From the news item:
“Ponds previously said
he and Cipriano “had a relationship for five-plus years,” knowing each other
from Cipriano’s time as superintendent at Wood-Ridge. Ponds is a former
superintendent of schools for Moonachie, a neighbor of Wood-Ridge in Bergen
County.”
Also from the news item:
“When Ponds announced
in May that the district would be issuing 83
nonrenewal letters to make up for a $3 million deficit in its 2022-23 budget, he said previous assurances that the the district wouldn’t face budget
problems had come from “former” Business Administrator Cipriano — possibly the first public acknowledgment Cipriano and the
district had parted ways.”
After Cipriano's short and disastrous stint in Montclair, Nancy Cardone voted to hire him as Lodi's Business Administrator and started him at $175,000.
Below is the recent contract signed by Nancy Cardone and Nicholas Cipriano.
Nancy Cardone is hellbent on destroying our schools and creating a financial crisis for the Lodi taxpayers.
