Huntington District to Pay for Finley Audit
Curriculum to get scrutiny for school to leave state list.
The Huntington school district will pay more than $58,000 for an external school curriculum audit at J. Taylor Finley Middle School because the state Education Department has put on its corrective action list.
The Center for Curriculum Renewal will perform the curriculum audit.
The state Education Department requires such an audit for a school identified in "Corrective Action (Year 1) Focused," according to Dr. Kenneth A. Card, Jr., the assistant superintendent for curriculum and instruction.
