The Book of Klein

The following photos were taken of the financial book that is left on the table at School Board meetings. This book is never to leave the library. Is this where we get the expression, "Getting everything out on the table?" The point to this post is that the numbers are available, just not shared openly.

Contrary to Elaine Cappucci's response to Dan Remely, there is an itemized list of change orders. Why it isn't on the District website is beyond me. The community must rely on "the blogs" for this information.

Another little bit of information that I found interesting is that Terrance Kushner, the Owner's Liaison, earned $3185. I wonder what happened to him. High School Renovation Summary

The following Google Docs are for the "pundits whose analysis of anything is so tedious that eyes glaze over." God bless the pundits who explain everything to the school board directors.
