School Report Cards USA (wgvu) - LANSING, Mich. (AP) - A new audit says Michigan's annual school
progress reports from 2004-05 and 2005-06 contained some errors
that might have artificially inflated some schools' results.
The Office of the Auditor General report released Wednesday
dealt with the Michigan Department of Education's school report
cards and adequate yearly progress reports.
The education department says it corrected problems the audit
discovered while it continued. That should make reporting for the
past few school years and future years more accurate.
The state compiles annual progress reports for more than 3,500
K-12 schools.
The audit said inaccurate components of adequate yearly progress
status or school report cards were reported for at least 620
schools over the two-year period.
