“A state-by-state audit of the nation’s only database for tracking teacher misconduct is being ordered in the wake of a USA TODAY NETWORK investigation that found thousands of missing names in the listing of troublesome educators.
Education agencies in every state voluntarily report to a privately run database operated by the non-profit National Association of State Directors of Teacher Education and Certification when they take a disciplinary action against a teacher for anything from minor infractions to serious cases of physical or sexual abuse.”
