Jen Taylor at Wootton HS.
Jen is such a great person. She is the guidance counselor without equal at Wootton HS in Rockville, the Student Government Association Sponsor, and she has a connection with BBYO! So - she decided to use all these talents and agreed to run the big Tuned In Concert at Wootton High School on April 28, 2012. Look at the signatures - all appear to be from BBYO.
Phil Hill? He's the Wootton Business Manager, but that's not his signature below the line listing him as the contact. Looks like the same signature from BBYO.
BBYO signed all the contracts - thus skipping that annoying provision of MCPS policies requiring that all contracts over $25,000 be approved by the Board of Education. Just send the invoices over to Wootton.
Don't you wish you could spend money and just send the invoice to someone else?
Note that this blogger asked for copies of all contracts and agreements involving the concert - and was not supplied with any agreement between BBYO and MCPS. Jen is also creative - don't sign anything but the checks.
But - is this really a school supported activity or just a sham to let BBYO use the facilities and let Wootton HS front the facilities?
What a great lesson in civic disengagement we are teaching the kids. Thanks MCPS and the Board of Education for turning a truly blind eye!
