The Adams 14 college board voted Tuesday evening to finish its contract with its administration firm, prompting the State Board of Training on Wednesday to rethink extra drastic actions to enhance the district.
It’s the second time the native board has tried this college yr to chop ties with the corporate that has management over the district below a state order. The State Board of Training compelled the district to take the corporate again after the primary try, pulling Adams 14’s accreditation for a number of days. However the State Board left the door open to finish the connection if the district went by way of a course of to point out the state it had good trigger.
Though each MGT leaders and the district’s superintendent have made public statements about their willingness to work collectively, tensions solely have continued to escalate. The district paid a advisor to do a fiscal audit of MGT’s spending, and MGT directed an investigation into staff allegedly being instructed to deceive these fiscal auditors. And final week the district filed a lawsuit in opposition to MGT claiming the corporate is violating open information legal guidelines by not sharing paperwork concerning the investigation it directed.
In the meantime, the district has withheld releasing outcomes of the fiscal audit.
