The DOE and a testing company involved with fraud?!! And, all this while there’s constant talk of budget cutting?

Integral school aides laid off, after school programs slashed, arts programs lessened?

Wow, Bloomberg and the DOE are really doing wonders for the kids.

End Mayoral Control.
Forget Christinne Quinn.
Dump John King.

John Lui for Mayor.

Were any schools closed because of this? Was the failure to improve considered in the closings? Not for nothin’ but who at the DOE can even spell accountability?

Disgusting.

Not just Princeton Review. I mean the lack of accountability of the “accountability” crowd. Who in DOE was responsible for monitoring this contract? And why did it take so long to uncover?

More fraud under Bloomberg’s watch.

this doesn’t even qualify as the tip of the iceberg. Until a thorough, contract by contract investigation is done of the Schools Construction Authority (SCA) all you will get is tidbits. The bulk of the fraud is institutionalized down to a science. Simple investigate ANY in school project-ie-computer rooms, hardware or software upgrades, library remodels, etc etc -anything–get the picture

Hey, now cut it out! We all know that it was the teachers’ fault!!! Princeton Review would never falsify records, Bloomberg did a thorough investigation and found no wrongdoing and he felt no need to disclose the results of the investigation to the ignorant public. Come on now people, you must stop questioning the Emperor and his business associates. I mean really!!!!!! However, it will be necessary to close another dozen schools and layoff 1,000 teachers to cover some remaining expenses. No biggie.
