Another LA school suspected of cheating

A second Los Angeles school is suspected of cheating on California standardized tests.

San Jose Mercury News | Published: 09/28/2011 07:31

The Los Angeles Times ( http://lat.ms/nmUjvn) says Koreatown's Virgil Middle School could lose a $3.5 million state grant because of cheating allegations against a teacher who is now retired.

Documents submitted to the California Department of Education allege the Algebra teacher scanned the Academic Performance Index test into her computer and prepared a review sheet for students based on actual test questions.

There are concerns the school might lose the state grant given for meeting improvement targets on API scores.
