After a year-long investigation, the D.C. ethics board has censured former Deputy Mayor of Education Jennifer Niles over her role in a school transfer scandal that led to the resignation of two of the top education officials in the District.

Former schools chancellor Antwan Wilson resigned after it was revealed he bypassed the city’s lottery system to transfer his daughter from Duke Ellington School of the Arts to Wilson High School. According the the D.C. ethics report, the school had a waitlist of 639 students at the time.

The D.C. Board of Ethics and Accountability said following the censure, or formal reprimand, it will “seek no further remedy and take no further action related to the above misconduct.”

Niles reportedly facilitated the transfer, though she denies breaking the law in her testimony to the ethics board. She says she was trying to address the Wilson family’s concerns about the “unresponsiveness of Duke Ellington’s school leadership.”

Niles added she explicitly told a D.C. Public School official to make sure she followed all the rules during the transfer, though the official said she had the “impression” Niles wanted Wilson’s daughter “transferred immediately.”

Notably, the ethics report doesn’t address how much Mayor Muriel Bowser knew about the situation. In a separate report by the Inspector General’s Office, Niles mentioned overhearing a conversation between Bowser and Wilson regarding his daughter’s well-being in her new school.
