The Oakland Unified School District revoked the charters for American Indian Model Schools (AIMS) due to several significant issues. An independent audit revealed evidence of conflict of interest, misappropriation of funds, and questionable business transactions. The audit found approximately $3.8 million in questionable expenditures of public money, which included improper business contracts, inappropriate credit card usage, and potential self-dealing by the founder, Dr. Ben Chavis. The district's superintendent recommended revocation, leading to a 4-3 board vote to revoke the charters. AIMS was given the opportunity to convince the county board of education to overturn the decision, but the financial mismanagement and ethical concerns were too severe, leading to the eventual revocation of their charters. The case is documented in various sources, including legal case reports and news articles from the time.
