On Tuesday, January 12, 2009, the Board of Education will spend an hour of their meeting reviewing the Deputy's Minority Achievement Advisory Council(DMAAC) report.

Previously, the Parents' Coalition obtained credit card logs for the Deputy Superintendent's office through Maryland Public Information Act requests.  In the credit card logs obtained the notation "DMAAC" was seen frequently.  These charges were detailed in prior Parents' Coalition blog articles here and here.

Here is a summary of food purchases that were charged to "DMAAC" during the period from March 2007 to March 2008 as found on the credit card logs obtained by the Parents' Coalition.
