An elementary school principal is under investigation, suspected of inappropriately using her Kansas City, Mo., School District credit card.

Brenda M. Munson, 52, of Kansas City, is the principal at Mount Washington Elementary School at 570 S. Evanston Ave., in Independence, Mo.

Police found 49 boxes of school supplies, two air-conditioners, a desk, a book shelf and two interactive whiteboards with floor stands in a house she owns near East 66th Street and The Paseo, according to a Jackson County, Mo., search warrant.

All of the boxes and the white boards and stands bore address labels to Mount Washington Elementary School, according to the search warrant.

Approached at her home, Munson declined to comment without first speaking to her lawyer.

Police discovered the items when they served the search warrant at the house based on the suspicions of an associate superintendent at the school district.

The school official was reviewing principals' credit card disbursements and found a food purchase on her school-district issued credit card that he determined to be against policy, according to the search warrant.

He determined that other items had been "inappropriately purchased," including two Nintendo Wii game consoles, a water filtration system and videos, according to the search warrant.

Furniture, including a desk and book case, were purchased using her district-issued credit card, and her maintenance man told the associate superintendent that she told him to pick up a desk at the store, take it to the school and then take it to a house she owns at East 66th Street and The Paseo, according to the search warrant.

The associate superintendent then went to the house and saw two air-conditioning boxes through a window with shipping labels to the elementary school and confirmed they had been purchased with her credit card, according to the search warrant.

"It's important to us that the community know that this is about the children, the kids," said Cynthia Wheeler-Linden, a school district spokeswoman.

Munson has been suspended from her job. She's worked at the school for the last three years.

Regarding that, Wheeler-Linden said it was a human resources manner.

Asked if the district had the budget for Wii game consoles, Wheeler-Linden said it did not.

"Those items that are school district property belong in the hands of the school," Wheeler-Linden said. "They belong to the students. They belong to the taxpayers."
