School Board comprises 4-3 African American to Caucasian, and vote without fail down racila lines, regardless of the issue. Even selected Superindentant and other employees along racial lines. Newly elected Board members have traveled and been paid to do so 300% more than the previous year once they learned. Boar Members go to numerous conferences an upgrade there rooms to luxury suites at the expense to the taxpayer. Recently attended Inauguration, but unknown at this time at who's expense. We want to look at a recall an know what the Statue requires, but need to find others who have successfully recalled, and on what issues.

Check out Noozhawk.com (Click School Zone and read about the Special Education Director and the Superintendent.) Check out the comments!!! We've got a full-blown parent-teacher civil rights movement and an uprising.

There is a School-Politico-Industrial Complex---and unholy alliance between the schools, Juvenile Justice and law enforcement, and 47 non-profit agencies that are feeding at the Public Funding Trough.

We have a videographer that is capturing the humorless arrogance, illusory prestige, brute force, and primeval studpidity of the board and administrators.

Read "Dismantling the School to Prison Pipeline" at naacp.org. The Truancy and Parent Accountability Program started here with our Machiavellian COE Superintendent, Bill Cirone. Institutionalized racism! Systematic and systemic violations of state and federal law.

Please contact me so we can get our information to you.

All of the same issues go on here also. Just a different scale. Lavish Administrators retreats across the country, big raises for the bosses while para-educators are laid off.

We need the County or State to audit (as far back as possible) CUSD to determine how all these public funds were sent. The DA should be looking for misuse of public funds by the District and the trustees.
