MARION — According to a state audit released this week for Marion Community Schools, the district’s former Chief Financial Officer is on the hook for more than $26,000 in gift card purchases he made on the taxpayer’s dime.
However, the Indiana State Board of Accounts found of 28 gift cards purchased between August 31, 2023 and September 19, 2023 only 5 gift cards were given to school employees. The district notified the Indiana State Board of Accounts in October 2023 about Bumgardner’s purchase activity, according to the audit.The State Board of Accounts racked up more than $5,000 in special investigation costs looking into the matter.
“Marion Community Schools is grateful for the assistance of law enforcement officials and the Indiana State Board of Accounts to quickly address concerns regarding suspicious financial transactions discovered by our Business Office in fall 2023. Superintendent Burke also noted that the school system carries the necessary insurance to address such a situation.
