MARYSVILLE — The state superintendent’s office placed the Marysville School District under “enhanced financial oversight” on Wednesday, the latest step in the state’s efforts to correct the yearslong financial turmoil in Marysville schools.

Enhanced financial oversight is the final step the state takes before the district is dissolved, staff at the state superintendent’s office said.

Chris Reykdal, the state superintendent of public instruction, notified the district in a letter addressed to Marysville Superintendent Zachary Robbins.

“I have lost confidence that the district has the decision-making tools or current personnel necessary to fix its financial situation on their own,” Reykdal wrote. “Despite being faced with significant financial challenges, the district has shown it is unwilling and unable to take appropriate steps or accept responsibility for the current situation.”
