A FRIEND INDEED

 Lynn has $1.6M list of school fixes


Is this god of newsprint writing right and I am just reading it wrong or writing about a wrong that  I'm reading right? Either way somebody is possibly breaking some laws whether financial or journalistic

Let's look at this:

 State educators warned School Superintendent Catherine Latham last December that Lynn schools had fallen $1.6 million short of meeting the requirement.

This must have been about two months after that fateful night the SPED coffers were raided to create a new DEPUTY SUPERINTENDENT and TWO NEW CONFIDENTIAL SECRETARIES and all those PERKS.  That would not be the end of the fiscal mismanagement, no, no it wouldn't. First our Superintendent got a $25,000 raise and double digit raises for most of her princiPALS and promotions for others. You know, especially the ones who testified on the good doctor's behalf at the PUBLIC HEARING about whether we should post the superintendent's position for competitive bid to insure we had the best qualified person in that position.

Fear not DR. LATHAM, JUGGLING JUDY is flush with FREE CASH and will come to your rescue:

 State educators warned School Superintendent Catherine Latham last December that Lynn schools had fallen $1.6 million short of meeting the requirement.

I guess the chorus of administration official can stop working on their rendition of "WORKING ON A CHAIN GANG" with CATHE in the lead, rocking the mike or pounding rocks whatever the case may be.

At the special LSC meeting going over DR. LATHAM'S evaluation. the MAYOR raised serious questions about her fiduciary decisions, still she voted to not open up the position for competitive selection. Now it looks like she has to part with some of that FREE CASH that she worked so hard to scrimp and save.

I WONDER IF SHE WOULD VOTE THE SAME WAY AGAIN?
