If you missed the twitter action, then you need to know - The NCS expansion went absolutely nowhere today. No win can be declared for either side. The Sec. of Ed. offered no recommendation and the state board of education voted to table until their April meeting.
In the last couple of hours, parties on every side have been trying to piece together the message this lack of action means - from debating whether the state is violating their own charter approval process with regard to exceeding the 90 day provision in the law to whether or not the Sec. should have considered the ACLU letter that was submitted after the close of public comment on the application.
It's the waiting game, again. At least for the public at large, as the News Journal is reporting that NCS School Leader, Greg Meece has said that the Sec. contacted him this morning and advised him that NCS parents could stand down, there would be no vote today. Real bummer for the general public/constituents who spent three hours in Dover waiting for this vote!
It's a major system failure for Transparency and State Government.
