A superintendent's resignation. Honestly?

It has become the rule rather than the exception: City manager or executive director or superintendent of schools "resigns" following closed-door meetings with his or her elected bosses.

I would like to know WHERE the 231,000.00 payout comes from since they say it is not from public funds.. What account/fund program does the payout come from?

@confused parent, come to the MVWSD board meeting this Thursday March 12 and demand that the trustees answer your question! there will be many of us there who are also confused and disgusted.

What part of the funds used to operate a public school system are not public funds?

Unless that $231k came as a gift from the personal checking accounts of the members of the board, which I doubt, it came from our pockets.
