    Just remember, they care about the impoverished kids.

    Well, that's what they say.

    Here's the bet if she doesn't go to prison I get 22,000 bucks

    I believe she was either using the extra rooms for her family or for swinging. Ive gone to many conferences and conventions over the years and usually when people rent extra rooms its for family members or more often, to host swinging parties or so they can pick up a lover for the weekend and not reveal their actual room number to them. I never did this myself but I am aware of this because its so common. One of the local principals used to swing by herself at conferences (big scandal) and did the same thing. Her husband unalived himself when the scandal came out.

    Another person that is not qualified for the job. Just wanted to take advantage of the situation. Visiting places that she would not have . A Thief!

    First these schools are run by crooks. The whole board is payed way to much, when schools does not even pay for supplies! When the person paid the lowest is footing the bill there is a huge problem! People like this women get away with this, because no one pays attention. There is no oversight. It give the narcissistic selves control. Tax payer need more control of every dang penny spent. They also need to demand the student comes first on the chain of spending, not the superintendent. Time to take over public ed!

    Time 453 " There is no rational that can be used to explain the excess" Did she look at a picture of the Superintendent?

    Okay? You don’t pay teachers but get mad when they have to dig into funds for their job. Got it.

    The truth is there are a whole lot of people that are addicted to traveling and will use legitimate work related travel to add on their personal travel. They need to find out who was staying in those rooms. Spouse or who other special someone.
