State investigating TUSD over perks from company

State officials are investigating a million-dollar contract between the Tucson Unified School District and a company that makes high-tech "whiteboards," looking into whether the district received inappropriate perks after it awarded the lucrative contract.
State investigators are asking questions about an educational summit and conference the company held in Tucson after receiving the contract that included free lodging at a high-end resort for five TUSD employees and paid positions for four others, according to documents obtained by the Arizona Daily Star and interviews with sources close to the inquiry.
