A former Atlanta school bureaucrat accused of participating in the latest scandal at Atlanta Public Schools says she was merely doing what she was told and was later fired.
Last week, news emerged about high school principals resigning in the wake of a grade inflation scandal. Grades of nearly 150 students were changed to passing grades with little or no documented reasoning at South Atlanta School of Law and Social Justice by principal Charlotte Davis, a district report says.
Now, the former registrar at Booker T. Washington High Schools is telling The Atlanta Journal-Constitution and Channel 2 Action News that the central office told her to amend student transcripts. She also said she only got in trouble when she complained that her principal was violating protocol.
