California Education Department Issues Cease-and-Desist to Chinese School Over Misleading Claims
The California Department of Education has issued a cease-and-desist letter to Pegasus California School, a private high school in Qingdao, China, following claims that the school was founded with the support of the department. The school, which promises admittance to top U.S. universities, was previously investigated for fraud and misappropriation of funds. The audit by the Riverside County Office of Education found evidence of illegal fiscal practices and referred the findings to authorities. Pegasus had claimed on its website that it offers authentic California education, which led to the cease-and-desist letter from the California Department of Education.
