The Atlanta Public Schools investigation into accusations of address fraud and recruiting violations on the Grady High School football team is expected to be completed next week.

Superintendent Erroll Davis wrote in a Tuesday letter to the community that the investigation's findings will be released to the community during a series of meetings on the Grady High campus in Midtown on March 5.

Davis said the school system’s mission is “to foster a culture of ethics,” and providing false information about student registration strains resources, jeopardizes student safety and impedes the student transfer process.
