Atlanta school Superintendent Erroll Davis said the district will start dismissal proceedings against employees who fail to complete annual ethics training, which became mandatory following the state cheating investigation. Davis said about 8 percent of the district's employees have not completed the training and have until the end of the year to do so. Monday, the school board approved a contract with Kennesaw State University to offer training next year.

"There will be consequences for any employee who fails to complete this training," he said.
