As I understand it, every time there was a meeting in JEH, let’s say for 8,10 people, Horton would order as if it was for 20 and then take the food home. I’m not kidding.

One of the receipts included in the document I shared above - the one from Coopers Hawk is for 20 people!

Ordering from Grecian Chicken as if you’re feeding 20 for a meeting with 8 people present and then taking home the leftovers….apparently this was done on the regular. 😤

Yeah right??? And at the same time you don’t have to wonder how there were such extravagant Grecian Chicken charges under his tenure —or other places??! It makes more sense if you think that he was ordering way over the quantity needed.

And again, previous superintendents more often than not, BROUGHT THEIR LUNCH.

BECAUSE THEY WORKED FOE A PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICT. AS PUBLIC SERVANTS.

The City of Evanston is a good place to compare - I have yet to find money spent on catering despite a much much larger budget and similar types of late-evening meetings.
