Is the following a form of dishonesty on the part of the school?

This distance-learning school claims to be a member of a certain international academic organization . But after checking with the said organization, I found out that the school’s membership have expired years ago. Just last week, the organization informed me that they have requested the school to remove the questioned information from its website. To date, however, the school has not yet acted on this request.

Can the school’s action or inaction qualify as a form of dishonesty or should we give the school the benefit of the doubt?

(By the way, the school is government-recognized/accredited.)
