  2. Back Street Grille owes a lot of its success to the County government/Bd of Ed. Unbelievable!!

  3. I am done with Rick Pollitt. A strong executive would have come public and demanded answers from the boe but he has remained silent. I will cast my vote for Bob Culver instead.

  4. " ask this question of the BOE."

    No answers will be forthcoming when questions to the BOE are asked on a blog. FOIA is the tool to use when questions have not been answered, AFTER first writing a letter or appearing in person before the BOE

    Soooo....when will you folks actually appear at the BOE meetings requesting answers to questions, or write a letter to Central Office, or attend the Superintendent's monthly Open Door Policy.

    26 weeks is half a year or 6 months. That alone suggest you folks writing on here are all mouth. just trying to stir up crap, and actually don't give a rat's butt about the BOE spending. If I am wrong, prove it. The BOE's next meeting is Tues 10/14 and Dr Fredericksen will hold his next Open Door Policy on Weds. 10/15.

  5. Are copies of the individual receipts available under the Freedom of Information Act?

  6. anon 9:29am you are correct a county executive with a backbone would have put a stop to this a long time ago. But what you need to remember Pollitt is just as guilty as these people are.

  7. Come on Board Of Ed. give us the information.Time to man up.

  8. To those of you attempting to make comments attacking the NAMES on this list, I've rejected those comments because you obviously haven't been following our information closely enough.

    These are NOT the people spending the money. They are the people who the cards are assigned to and it is their boss/bosses who are spending it.

  9. Well what really jumped out at me this week was on June 10, 2011

    Green Turtle $ 755.11
    Brew River 864.40
    $1,619.51

    So where did the party start? Brew River and then continued the party over at Green Turtle.

    Unbelievable.

  11. To Mary
    You all complain about this info coming out on the blog do you think anyone will get any truth at a BOE meeting. Well the BOE members cannot even get the truth so.

  12. If there was fraudulent purchases going in, don't you think the State would be asking questions. Especially since 75 percent of the BOE budget comes from them?
