More reasons not to vote for Cappucci

There is that little thing about her son being hired as a social studies teacher at Jefferson Middle School and no trace of why the job posting was altered nine months after Elaine Cappucci's son was hired. Keep in mind that Elaine had to resign from the school board because of the nepotism policy and is now running to replace herself, as well as seeking another four year term.

Please listen to Paula's comments on nepotism, as well as Elaine's "rebuttal" from Monday's school board meeting. The school board meeting video is available here. Paula begins at 1:30:57. Elaine begins at 1:38:33. The clip can be viewed here.

Besides her belligerent demeanor during Comments or Questions from Residents or Taxpayers at the October 9, 2017 school board meeting, I wanted to share a little more background on Elaine Cappucci's bio from the CCRB campaign website.
I was part of the team that negotiated the current Act 93 agreement for our District administrators.
That is not something I would be proud of, especially with what has been revealed with Jan Klein's creative accounting in recent days. The Act 93 Agreement can be found here. You can read about Jan Klein's salary adjustment here. Twenty MTLSD administrators received salary increases Please take the time to read the comments in that 2012 post. We were complaining about Jan's sloppy bookkeeping five years ago!

Elaine Cappucci is part of the Million Dollar Heist also known as the Century of Excellence Campaign Committee. Mary Birks likes to refer to it as a 100 year plan. Since Timmy doesn't have an original thought, Elaine has a major role as Timmy's key Key Communicator.

You vote for Elaine Cappucci, it is job security for Janice Klein and Timothy Steinhauer!

Creative Accounting

Over on Lebodesign.net, Dan Rothschild posted Raiding The Pantry. After reviewing "THE LIST" of 197 cuts to the project, this architect feels that "the Board may also be misusing the process of Add Alternates and Deduct Alternates in their quest to come under the $113 million requirement."
If you watched or listened to Monday's School Board meeting, Dan questioned where the $900,000 is coming from to pay for the food service equipment that was cut (#187A.) Good question.  It comes from Jan Klein's bag of tricks.  After all, the directors are being told by Ms. Klein that they "should" still be able to do this project without needed referendum.
Larry, are you still excited that Celli is excited, even after all this input?
