The Prince George’s County Board of Education has asked for an investigation into former member David Murray, who resigned earlier this month, several months after he’d taken a job with a school system in Missouri and started working in that state.
The board said in a letter dated Wednesday that it has asked the county Office of Integrity and Compliance and “other appropriate agencies” to look into the matter.
“The Board remains committed to transparency, accountability, and integrity. However, as this issue is now under investigation, the Board will refrain from making any further public statements regarding this issue until the conclusion of the investigation,” the board wrote.
Murray began his new job as the chief academic officer for Missouri’s Ferguson-Florissant School District in January. Around the same time, his attendance at Prince George’s County school board meetings became spotty at best, with his appearances often occurring virtually, if at all.
