The office of the former headquarters for Indiana Virtual School and Indiana Virtual Pathways Academy was on East 96th Street in Indianapolis. Attorney General Todd Rokita sued the schools, multiple venders that provided services to them, and 14 individuals with ties to the schools or the companies that were inappropriately paid. The lawsuit is based on the findings from an investigation released by the State Board of Accounts last year. The review found that the two schools reported thousands more students than actually attended classes. As a result, they inappropriately collected more than $68 million in state funds. The schools also paid more than $85 million in public funds to companies that had links to school officials and their family members, the audit found.
