The East Valley Institute of Technology has filed a motion for judgment on the pleadings in response to a lawsuit filed by nine of its member school districts, including Apache Junction Unified School District.
EVIT’s motion, according to a release, makes clear that the lawsuit is an aggressive and unlawful attempt to:
- Seize control from the statutorily authorized career technical education district
- Eliminate financial oversight and accountability for taxpayer dollars
- Disregard state statute, legislative intent and the Arizona Auditor General’s findings
