Looks like the "professional educators" in San Diego are as mathematically challenged as those in San Fran.
"While schools have taken cuts year after year, those cuts have often fallen short of predicted pain, as the state and feds change their plans.
For instance, two years ago San Diego Unified pegged its deficit at $63 million. That ballooned to $147 million, then to $180 million. But the number ultimately dropped to $90 million. One school board member called it baffling. The year before that, the school district warned nearly 1,000 teachers that their jobs were on the chopping block, and ended up sparing most of them."
Or maybe the educators are plating games with the public, to get more bonds passed and higher taxes? Seems to me that is the real reason to run failing school districts at high prices.
At least they are honest. "Everyone knew the budget was going to blow open," said San Diego Unified school board President Richard Barrera. "It was a fake budget."
why is this guy still on the Board? Why isn't he and his colleagues in jail for fraud and misappropriation of tax dollars?
Fake budget are the order of the day for government--that is why California is in a Depression, and local agencies are bankrupt.
Would you allow your CEO to run a business and admit his budget is "fake"?
