Report Fraud, Waste, or Abuse

Internal Audit Services maintains the fraud, waste and abuse hotline for use by employees and others to report allegations of fraud, waste and abuse. Our school district, like any other school district, is subject to the possibility of irregularities in the handling of money, documents, resources and equipment. Richmond Public Schools is committed to the highest standards of business conduct. The public can hold a high degree of confidence that we will meet the challenge of identifying and eliminating fraud, waste or abuse.
