funding could be found

Flip – K80220000B – Capital Projects (originally, P00220000A was identified, but it

didn’t have enough $ to cover, so they changed to a difference one)

Conference costs and flights for each person were billed to the funds specified

above. We did not receive a refund for Charles’ costs. Apparently there was a bit of

a time crunch to book tickets before prices went up, so “bridge funds” were used

until proper funding could be located. I have not located any records that indicate

that funds were paid back, although it sounds like Accounts Payable staff are

working on it right now.

I will begin the process of locating and gathering your other requested records. Due

to the current workload of relevant staff, I anticipate I’ll have records ready for you

by Thursday, Aug 28, if not sooner.

Thanks,

Julie

Subject: Public disclosure request

Dear Julie,

I would like to make a public disclosure request for the following items. I

realize it is a lot so I highlighted in red the priority items.

- what funding source each of the following internal codes are attached to (I

found these codes in e-mails about the Pre-k mission study in early March2014). There were five people scheduled to go on this trip - Charles Wright, Jr.

Keisha Scarlett, Laura Morrison, Cashel Toner and Flip Herndon.

Scarlett and Morrison seemed to have been funded thru LEV grant money forSouth Shore. Here are the billing codes for those funds.

- NSX7927S40 This appears to be a code that is assigned to South Shore's

funding thru LEV. Could you specifically tell me the name of the fund and howmuch money was taken out for this trip (for both Keisha Scarlett and LauraMorrison)?

- NSX79207S50 - Also appears to be a South Shore fund via LEV. Was moneytaken from this fund to be used for the trip? If so, how much and for whom?

The following codes were also referenced but I don't know if it was for Wright,

Toner or Herndon (all or singly). Could you let me know if either of these fundswas used?

- 2710 K80220000B - this is referenced in one e-mail as a "cost center" - what

is this fund and how much was used for this trip and for whose travel?- P00220000A - this is referenced in one e-mail as a "cost center" - what is thisfund and how much was used for this trip and for whose travel?

It was also referenced in e-mails that Herndon was going to use Facilities

dollars for his trip costs (registration and airfare). Could you let me know whatFacilities cost center this came out of and how much was spent?

- I also note that Deputy Superintendent Charles Wright, Jr. was scheduled to go

on this trip but could not at the last minute. I would like to know if the districtreceived a refund on either the $1800 registration and/or his airline ticket. Thee-mails have Patricia Stambor in HR asking about a refund but there is no

answer. (The person she asked was Anne Boeckman at the Seattle Chamber ofCommerce.)

- there is also an e-mail dated Feb. 25, 2014 from Patricia Stambor in HR toMarlene Fuller (don't know her department) referencing a "Preschool Mission

Spnd Exempt.pdf." I would like to see a copy of that document.

- I would also like to see any e-mails between Keisha Scarlett, principal at SouthShore and either Mary Beth Lambert, Chris Korsmo and/or Kelly Munn at the

League of Education Voters from Jan 1, 2014 to today's date that reference

preschool or Pre-K or Pre-K mission study trip.

- I have become aware that there is a regular monthly meeting between SPS

staff (probably Cashel Toner/Janet Blanford, Clover Codd/Shauna Heath) and

the City's Office of Education staff (Holly Miller, Sid Sidorowicz, Kathryn

Aisenberg). I would like to see any meeting minutes that are available from2010 to the present day that reference preschool and/or Pre-K.

Thank you,
