Tis the season . . . Santa says, “Ho, Ho, Ho” . . . and Sroka says, “Ha, Ha, Ha” to FC taxpayers.


Things you will more than likely find hanging on the FC Business Manager’s Christmas tree:

Due to the inaction of the FC School Board, FC Business Manager Paul Sroka maintains possession of the district’s corporate Amex card.

Will FC taxpayers foot the bill for Sroka’s merry Christmas?

The board can do right by the taxpayers and initiate an independent investigation and forensic audit of the finances of the district; or, the board can hide behind Dinnen’s botched “investigation” of the credit account takeover by Sroka.

Which will it be???

--------------------

Dinnen's contract is set to expire at the end of this school year.  

The board has three choices:

1) Do nothing and let the contract roll into another 5 years of Dinnen being in charge, thus having no positive change to the district.  Keep in mind Dinnen has not been truthful with the board and taxpayers.

2) Open the superintendent position and contract and interview other (and surely superior) candidates for the position.  This would give the Board the opportunity to improve the contract, striking the many taxpayer funded personal perks (money that could be better used for programs for the students).

3) Allow Dinnen to retire.  Caution with this choice!
This must be done with a written agreement from Dinnen stating that he will retire early or at the end of the school year.  Without this in writing by the January 27th meeting, the board has no guarantee that Dinnen will retire, and the board will miss the opportunity to open the position in accordance with policy and the terms of Dinnen's current contract.  (A full copy of Dinnen’s contract can be found here:  http://www.fortcherry.org/Page/9)
The contract should be opened this month regardless of any promises from Dinnen to retire.
