MNPS head emphasizes academic growth, collaboration amid audit calls

Metro Nashville Public Schools Director Adrienne Battle referred to recent academic growth and achievements when asked about a Tennessee lawmaker's call for a state audit of the district . Rep. Scott Cepicky, R-Culleoka, leveled sharp criticism at Battle in a conservative talk radio interview last month, saying MNPS and Memphis-Shelby County Schools were negatively affecting the state's overall academic achievement. He also said he asked House Speaker Cameron Sexton for a state audit of MNPS. A spokesperson for Sexton told The Tennessean "all possible options" are being explored and that "nothing is off the table" when it comes to a state audit of the district, which is the second-largest in Tennessee. After delivering a keynote address during a November Rotary Club of Nashville meeting, Battle told reporters she was "not familiar" with Cepicky's comments. She said MNPS frequently engages in monitoring and audits and referred to a recently launched audit of the district's performance and operations, commissioned by the Metro Nashville Council. "Whatever we need to do as a district, we're always focused on continuous improvement," Battle told reporters. "Our mantra is: 'Know where you are, but don't stay there.' Our results speak for themselves, and so anything we can
