Sometimes, reality is stranger – and funnier – than fiction.C&E 1st responds -
Pencader Charter’s leader, who got her doctorate from a notorious diploma mill, was told that three of her teachers were double-dipping (receiving state pensions and salaries).
She pretended to fire them, but actually retained them as “independent contractors.”
One of the teachers flouting the law this way was her husband, who got paid a whopping $6,450 a month (of taxpayer money) to teach one single class.
The subject?
“Morals and ethics”!
One can only laugh.

Though the irony is not lost on the masses, there is nothing funny about the gravity of the situation at Pencader. Its deeply disturbing when any school's reputation is driven into the ground. As we all know from the Moyer Charter Debacle, schools in this situation are often left to whist in the wind. Will this too become Pencader's legacy? There are good people out there who want to help Pencader. The question that remains is will Pencader accept their assistance or continue business as usual? No pun intended.

I think we all know the answer to this question, unfortunately.
