Monday night's Omaha Public Schools board meeting focused on addressing communications breakdowns in light of the results of a December audit.
Communication has been a hot topic within the school district all year, from busing problems to the search for a new superintendent, to dealing with parents.

One of the strengths touted in the audit: diversity.
