LYNN'S LIMBO MUMBO JUMBO

Dear Sirs,

Good morning, my name is Stan Wotring and I have a locally popular blog, LYNN SCHOOL 
WATCH. I have been following the NET SCHOOL SPENDING problems in Lynn with a 
great deal of interest as you might imagine.

After writing all of the school committee members and various other officials I have been 
unable to get a response as to the status of the city's  repayment plan for the $15 million 
plus owed due to failing to meet its obligations. My understanding is that this plan was 
submitted just after the end of last fiscal year. It is also my understanding that there was 
no guarantee of acceptance of the plan without which subjecting the district to potential 
additional fines.


Now it is also my understanding that someone who did get a response from someone in 
the DESE that no decision has yet been made on the status of the plan. I fail to understand 
the delay in making a decision and feel that it is grossly unfair to hold Lynn in limbo. 

The longer you delay only subjects Lynn  to needless uncertainty about its educational 
direction. Of course, if the plan is to ignore the problem and not hold the city to its 
responsibility to the students then you are right on track by being off track. The political 
climate is not ripe for confrontation.

Either way I would appreciate a response I can share with my readers. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Stan
