Five years ago, I posted that Nancy Cardone was running for BOE to use our schools as her personal cash cow. In that post, I showed that Michael Cardone was collecting a $142,796 salary. Five years later (with his mother as BOE President), Michael Cardone is collecting a $180,276 salary. That is over a 26% increase in 5 years. Nancy Cardone committed ethics violations by hand-picking and personally appointing the board members to negotiate her son's contract. Nancy Cardone is directly responsible for financially benefitting her son.
