North Atlanta High School
ATLANTA -- Atlanta Public Schools are looking into allegations of possible grade changing at North Atlanta High School.
District spokesman Stephen Alford confirmed the open investigation to Thursday afternoon to 11Alive News.
North Atlanta High was at the center of controversy earlier this month, when Superintendent Erroll Davis abruptly removed the high school's principal, Mark MyGrant, and four other administrators. MyGrant has already submitted his retirement and was to serve as acting principal until late October. The other administrators have been re-assigned to other schools.
Students, upset with the abrupt changes, walked out of class in protest on October 10, a day after Superintendent Erroll Davis addressed parents and teachers about the changes. Davis said he made the decision to improve sub-par school performance.

North Atlanta's new principal, Dr. Gene Taylor, will take over the school on October 29. Taylor had previously been a principal in the Gwinnett County Schools.
APS spokesman Steve Alford told 11Alive's Blayne Alexander Thursday that the investigation is being conducted by the APS Office of Internal Compliance, and that the investigation could cover a "wide range of issues," possibly including students, teachers or principals. He declined to elaborate further, citing the open investigation.
North Atlanta High School parent Julie Salisbury described her response to the investigation a "mixed bag of feelings."
"It came as a shock. My first reaction was 'oh no, not one more thing,'" she said.
But, she stressed, she is grateful "that we currently have an administration that takes even allegations of impropriety seriously, as opposed to ignoring them."
Alford did not say when the investigation began, or when it might conclude.
