Nothing is sadder than the passing of a friend. For many of us, we lost a friend when George "Mick" Ackley passed away this last week. Mick, thanks so much for the flowers, the support and the jokes. Introduce yourself to my mom, Nelly, one of these days you're kicking around in Heaven! She'll think you're a riot!

Mick's obituary and funeral notice.

I'll put something in the forsaken spot soon--just let me think about it a moment...or more

Folks,

The good news is there is tons of “how to” information to help us in our fight and focus our efforts.  The bad news is, there is tons of “how to” information on corrupt school districts, boards and superintendents.  The ugly news is, this is starting to look like a nasty trend.  It was bound to happen.  Too much money flows through school districts for the criminal and the stupid to not take notice.

You want to talk about Deja Vu?   Check this blog out  from the Capistrano Unified School District.  If you have the time, go back to early 2008 at the very least.  I have been mesmerized to say the least.  

 Here is the video link   from yesterday that is from the Emmy Award Winning Series “Full Disclosure”.  It is part of the media exposure of the fight to regain integrity and fiscal transparency in the Capistrano Unified School District.  

This blog is from Santa Barbara and was sent to me from Jinkt’s.  It has a ton of useful info and again, has the same goal as we.

An article entitled California’s Affluent Schools Ooze Corruption from  Human Events  is super interesting and again, covers the Capistrano mess as well as others.   Interestingly, we’re nowhere near “affluent” status but the shell game is the same.

An Interview With Armand Fusco: About School Corruption   from Ednews .  His online manual  on finding and proving school corruption is a primer for those of us working to expose corruption in our school district.  It comes from The Yankee Institute .   I will spend much time this weekend reading and pondering steps.

There is so much more but let’s get going on these, shall we?

    As I was looking through the CUSD blog, I thought they had some very cool humorous pieces along with the “meat”. Just like us!

    I would like to see the salaries for the top administration jobs including consultants for SUSD for the last two years for comparison.

    For Capistrano USD: 87 top administration jobs = $12 million (I put in 70K for the 11 program/autism specialists jobs) for 2007-08. Quite a chunk of change.

    And people are always complaining about TEACHER salaries!
