(AJC) — A Fulton County grand jury has subpoenaed Atlanta Public Schools, seeking among other things the names of all employees paid bonuses for improved student test scores, as well as a list of those disciplined since 1999. The subpoena, obtained Monday evening by Channel 2 Action News, is the latest and one of the most serious developments in the ongoing Atlanta school test cheating scandal. The documents must be delivered to the Fulton County Courthouse on the morning of Aug. 26. One part of the 12-point subpoena seeks a list of all employees or received bonus or incentive payments, including the amounts paid, “based in whole or in part on reaching an academic benchmark.”
