Corrective Action Plan

Due to the over reporting in expenditures in FY1819, in the amount of $330,206, Southwestern College will under report expenses for the next quarters until the over reporting amount of $330,206 has been offset by current expenses. Beginning Q1 of FY1920, SWC will report $0 expenses. SWC would have reported $105,202 in Q1 FY1920, however, SWC is using a partial offset of the $330,206 for Q1. The remaining over reported balance is $225,004.

Corrective Action Plan

The division ran at a scaled back level, focusing on the strong foundational master schedule while continuing redevelopment and reorganizational efforts. Expenditures will increase over Q2 and more significantly in Q3 and beyond.

Summary of Activities:

Sweetwater Adult Education Division provided a comprehensive program inclusive of Citizenship, English as a Second Language (ESL), Adult Basic Education (ABE), High School Equivalency (HSE), High School Subjects (HSS), and Career Technical Education (CTE) at 4 Adult Education sites and satellite locations. The division continues to focus on statistical improvement, and used time in Q1 to develop a master schedule that will allow for greater teacher collaboration and student achievement. The new schedule will be instituted in Q3. The consortium began to organize the consortium pilot project related to transitions and student data sharing, which will satisfy multiple activities laid out in the 19-20 annual plan.
