Under Christina Kishimoto's leadership, the Gilbert Public Schools (GPS) overstated student enrollment, resulting in an overpayment of nearly $1 million in State funding, which GPS must return.   The Audit Unit of the Arizona Department of Education recently conducted an audit of the the GPS Average Daily Membership for Fiscal Years 2014, 2015 and 2016. The purpose of the audit was to assess whether the GPS properly reported student enrollment to determine if it received the correct amount of Basic State Aid.  Auditors concluded that GPS inaccurately reported student enrollment.  As a result, GPS was overfunded by $962,767.69, which GPS must repay.  Kishimoto is probably overjoyed to escape from that situation.  One wonders if the Hawaii BOE knew about before it hired her.
