BATON ROUGE, LA (WAFB) -
A new Legislative Audit report released Monday shows some
problems with the way the State Department of Education is managing its charter
schools.
Charter schools are independent, publicly funded elementary or
secondary schools that are operated through a charter between a non-profit or
other group and the state.
State law requires the state to monitor the academic,
financial, and legal performance of charter schools annually. In 2010 the state
put eight schools on probation. The audit says by 2012 the state did not follow
up on the probationary status of seven of those schools. One had actually
closed.
"The report is looking at the Charter school, it's not
exactly how the charter schools are operating but from the Department of
Education's prospective, that's what performance audits are all designed for.
We give them recommendations we give them suggestions. The department is taking
it seriously," says State Legislative auditor Daryl Purpura.
Barry Landry with the Department of Education released this
written response on Monday: "Every school received one review of its compliance with state
laws. The audit revealed a poorly written rule that required schools to have
two of the same reviews, which makes little sense. We thank the legislative
auditor for helping us to see the flaw in the rule and will update it
immediately."
