How much is this money was spent on McCasey's trips to Europe to "study" how this event was put on successfully (which was clearly a waste)? I attended this event and the lack of advertising/signage/organization was an embarrassment to the city. McCasey makes $200k and is the man in charge. He needs to stop making excuses and take responsibility for his failed assignment.

Will they put it in a to-go coffee cup so I can bring it to work?

Would you agree your initial statement {They are currently co-locating with Sac Charter to help defray the cost of the facility for the charter school which clearly cannot afford the site." } was misleading? Charter schools pay rent on the square footage they utilize. Whether or not a school is co-located has no effect on their cost.

Perfect example of how Shields throws out statements that are not based on fact. " The MET is growing and has a small campus by Southside Park. They are currently co-locating with Sac Charter to help defray the cost of the facility for the charter school which clearly cannot afford the site." The MET is currently co-locating with Sac Charter becuase the district is in the middle of a $6.9 million renovation and is unsuitable for use. http://www.sacbee.com/2011/07/16/3773423/the-met-sacramento-high-school.html

If SCUSD has to close schools due to decreased funding, how would they be able to pay for a new comprehensive high school? Especially when enrollment if down throughout the district. This does not make fiscal sense.
