TEA intruder audits at KIPP Texas schools cited 10 findings; corrective actions planned
Summary
KIPP Texas reported that the Texas Education Agency conducted 43 intruder audits at its schools during the year and identified 10 findings; the network will retrain staff, submit corrective actions and review details in executive session.
Laura Howarth, chief operations officer, briefed the KIPP Texas Board of Directors on April 24 that the Texas Education Agency had conducted 43 intruder audits across KIPP Texas schools this school year and that the audits produced 10 findings.
Howarth said the agency assigns corrective actions for audit findings, and that KIPP Texas would retrain staff, craft action plans to address deficiencies and notify the public at the board meeting. She added that the board would discuss the details of the findings in executive session. The meeting record shows the board then entered executive session under Texas Government Code sections that allow deliberation on security and personnel matters and later returned to open session.
Howarth did not provide the specific findings in open session; the board record notes the findings and corrective actions will be discussed in executive session and shared with the safety and security committee.
