What nepotism???

August 20, 2008 - The Bethlehem Area School Board approved a new nepotism form that requires a job applicant to declare a relationship with an elected official or existing employee before their employment.

And then they voted -- to hire the school board president's daughter and a relative of another school director. The board president and school director abstained from the vote.

TT - We wondered at the $60,670 legal bill for the district's internal investigation into the work habits of drug-dealing ex-principal John Acerra. The investigation "which also led to new district policies aimed at encouraging employees to report unusual behavior by superiors." made us curious enough to ask, "Why would you need a new policy aimed at encouraging employees to report "unusual behavior" unless they didn't report it in the past?"
