Two state lawmakers have referred to the state auditor's office allegations an online charter school failed to disenroll hundreds of chronically truant students in order to pad its rolls. Ohio Virtual Academy, which serves 13 thousand students, says it follows all state reporting laws and enrollment guidelines. Two members of the Ohio House Education Committee say they forwarded an anonymous whistleblower's email to Auditor Dave Yost, whose office has made attendance fraud a priority. They also alerted the Ohio Department of Education and the school, who says it is conducting its own review.
