

organization. The organization should consider developing a gift acceptance policy for future use.

Continuing to accept gifts of the size of the last two years is misleading at best. In addition, since the

accounting system used by the PTSO does not have the ability to track restricted donations, it is again

suggested that the remaining restricted funds be deposited into a separate bank account to help ensure

that the restrictions are honored and so the balance can be appropriately tracked throughout future

years.

In addition, the PTSO was unable to provide documentation that they had provided a thank you letter to

the donor that conformed with the requirements of IRS Publication 1771 (https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs

pdf/p1771.pdf). Note that there is an IRS penalty for failure to provide proper substantiation. It does

not appear that the PTSO has a procedure in place to meet the requirements of Publication 1771,

although the need to do so is pointed out in the PTSO “Monetary Policies and Procedures” document.

Submit audit report for adoption by the membership: It is a requirement of the bylaws that the audit

report be presented to the general membership for adoption each year. There is no evidence that was

done in the prior year. Only the audit report itself needs to go to the membership; the management

comment section (if any) is for use of the Board; the Board may elect to present the management

comments to the membership in the interest of transparency. (There was also no evidence that the

management comments were presented to the Board last year. The minutes say that the Treasurer

said: “We passed our audit. YAY!” which is not really an accurate representation of the review and does not give any indication that it was presented. However, the review report is also sent directly to the

President and Principal each year to ensure it is reviewed by multiple PTSO officers.)

ANGP activities must be cross-referenced against insurance documentation: A mechanical bull ride

was added to the ANGP activities this year. This ride was intentionally discontinued a number of years

ago due to the fact that the PTSO insurance policy specifically excluded coverage for mechanical rides.

Such rides are still specifically excluded from coverage under the policy, putting the PTSO at significant

financial risk in the event of an accident/injury. Mechanical bull riding is also listed as a prohibited

student activity by the FCPS office of Risk Management.

Adopt a standard practice of collecting W-9 forms from vendors. As the PTSO continues to use checks

for disbursements, it is important to know whether companies/individuals to whom checks are written

for goods and services are subject to receiving from 1099 at the end of the calendar year. Failure to

properly file 1099s is punishable for a fine of $60 (each/minimum; can go up to $630 each). Several

individuals (Fischer, Champ, Cotom) could cross the $600 minimum reporting threshold for 2024; some

ANGP providers may also be subject to filing requirements.

Exercise caution with gift cards. Technically, giving gift cards creates a taxable event for the recipient in

the eyes of the IRS. Typically the PTSO gifts very small amounts to teachers—usually not more than

$25—which is unlikely to create a problem. However, this year some larger gift cards were given. It is

unlikely to become an issue with the IRS, but not impossible. Also, note that FCPS Regulation R1370

specifically states that “fundraising proceeds cannot be used to enhance staff compensation [or] to

make gifts to employees.”

Do not provide compensation to any teacher in conjunction with craft shows.

One teacher was provided two different checks so far in 2024 for her participation in the craft show, and

no backup for the checks were provided. From discussion with officers, it appears this payment may

have been for services provided to fund a certain program; in that event, an agreement should be drawn

up between the PTSO and school (or the appropriate student organization) and the check should be

written to the school for credit to the organization it is supposed to benefit (as is the case with the Swim

Team and Band Boosters). Payment to the teacher violates FCPS Regulation 1370.7 which states that

“FCPS staff may not receive or accept compensation, gifts, or other benefits from school support

organizations or business partners for organizing, supervising, or participating in fundraising activities.”

Follow up on stale checks

Two adjustments were made outside of MoneyMinder because two checks that were outstanding as of

June 30, 2023 were not properly recorded in MoneyMinder, and the effort to correct it at the end of the

year was too much to justify making the correction within the system. One check was rewritten without

properly voiding the one which was outstanding, which caused School Support expenses to be

overstated for the year ended June 30, 2024. For the other check, the person chose to donate the funds

back to the PTSO rather than having another check re-written; that needed to be recorded as donation

revenue for the year ended June 30, 2024. (These checks were corrected for the financial report on the

first page, but they remain uncorrected in MoneyMinder for the 2023-2024 year.)

It is important to regularly follow up on any checks outstanding for more than 90 days; they cannot

simply be ignored if they are not cashed over time. Any amounts not claimed by the intended recipient after five years need to be turned over to Virginia under the escheatment rules; please refer to the

Virginia Disposition of Unclaimed Property Act at Virginia Disposition of Unclaimed Property Act at

55.1-2500. Also, in the event that a stale check needs to be voided in a subsequent year, guidance on

how to do so within MoneyMinder can be found at https://moneyminder.com/knowledgebase/stale

checks-prior-financial-years/

Use appropriate logos and disclosures to distinguish from school sponsored activities

Several instances were noted of activities or fundraisers that did not include the required disclosure of

independence from FCPS or used a South County logo that was not the PTSO logo. Note that FCPS

Regulation 1370.7 states the following.

Independence from FCPS:

Advertisements for events or activities sponsored by school support organizations must include the

following disclaimer: “This event [or activity] is sponsored by the [name of the organization] and is

operated independently of the Fairfax County School Board, the Superintendent, and [name of affiliated

school].”

Use of logo:

Official FCPS school names and logos may be used by school support organizations only with the

permission of the school principal and may not be used in such a way so as to imply that the event or

activity is sponsored by the School Board, the Superintendent, or the organization’s affiliated school.

Produce monthly financial reports

Because of the lack of approval of meeting minutes being regularly recorded in the minutes, it was

impossible to determine with certainty whether all meeting minutes were provided and how often

meetings were held. In the event that monthly meetings are not held, note that FCPS Regulation 5810.9

states the following.

School support organizations must: a. Provide an annual budget approved by the organization

membership to the school principal. b. Provide a monthly financial report, including outstanding

obligations, to the organization membership and the principal. c. Provide an annual financial report to

the organization membership and the principal.

Correct classifications of accounts in “Grants in Scholarships” header

Food and Families is a Program Service, not a grant or scholarship program. “Facilities and Programs”

could be Program Services or Academic Enrichment, depending on how the money is spent. While it

makes no difference in the monthly reports, the classification does make a difference for tax return

purposes. Adjustments
