Hawaii Education Board's Audit Plans Take Shape

The Hawaii State Board of Education's audit plans are beginning to take shape with a freshly inked charter document, two task forces to investigate policies and a call for a better systemwide strategic plan.

The new appointed board's chairman, Don Horner, has made numerous though unspecific references to audits since he was tapped by the governor in March, and even established an audit committee as one of his first acts as chairman. He declined to go into detail about what the audit committee would do, telling Civil Beat in an email, "I prefer to work through the audit committee, not media."

True to his word, he began clarifying his intentions at the audit committee's inaugural meeting on May 17.
