East Ramapo - How many non-mandated days of busing?

East Ramapo - Wortham and Valet Pacci try to hide the amount of non-mandated days there are in the 2019-2020 school budget.

Pacci explains that the cuts of bus routes to only public school children are really cuts but efficiencies.

Pacci won't even answer the question "How many non-mandated busing days are in the budget". He even asks "what is the definition of non-mandated days. Wortham will not let him answer, moving on to the next question.

When questioned about the elimination of $900,000 on non-public transportation in a contingency budget Pacci again tries to dodge the answer. Pacci claims there is 178 days of transportation and there is no such thing as mandated vs non-mandated.

It is just a reduction in the non-public transportation budget.

Pacci mentions that earlier in the meeting Wortham mention that the cost per day for non-public transportation is $150,000 per day and that a reduction of $900,000 would be a 6 day reduction.

Wortham probably thinks that all the deception has non been exposed states "I think that answers how many non-mandated days of busing days are in for the private schools that 172 which is the average and the 178 that is the total would be 6 days".

The truth has now been told!
