The Superintendent of the Los Angeles School District is corrupt. Yup, I said it.
He is the leader of the district.
At the same time he receives $150,000 per year from a vendor to the district.
This is called corruption. When will he be arrested? Maybe the State needs to stop giving money to this openly corrupt district, until all those taking money (in the real world there is another word for this)
"Los Angeles schools Supt. Ramon C. Cortines earned more than $150,000 last year for serving on the board of one of the nation's leading educational publishing companies, a firm with more than $16 million in contracts with the school district over the last five years.
Scholastic Inc. provides the main reading intervention curriculum for the Los Angeles Unified School District, a program that is part of the company's fast-growing educational technology business.
Cortines has disclosed his relationship with the New York-based company, and officials say he has avoided any decisions on Scholastic contracts."
While he may have stopped making decisions on this, his employees know about this. So, are they giving contracts to the firm Cortines is getting $150,000 per year from. All to make themselves more "valuable" to Cortines?
A few weeks ago LAUSD had a partial audit, and they could not find $200 million. This is a district that needs a Trustee that is honest.
