Iowa's state auditor says Des Moines Public Schools made more than $200,000 in improper payments to a district maintenance and projects specialist and a maintenance contractor. 
The audit report released Wednesday says school funds were used to reimburse contractor Ja-Ra Enterprises for costs of various school repair and construction projects from 2013 to February 2020. 
DMPS said in a release they no longer engage in business with Ja-Ra Enterprises, have  upgraded work order systems to track assets and materials and will conduct a follow-up review.
