Pencader! Are You Serious???

From the Pencader Wire -
Seriously, the school has a budget problem, low enrollment, and is fighting for its life!  So the Board of Directors decides to host a planning meeting and buy refreshments at the local Seasons Pizza?  This has to be a joke!  If not, is some of worse judgement calls I have ever seen.
Good evening. The Pencader Board would to invite you to a Formal Review Workshop, February 6, 2013 at 6:00pm. We are holding a meeting in Newark at the Seasons Pizza-Bear on Pulaski Highway in their 2nd floor banquet room.

I have attached the agenda for the workshop and would greatly appreciate any input from students, parents and staff. We hope to see you there. Refreshments will be served.

Have a wonderful evening.

Do you know who is paying for the refreshments?

Maybe they should have done this before they submitted such a poor response to the preliminary report which then resulted in the final report recommending revocation....Now they are concerned? In light of Super Bowl week, this is truly worthy of a Come on Man response!

What does that mean on the agenda "allotting time for Frank McIntosh to speak longer"
Don't public hearings have set times to speak? The one for Newark charter did last year. I think it was either 2 or 3 mins depending on whether you were with a group or speaking as an individual.
