Points of Information

Here are some new items to think about.

- It appears that Bill Bush is still on the Board because he wants to start a charter school management company. Seriously. He actually told board members, administrators and a few community members this. He is doing such a great job with Graystone, that he (along with Nancy Cooper) wants to establish a company that will open and run charter schools based on all of the success they had at Graystone, and let's not forget, with all his real estate experience, build buildings for these new schools. They were working on it last spring/summer, but decided that they could coop Graystone to start. And, they are the first to say that he is an unpaid volunteer.

- Prediction: Former teacher rep to the Board and current lead teacher, Nancy Cooper will get named to an administrative position before the school year is out. If that happens...the teachers, who choose to stay, will contact the PSEA. Many are shocked that the union is not here already.

- Has anyone, CASD or an independent auditor, looked at Bill Bush's reimbursements? Has anyone questioned his reimbursements for legal expenses, evening "emergency meeting" dinners with the former administrative assistant? Dinner/Lunch meetings with the other real estate agents? What is the process for justifying expenditures beyond - I say so? Just because an expenditure may be "legal" is it ethical and worthy of tax dollars?

- There is CASD meeting tonight. (Tuesday, APRIL 27, 2010 - 7:00 PM
9/10 CENTER AUDITORIUM) One of the reasons CASD has not been aggressive with GASD is the lack of a voice from the GACS community. Coatesville needs to see that people care. We need you to be there.
