We recommend that the Assistant Secretary for the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education require the Iowa Department of Education (Iowa) to require Linn-Mar to determine whether the $228,510 that Linn-Mar charged to the ESSER grant without using a competitive procurement process or obtaining price or rate quotations from an adequate number of vendors was reasonable when compared to the costs of suitable alternatives, and if not, require appropriate corrective actions.
