State Audit Again Flags Thrive Academy’s Contract Approval Practices

Thrive Academy Baton Rouge

Thrive Academy has received a recurring state audit finding involving its contract approval practices.

The Baton Rouge charter school was cited after vendor work was authorized before the contracts received state approval, according to the audit.

The issue has now appeared in three consecutive reviews of the school. The repeated finding places continued attention on the school’s procedures for obtaining approval before work by vendors begins.

The audit identified the authorization sequence for vendor work; the supplied report did not provide additional details on the contracts involved.
