Maryland officials are auditing Prince George’s County Public Schools’ finances to determine what progress the county has made since the state issued a scathing report more than five years ago. The Office of Legislative Audits uncovered a series of financial problems in the school system in 2006, and made 24 recommendations to fix issues in departments such as human resources and procurement.

“We want to find out exactly what’s been done to take corrective measures, and drill down even more to determine the effects of not doing the recommendations,” said Tim Brooks, director of performance audits for the state.
