Just one correction (not that it matters for the school but rather to ensure accuracy).<br /><br />CJACS had it's original board disbanded by the DOE and nothing to do with the establishment of a not-for-profit "Friends of CJACS" entity with its own board of trustees. Many schools, traditional and otherwise, have such entities (mostly called "Educational Associations" to assist in fund-raising and school support.<br /><br />CJAC's own Board of Trustees was ordered to disband by the DOE charter office due to mismanagement and other irregularities, at which time the current management company - Renaissance School Services (RSS)- was approved to "run" the school.<br /><br /><br />Originally CJAC's was founded by a mother / daughter team. Cora Coney was president of the Board. Her daughter, Shamida Coney was a secretary and an "arts coordinator" - a title approved by the Board (interesting??). Though she did not possess any teaching or school administrator credentials. Shamida's salary was greater than all teaching staff members.<br /><br />RSS's management contract was approved by the DOE during the time Mr. Cerf was NJ Commissioner of Education. There is an interesting point here that may bear investigating further by a reporter.<br /><br />RSS rose from the ashes of another charter management company called Edison, which went defunct years ago. Mr. Cerf was one of the chief staff members of that defunct company. What was the relationship between Mr. Cerf and the new RSS? Anyone wish to investigate further?<br /><br />This is just the tip of an iceberg. However, the iceberg has finally been tipped over and is dissolving - and will disappear on June 30. Unfortunate for those who already wasted their educational lives here. Fortunate for everyone else who will never get that chance to fail.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-71248292457286595922015-03-17T13:34:07.224-04:002015-03-17T13:34:07.224-04:00This will surely improve traffic.This will surely improve traffic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-36976827160932682002015-03-16T21:17:51.615-04:002015-03-16T21:17:51.615-04:00GO GREEN!!!

It was reported that Stender's husband registered to vote in Monmouth County in August, 2013, but voted in Union County in November, 2013. Moreover, he claims to be a resident of Monmouth County. Doesn't his voting in Union County under those circumstances become a matter of voter fraud- that elusive crime Republicans are always talking about but never seem able to discover?
