About This Document: Stories about teachers cheating have become a regular occurrence in the news. The cheating scandal in the state of Georgia provides one of the most detailed accounts of an environment of pervasive teacher cheating at public schools. The results of Georgia's investigation into Atlanta's administration of the 2009 state competency exams was released publicly on Jul 5, 2011, by Georgia Gov Nathan Deal. The Atlanta fraud experience emphasizes the importance of a number of well-known ethics principles that should guide an organization in achieving its objectives. First, an ethical tone at the top is critical to avoiding unethical behavior. Second, the controls set forth in the testing protocol were obviously inadequate. A final lesson to be learned from the testing scandals is that the hierarchical nature of the governance structure in public education requires repair. The worst part of this deception is that teachable children are firsthand witnesses to these events.
