Resident demands correction after district mailer claims $17,753 per-student spending
Summary
A resident said a district mailer reported an inaccurate per-student spending figure of $17,753 and asked the superintendent to correct the record in the next bulletin; the superintendent said he would attempt to make a correction if deadlines allow.
During the second public-comment period, Lawrence Flynn challenged the accuracy of a recent district mailer that reported a per-student spending figure of $17,753. Flynn said the district’s own budget figures were available and demanded a correction in the district bulletin.
"We have a $17,753 per student," Flynn said, calling the mailer "blatantly dishonest" and urging an explicit correction. Superintendent said he would look into whether a correction could be issued, noting publication deadlines might already have passed but that he would attempt to correct the record in future communications.
