Quote of the Day: State School Board

"This (allegedly had) been going on a number of years, and the system did not detect this. So what we need to do is ensure we design a system that will detect these type of things. If not, I predict this could happen again, and the state is going to be embarrassed."

Randall Mackey, at a meeting of the State School Board

I love how the Deseret News was so kind as to insert parentheses with an 'allegedly' to protect Mr. Mackeys credibility. They should have done one better and had Mackey say "...this could happen again, and the state is (allegedly) going to be embarrassed."

Can districts avoid financial misdeeds?
