The Judson Independent School District is under scrutiny for "flouting everything from procurement laws to the Texas Constitution," according to The San Antonio Express-News. An audit that unearthed widespread problems has gone public after school officials tried to keep the report under wraps.

From the Express-News' Lindsay Kastner:

A law firm hired by Judson to look into several building projects turned up numerous violations of the district's policies and state laws. At least one mistake appears to be a repeat of an error found by another attorney investigation, in 2000.Since the latest report was finished last summer, the district - which serves nearly 21,000 students in Northeast Bexar County - has tried to keep the findings secret, but the 63-page document was recently leaked to the media. The district also balked at disclosing to the San Antonio Express-News the cost of the investigation, but documents obtained by a resident show Judson paid $25,000.

This is not the first time that the school district has been mired in controversy.
