I have to tell you that your post scares me. For the past 3+ years that I have been in Asbury I can not understand the school situation. I am not placing blame on a single individual but there is a problem. While I know you are on the board, I do not see much progress. What is the issue here? It is not lack of money. This town is up there as far as the cost per student. From what I see it is a lack of accountability for all. The fighting, accusations etc all is just people pushing blame on to others. Again I not pointing a finger and one person, but if the people running things from the classroom to the board cannot get a direction, goals set and accomplished etc, then new people need to come in. I think it would be a complete embarrassment if the state finds money that should have been spent on education, wasted. It would be an even bigger embarrassment if the state needs to take control.

At the end it says other schools will be looked at in the spring. Will be interesting to see what is found in Asbury. Couldn't agree with you more. The State will be doing meticulous audits in all Abbott districts in which state funds account for more than 80% of budget. So Asbury is on that list. It cannot happen too soon.
