As the Chair of the Portland Public Schools Board, he oversaw the award of a $62 million contract to Texas consulting firm, Procedeo. The contract is for the management of $1.5 billion. This money is for the rebuild of Cleveland, Ida B. Wells, and Jefferson High Schools, as well as the Center for Black Excellence.

Wang oversaw the discussion of the contract, refused to allow dissenting voices to speak and has shown no interest in monitoring the contract. <\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

A recent audit found:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. The district has overpaid the consultant more than $700,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. There was favoritism and bias in the way the board selected Procedeo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. The contract disproportionately favors the contractor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. The school board did not adequately scrutinize the contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Wang oversaw the discussion of the contract, refused to allow dissenting voices to speak and has shown no interest in monitoring the contract.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
