Kingston School Board, $40,000 for meetings?


I have read on other blogs that members of the Kingston School Board may have spent $40,000 on meetings at the Mohonk Mountain House this summer. These meetings could have been held in their school cafeteria and catered locally.

That's a lot of money. That's more than some people make in a year. That's money that could have been used for the children.

If this is true, it needs to be exposed and that's why I'm writing about it.

People need to stand up and shine the light on things. John Stossel from 20/20 is not going to come up here and do any investigative reporting. The local newpapers all rip and read from press releases, they don't do any actual investigative reporting.

School Boards are really only accountable to the people, and if people don't stand up and say THAT'S WRONG, they will continue to do whatever they want.

If I'm wrong about this, and this was just an internet rumor that I fell pray to, then as Emily Latilla would say on SNL.... nevermind

Please stand up and ask questions about this!

I think it's reeeediculous.

Someone needs to get to the bottom of this.

Why isn't Blaber screaming about it?
