Recently Oakland Unified School District announced plans to hire an investigator to look into allegations by two former teachers that grades were changed for courses, including those taught online, to allow students to graduate.
Two teachers filed formal complaints with the district in June and July alleging that a teacher, two counselors and the school’s former principal were involved in falsifying district records, John Sasaki, district spokesman told EdSource. Each of the people named denied any wrongdoing, he said. The district may hire an outside investigator to audit grades for all students who used the credit recovery program over the past five years.
