CLAYTON COUNTY, Ga. -- A state judge recommended Wednesday that Gov. Sonny Perdue remove four members of the Clayton County school board.
Judge Michael M. Malihi said, "It is the recommendation of this court that Sandra Scott, Lois Baines-Hunter, A. Michelle Strong, and Yolanda Everett be removed from their positions as members of the Clayton County Board of Education."

Malihi said they should be removed for violating the state's open meetings act and the ethics code.
The judge's recommendation comes just a day before the National Accreditation Commission reveals if Clayton County's schools will stay accredited. The commission will vote Wednesday night and the results will be announced Thursday. Losing accreditation could put students in jeopardy of not gaining admission to many colleges and not getting scholarships.
