investigation uncovers federal probe into Ohio cha...

CLEVELAND - An exclusive 5 On Your Side investigation revealed a federal probe into Ohio charter schools involving a money trail of illegal immigration fees, as well as other payments to individuals living overseas. Concept Schools operate 16 Horizon Science Science Academies across Ohio. One of its schools in Cleveland was recently named a US Department of Education "Blue Ribbon" school for excellence in education. The program was founded in Cleveland by Turkish educators in 1999 and now includes schools in Ohio and four other states. "Our schools are public charter schools. They're not Turkish schools, they're not Islamic schools. They provide a high quality education," said Salim Ucan, Vice President of Concept Schools. Yet, the US Department of Labor opened an ongoing investigation into a Cleveland school in 2008 that involves the use of H1-B visas issued by the US government to foreign workers if they provide "specialized services" in the United States. Federal investigators asked Horizon Science Academy Denison, in Cleveland, for all its H1-B visa documentation. US Immigration records showed 53 H-1B visas were issued to Horizon Schools statewide in 2008 and 2009. Our investigation also reviewed 10 years of financial audits performed by state auditors. Auditors found immigration fees and legal fees for school officials' families and others living in Turkey. In some cases, auditors found payments were made to individuals who were never employed by any of the schools ...

CLEVELAND - An exclusive 5 On Your Side investigation into a chain of Ohio charter schools has sparked a strong reaction from an Ohio lawmaker who is calling for stronger oversight into how Ohio charter schools spend taxpayer funds. The report revealed that some Horizon Science Academy schools across Ohio used nearly $13000 of taxpayer money for immigration and legal fees for teachers recruited overseas -- many of them from Turkey. State auditors found some who received immigration and legal fees were never employed at the schools. In 2008 and 2009, immigration records show at least 53 H-1B immigration visas were issued to Horizon Schools. School officials said the number of visas has been declining over the years and that this year, only 51 of 596 employees are international teachers, most of whom are Turkish. In addition, the US Department of Labor opened a continuing investigation into immigration visas at one Horizon Science School in Cleveland on Dennison Avenue. The Ohio Federation of Teachers has criticized the practice of hiring teachers overseas, while ignoring Ohio teachers who it said are qualified. School officials insisted they simply could not find enough math and science teachers here in Ohio and were forced to look overseas. State representative Matt Lundy (D) of Ohio's 57th District has been an advocate for charter school oversight in the state legislature. "I think taxpayers have every right to be upset that these dollars are actually going to pay for ...
