All Pre-K providers must submit a reconciliation report detailing the expenditure of Pre-K funds for the dates of the Pre-K contract. This report shall include supporting documentation, if requested by Bright from the Start, to verify that funds were spent in appropriate categories for their intended uses. Any unexpended funds must be returned to Bright from the Start when the report is submitted.

To be in compliance and eligible for funding for the next school year, reconciliation report and documentation must be submitted on time during the current school year.

Submitting reports is the responsibility of the Project Director and a lack of compliance shall affect future funding. RC funds are awarded at the company or Board of Education level and turning in reports late for one site shall impact overall funding.

It is required to retain records for a minimum of three years as specified in your contract, including documentation needed for the annual reconciliation.

Detailed information on submitting the Pre-K reconciliation report, a sample reconciliation form, and due dates are available in section 7.6 and 19.0 in the current Pre-K Providers' Operating Guidelines.
