Extraordinary audit finds insufficient evidence of fraud

High-risk

What happened

A state extraordinary audit found insufficient evidence that fraud, misappropriation, or other illegal fiscal practices occurred in board-member reimbursements reviewed from 2022–25.

Why it matters to families

The audit resolves a serious public-funds allegation while leaving the district responsible for maintaining stronger reimbursement oversight and financial controls.

The evidence

The Santa Clara County Office of Education release says FCMAT reviewed all board-member reimbursements in the three-year period and concluded the evidence was insufficient to indicate fraud, asset misappropriation, or illegal fiscal practices.
