If I hadn’t exposed the Cardone group’s unfair hiring
practices in January and February of 2018, Nancy Cardone’s sister-in-law would
have been made principal of Columbus School a few months later.
During the first month that Nancy Cardone returned to
the board (after resigning during her prior stint to get her niece a teaching
job in the Lodi schools), Cardone voted to hire her running mate’s girlfriend
for a position that was never advertised.
Nancy Cardone runs for this and has no shame. Unfortunately for Nancy Cardone, there was a
backlash from the public after the newspapers began reporting on her corrupt
hiring practices. If Nancy Cardone got
her sister-in-law the Columbus School principal position in the Spring of 2018,
the corrupt political machine knew more ethics complaints would follow. And
likely more news stories.
After I filed the ethics complaint, Lodi secretary
positions and others began being posted for the very first time. I believe this is a good thing. Hopefully, all hiring practices are fairer
and positions are better advertised when the current interim administrators are replaced.
Nancy Cardone is furious that I exposed the rigged
system that every member of her family benefits. People
that view our board meetings comment on how Nancy Cardone and her sister-in-law
are full of such hate and rage.
They are hateful and full of rage because they believe the Cardone
Family is “ENTITLED” to more than one Lodi principal position. They believe that their political campaign
activities should trump the hard work, professionalism, and intelligence of
qualified employees.
