In August 2009 the Santa Clara County Office of Education entered into a study agreement
with the Fiscal Crisis and Management Assistance Team (FCMAT) for FCMAT to perform
the following:
1. Review district policies and procedures related to professional services contracts and
capital construction projects from the district’s bond fund including Measures A, E,
and G. in accordance with the following legal references for the 2007-08 and 2008-
09 fiscal years to determine if any components of fraud, misappropriation of funds or
other illegal practices have occurred that merit further examination.
2. Sample contracts related to the district’s bond fund and review vendor invoices regarding
sufficient detail to document the material and labor charges being invoiced to the district.
The review is based upon allegations that the district has not adhered to the prescribed
legal references listed for K-12 school districts and has consistently awarded multiple
contracts to single source vendors for duplicate services and that specific contractors
continue to be hired without meeting the required bidding requirements.
3. Review the district’s board policies, administrative regulations and specific contracts
and amendments to the former superintendent’s contract for the specific period of
2005-06 though 2008-09 fiscal years and confirm whether any violations of such
policies regarding vacation accrual and pay outs have occurred that would be deemed
illegal practices or a misappropriation of funds.

Foreword - FCMAT Background
The Fiscal Crisis and Management Assistance Team (FCMAT) was created by legislation
in accordance with Assembly Bill 1200 in 1992 as a service to assist local educational
agencies (LEAs) in complying with fiscal accountability standards.
AB 1200 was established from a need to ensure that LEAs throughout California were
adequately prepared to meet and sustain their financial obligations. AB 1200 is also a statewide
plan for county offices of education and school districts to work together on a local level to
improve fiscal procedures and accountability standards. The legislation expanded the role of the
county office in monitoring school districts under certain fiscal constraints to ensure these dis-
tricts could meet their financial commitments on a multiyear basis. AB 2756 provides specific
responsibilities to FCMAT with regard to districts that have received emergency state loans.
These include comprehensive assessments in five major operational areas and periodic reports
that identify the district’s progress on the improvement plans.
In January 2006, SB 430 (charter schools) and AB 1366 (community colleges) became law and
expanded FCMAT’s services to those types of LEAs.
Since 1992, FCMAT has been engaged to perform nearly 750 reviews for local educational
agencies, including school districts, county offices of education, charter schools and community
colleges. Services range from fiscal crisis intervention to management review and assistance.
FCMAT also provides professional development training. The Kern County Superintendent of
Schools is the administrative agent for FCMAT. The agency is guided under the leadership of
Joel D. Montero, Chief Executive Officer, with funding derived through appropriations in the
state budget and a modest fee schedule for charges to requesting agencies.

Introduction
Background
The East Side Union High School District is located in Santa Clara County and provides
educational services to students in grades 9-12 as well as adults. The district has the
fourth largest high school student enrollment in the state and the largest in northern
California. East Side Union maintains a general fund budget of $204 million and capital
project fund budgets totaling $115 million for the 2009-10 fiscal year.
The district serves more than 26,000 students and operates 23 schools, including 11
comprehensive high schools, six alternative education schools and six charter schools.
Student enrollment grew steadily from the 2002-03 to the 2007-08 fiscal years, but
declined in 2008-09.
Twenty-two percent of the district’s students are English-language learners and 31% are
eligible for free and reduced price meals. The district has consistently met its Academic
Performance Index target, but some subgroups have not met their Adequate Yearly
Progress criteria.
The district has a recent history of budget and fiscal issues as documented by three studies
conducted by the Fiscal Crisis and Management Assistance Team (FCMAT) since 2001.
In January and February 2009, the Santa Clara County Office of Education received
information from outside sources alleging questionable practices by the district in six
areas. The county office staff conducted an investigation and concluded that four areas
warranted further investigation by an outside expert. In July 2009, the county office
requested the services of FCMAT, and a study agreement for three of these items was
developed and signed on August 13, 2009. The scope points are as follows:
1. Review district policies and procedures related to professional services contracts
and capital construction projects from the district’s bond fund including Measures
A, E, and G. in accordance with the following legal references for the 2007-08 and
2008-09 fiscal years to determine if any components of fraud, misappropriation of
funds or other illegal practices have occurred that merit further examination.
2. Sample contracts related to the district’s bond fund and review vendor invoices
regarding sufficient detail to document the material and labor charges being
invoiced to the district.
The review is based upon allegations that the district has not adhered to the
prescribed legal references listed for K-12 school districts and has consistently
Santa Clara County Office of Education

awarded multiple contracts to single source vendors for duplicate services and that
specific contractors continue to be hired without meeting the required bidding
requirements.
3. Review the district’s board policies, administrative regulations and specific
contracts and amendments to the former superintendent’s contract for the specific
period of 2005-06 though 2008-09 fiscal years and confirm whether any violations
of such policies regarding vacation accrual and pay outs have occurred that would
be deemed illegal practices or a misappropriation of funds.
Study Team
The study team was composed of the following members:
Anthony L. Bridges Margaret Rosales
FCMAT Deputy Executive Officer FCMAT Consultant
Atascadero, California Kingsburg, California
Mary Barlow Steve Morrison
FCMAT Deputy Administrative Officer Morrison Forensics, LLC
Bakersfield, CA Bakersfield, California
Jim Cerreta, Leonel Martínez
Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE) FCMAT Public Information Specialist
FCMAT Fiscal Intervention Specialist Bakersfield, CA
Petaluma, California
Study Guidelines
The FCMAT review included examination of a sample of referenced documents such
as district contracts, invoices, time sheets, calendar records and bid documents. It
also included examination of any other documentation required to validate or refute
allegations of fraud, misappropriation of funds and other illegal practices.
FCMAT conducted initial fieldwork at the district offices from August 24-28, 2009.
Dozens of documents representing thousands of pages of information were acquired
from the district staff. Interviews were also conducted with district staff members and
the former superintendent as well as the county office staff. Follow-up interviews and
document-gathering continued for the next three months.
A technology forensics expert worked with the district and county office staffs in
September and October 2009 to capture data from a variety of technology sources as a
part of FCMAT’s review. FCMAT conducted several telephone conferences with county
office staff members in September, October and November 2009 to apprise them of the
review’s status.

Study Overview
In January and February 2009 the Santa Clara County Office of Education received
complaints from outside sources alleging questionable business practices by the East Side
Union High School District in the following areas:
1. The fraudulent use of credit cards
2. The awarding of contracts of questionable value
3. The making of unjustifiable payroll payments to the superintendent and the chief
business official (CBO)
4. The cashing out of unreported vacation time by the superintendent
5. The hiring of a former superintendent’s son by district contractor
6. The expending of bond funds without attendant progress in underlying
construction projects
Education Code Section 1241.5 (b) allows a county superintendent of schools to review
or audit the expenditures and internal controls of any school district in his or her county
if there is reason to believe that fraud, misappropriation of funds, or other illegal fiscal
practices have occurred. The code requires the review to be conducted in a timely
and efficient manner. The county office staff conducted an investigation that drew the
following conclusions:
• No evidence of fraud existed regarding item number one, but the governing board
should determine if any repayments would be required per board policy.
• A more extensive review of items number two, four, five and six by an indepen-
dent third party was necessary.
• Item number three noted above was justified and did not warrant further investi-
gation.
In July 2009, the county office requested the services of FCMAT to investigate items
number two, four and six. On August 4, 2009 the district governing board acquired the
services of the law firm Hanson Bridgett LLP of San Francisco, California to conduct an
independent district investigation of items number one, four, and five. Their findings and
recommendations are referenced in this report as appropriate.
During FCMAT’s interviews, several allegations were made that unnamed individuals
accessed the former superintendent’s district-issued desktop and/or laptop computers
and entered false data and information. The allegations indicated that information was
intended to support or harm the former superintendent, depending on the source.

On September 10, 2009 FCMAT retained a professional expert to conduct a forensic
analysis of the computers and equipment assigned to the superintendent to address these
allegations. The computer equipment used by the superintendent was examined, and
district network file server information was downloaded and reviewed. Information was
also gathered from the former superintendent’s Blackberry personal computing device
and the district’s Blackberry computer server.

Executive Summary
In early 2009, the Santa Clara County Office of Education received complaints from
outside sources alleging questionable practices by East Side Union High School
District. The county office investigation resolved certain items, but concluded that a
more extensive review by an independent third party was necessary regarding other
questionable business practices.
FCMAT was hired to conduct a review of these other questionable business practices and
determine if there was sufficiency of evidence to indicate the following:
Fraud, misappropriation of funds or other illegal practices that merit further ex-
amination with respect to contracted services.
Material and labor charges being invoiced to the district’s bond program support-
ed in sufficient detail the charges to these bond funds.
Violations of board policies regarding vacation accrual and payouts of the super-
intendent have occurred that would be deemed illegal practices or a misappropria-
tion of funds.
FCMAT conducted fieldwork, including interviews of employees and others, examination
of multiple documents containing thousands of pages, and an evaluation of computer hard
drive and systems information. As a result of this work, FCMAT concluded the following:
• No evidence of fraud, misappropriation of funds or other illegal practices was
observed in the contracted services transactions reviewed by FCMAT, but
violations of board policy occurred, and the gaps in existing policy should be
corrected.
• Some material and labor invoices of contracted services to bond funds were
insufficiently detailed to support charges to the bond funds. A more detailed
review is recommended.
• There was no evidence that board policies regarding vacation accrual and payouts
of the superintendent were violated, but there is much room for improvement
regarding payout procedures and accrued leave management.
Recommendations for improvements in policy, procedures and practices in each of these
points are included in this report.
This report repeats the theme established in FCMAT’s studies beginning in 2001, that the
district lacks effective internal control systems. Illegal acts, misappropriation of funds
or fraud can include an array of irregularities characterized by intentional deception and
misrepresentation of material facts. The principal mechanism for deterring fraud or illegal
practices in an organization is a strong system of internal controls. Two of those studies
included recommendations to improve internal controls regarding use of district-provided
credit cards. The second study, conducted in 2004, was focused entirely on this topic and
Santa Clara County Office of Education
6 ExECuTIvE SummARy
contained recommendations repeated from the first study to significantly improve controls
over use of credit cards. Credit card use and abuse was one of the scope points reviewed
during investigations by the county office and district. While the number of credit cards
issued to staff members has significantly decreased in recent years from approximately
80 to three, and other controls were implemented, overall controls over credit card use
continue to need improvement.
During FCMAT’s interviews, several individuals indicated they feared reprisal if they
cooperated with this review or provided certain requested information. One employee
requested that meetings be held off site to maintain the requested confidentiality. Several
employees provided information orally but refused to provide written documentation to
validate and document the allegations. Another employee participated in interviews, but
avoided any contact afterward despite several efforts by FCMAT to make contact for
follow-up purposes.
Many interviewees expressed frustrations about issues unrelated to the scope points of
the review. These comments centered on other staff members, administrators and board
members, both current and former. According to these employees, the district for many
years has operated with a culture of intimidation and mistrust that may have contributed
to the departure of the superintendent. FCMAT is concerned about the extent to which
this situation may have contributed to the issues that are the focus of this review.
The governing board should recommit itself to improving the district’s business systems
which include a comprehensive review of board policies and administrative regulations.
The governing board and administration should also provide the leadership necessary
to promote a culture of trust and openness instead of a culture of mistrust and intimida-
tion. Leadership and the operating philosophy of the Governing Board and executive
management for the proper internal controls include soft controls such as management
tone, performance evaluations, training programs, and maintaining established policies,
procedures and standards of conduct. These types of internal controls extend to the way
management assigns authority and responsibility and organizes and develops the district’s
personnel.
Every organization faces a variety of internal and external risks that must be managed.
While all employees in the organization have some responsibility for internal controls,
the governing board, superintendent and upper management are ultimately responsible.

Findings and Recommendations
Contracted Services
The review is based on allegations that the East Side Union High School District has done
the following:
• Failed to adhere to the prescribed legal references listed below for K-12 school districts.
• Consistently awarded multiple contracts to single-source vendors for duplicate
services.
• Consistently hired specific contractors hired without meeting the required bidding
requirements.
The following sections of the California Public Contract Code are pertinent:
Formal bidding, Section 20111
School districts are required to utilize formal bidding when contracting for public work
projects of more than $15,000 or material or supply purchases of more than: $69,000 for
calendar year 2007, $72,400 for calendar year 2008 and $76,700 for calendar year 2009.
Exceptions, Section 20113
An exception for formal bidding is allowed for any repair, alteration, work or services
necessary to permit the continuation of existing school classes to avoid danger to life or
property (emergency measures must be approved by the Governing Board and approved
by the County Superintendent of Schools).
Exemptions from formal bidding, Section 20118
Exemptions include supplementary textbooks, library books, educational films,
audiovisual materials, test materials, workbooks, instructional computer software
packages or periodicals required for the operation of schools (Section 20118.3).
The school district has the right to enter into a contract to acquire electronic data
processing systems and telecommunications goods and services with one of the
three lowest responsible bidders (Section 20118).
In addition, California Government Code Section 53060 on professional service
contracts provides that competitive bidding may not be required for the following
types of projects:
1. Private architectural
2. Landscape architectural
3. Engineering
4. Environmental

5. Land surveying
6. Construction project management
7. Financial
8. Accounting
9. Legal
FCMAT’s scope did not include a review of whether the contracts in the team’s sample
violated the restrictions and prohibitions on contracting for services as included in
Education Code section 45103.1 since this was not requested by the county office.
Nonetheless, the team was not presented and did not observe any documents or other
evidence that this code section was violated.
Board policies also provide the staff with guidance regarding procurement of goods and
services. These policies are attached as Exhibit A to this report. A brief summary of
relevant aspects is provided in the following table.

Complaints
In January and February 2009 and afterward, the Santa Clara Office of Education
received complaints regarding the district’s procurement and payment procedures for the
hiring of consultants. These complaints included the following concerns:
• Certain consultant contracts were not subjected to bidding procedures.
• Several purchase orders and contracts were issued to the same vendors, creating
the appearance of job splitting to avoid bidding the requirements of the Public
Contract Code.
• An unusually large percentage of the budget was spent on consultants.
• Select contractors repeatedly obtained work, raising concerns about quid-pro-quo
arrangements.

10 CONTRACTED SERvICES
Contracted Services – Procedures Testing
FCMAT selected a sample of 31 contracts from a list prepared by the staff of all contracts
entered into during the 2007-08, 2008-09 and 2009-10 fiscal years to determine the
nature of the district procedures used to procure contracted services. The supporting
documentation for these contracts was examined, including the following:
Documents
Purchase orders
Contracts
Invoices
Payment requisitions
These documents were reviewed to determine compliance with bidding requirements of
the Public Contract Code and informal bid limits per board policy. Purchase orders were
reviewed to determine proper authorization and contracts for consistency with purchase
orders. Invoices and payment request documentation were reviewed to determine whether
they had sufficient detail to determine the nature and propriety of services provided, and
authorization for payment. Governing board minutes were reviewed to confirm approval
of documents and transactions as required by state law, board policy and regulation.
Of the 31 contracts sampled, 14 were for services related to the district’s facility program
and 17 for instructional and operational support service programs. The 14 facility
program contracts included a variety of services. The categories of service and number of
contracts by category are as follows:
Architectural and engineering – 4
Construction inspection – 3
State facility funding consulting – 2
Soil testing – 1
Fire alarm system testing and diagnostics – 1
Facility program management – 1
Long Range Academic and Facility Master Plan development – 1
Asset Management Plan development – 1
The review found that services received for all 14 contracts were necessary to meet
facility program objectives. All contracts were also exempt from bidding requirements
according to Government Code section 56030.
However, administrative regulation 3323 technically exempts nearly all of these contracts
from an informal bidding process. It is unclear whether this was intentional on the part
of the board or the district, but some contracts were subjected to an informal selection
process while others were not.
Fiscal Crisis & Management Assistance Team
CONTRACTED SERvICES 11
The sample supporting documentation shows one instance where consultant services
were funded under the purchase order of a different consultant. There was no indication
that the latter consultant’s contract was submitted to the board for approval, or that a
corresponding purchase order was approved. While the services provided were consistent
with industry practices, the reference to the purchase order of the other consultant left a
confusing and incomplete audit trail for these services.
Subconsultants provided certain services to consultants under contract with the district,
and these services were included in the consultants’ invoice to the district. While
this practice is common, it may contribute to a perception that the district is trying to
circumvent the bidding procedures required by law. Although these services are exempt
from bidding, the district should exert greater control over subconsultant invoices. The
governing board should provide guidance in this area.
The 17 instructional and operational support service programs contracts included a
variety of services. The categories of service and number of contracts by category are as
follows:
Nonpublic school services – 2
Other educational program services (adult education, after-school CAHSEE
programs, DAIT, other programs) – 5
Professional staff development program services – 2
Field supervision for social work interns – 1
Long Range Academic & Facility Master Plan development – 1
Emergency repairs – 1
Copier contract management – 1
Technology cabling infrastructure installation and maintenance – 2
Energy management program services – 1
Security services, alarm systems – 1
These services brought at least some value to the district and are generally consistent with
the practices of urban school districts throughout the state with student enrollment and
demographics to East Side Union.
Most contracts were also exempt from bidding requirements of the Public Contract Code,
but supporting documentation was insufficient to determine the status of others. The
contracts in question are as follows:
Copier contract management
Technology cabling infrastructure installation and maintenance
Security services, alarm systems
Santa Clara County Office of Education
12 CONTRACTED SERvICES
Each of these contracts could be exempt depending on the circumstances surrounding the
services provided, but a legal opinion would be necessary to confirm that these types of
contracts are exempt from bidding requirements.
Administrative regulation 3323 requires an informal bid process for most of these
contracts (because contracts of more than $50,000 are not identified in the policy, it
appears they are not subject to the informal process). However, there was no indication
that eight of these contracts were subjected to an informal bid process as required by the
policy.
Below is a summary of other findings identified as a result of FCMAT’s testing
procedures.
• Consultant service contracts and purchase orders were routinely approved by the
governing board, but minutes of board meetings lack a detailed list so confirma-
tion was not possible.
• Purchase orders that otherwise required board approval were increased without
any indication that approval was obtained.
• New contracts were issued to the same vendor for an extension of the same ser-
vices without indication of board approval.
• Invoices were paid that did not include specific dates of service.
• Invoices for one particular vendor were paid under a purchase order issued to a
different vendor.
• Contracted services payments were evenly allocated over several months, with no
supporting detail was provided on invoices regarding services.
• Former employees were hired as consultants with no indication that a conflict-of-
interest statement was submitted as required by board policy.
• There was no indication that the governing board approved warrants until the
summer of 2009, when board policy 3314 was implemented consistent with Educa-
tion Code section 42630 et seq.
Utilization of Contracted Services
A common theme in the complaints and FCMAT interviews was that the district utilizes
an excessive number of consultants, implying that an excessive amount of district funds
are expended for some services.
FCMAT developed a summary of all purchase orders issued by the district for contracted
services in the 2007-08, 2008-09 and 2009-10 fiscal years through the date of fieldwork
for this report. The summary shows that a significant number of purchase orders for
contracted services has been issued during this time, but the amount spent on consultants
is not excessive when compared to industry standards.
The summary indicates that 618 contracted services purchase orders were issued from
capital project funds and another 1,262 from all other funds for a grand total of 1,880.
Fiscal Crisis & Management Assistance Team
CONTRACTED SERvICES 13
Of the 618 capital project funds purchase orders, 604 were funded from bond measures
E and G projects. The issuance of separate architectural, inspection, testing and other
services contracts for each modernization or construction project significantly increased
this number, accounting for approximately 80% of all contracts.
A total of $43,907,582 was encumbered under these capital project funds purchase
orders for an average of $71,048 per order. The total encumbered represents less than
7% of all Measure E & G funds, which is less than the industry standards for contracted
services and other overhead or “soft costs” of school modernization (10-12%) and new
construction projects (8-10%).
About 350 vendors received contracts from the all-other fund group, averaging 3.6
contracts per vendor. The highest number of purchase orders issued to a single vendor
was 66, with a total of $36,000 contracted or an average of $545 per contract. The
largest dollar amount issued to any single vendor was $2,612,679 for eight contracts
with a nonpublic school special education services provider. A total of $22,550,006 was
encumbered under these purchase orders, or an average of $17,868.
The Education Data Partnership Web site provides comparative financial data for all
California school districts. Using the data in this Web site, FCMAT compared the
district’s general fund contracted services spending (SACS object code series 5100, 5600
and 5800) during the 2007-08 fiscal year with four similarly sized high school districts in
the state. The district expended $427 per pupil while the average of the comparison group
was $493. Of the five districts compared, three spent more per pupil than East Side Union.
Therefore, based on the sample data examined by FCMAT, funds expended for contracted
services at the district are within industry standards.
Allegations of Quid-Pro-Quo
In interviews with FCMAT, some staff members alleged that donations to the district
and/or its board members are solicited from prospective contractors as a condition of
receiving work from the district. Other allegations were that certain administrators
routinely hire contractors with whom they have a nonworking relationship and who
provided personal favors or otherwise benefitted from the relationship. However, no
documentary evidence was provided or discovered to support these allegations.
Internal Audit Function
In past years, the district operated an internal audit function to monitor critical district
internal controls surrounding financial systems.
Santa Clara County Office of Education
14 CONTRACTED SERvICES
The internal auditor position was eliminated as a result of budget reductions. The internal
auditor who last held the position indicated his work found that the district lacks internal
controls in several systems, including purchasing and procurement. The former auditor
concluded that the district did not effectively utilize the internal audit function. The
former auditor also suggested serious consideration should be given to restoring the
position and operating the function according to industry standards.
Recommendations
The governing board should:
1. Amend administrative regulation 3323 to require informal bids for all service
contracts of more than $5,000 with no maximum limit.

Bond Funds - Contracted Services
FCMAT selected a sample of 31 contracts from a list prepared by the staff of all contracts
that were entered into during the 2007-08, 2008-09 and 2009-10 fiscal years. Of this
sample, 12 were encumbered against either Measure G (fund 21) or Measure E (fund 23)
bond funds and two were charged to the capital facilities fund (fund 25).
The underlying cash disbursement documents for each contract were examined to
determine the sufficiency of invoice detail. Supporting documentation was carefully
examined, with attention paid to details regarding the following:
Dates services were provided
Hours of service provided each day
Identification of who provided services
Description of services provided
Identification of facility project and account code charged
The supporting documentation showed that invoice details were sufficient to support
charges made to the account code in all cases except two professional services consultants.
The invoices for these exceptions did not provide sufficient detail to do the following:
Identify the facility project for which services were provided, and/or
Identify the precise nature of all services provided, and/or who provided them,
and/or when they were provided.
It was clear that these services were necessary to accomplish the objectives of the facility
program. However, more detail and/or better cost accounting for tracking costs to specific
projects would facilitate better understanding of the value of these services as well as the
appropriateness of charges against bond funds.
Facilities Program Management Review
The district commissioned a facilities program management review from Total School
Solutions of Fairfield, California, which completed its report in June 2008. The report
contained several recommendations regarding the district’s facility program, but also
identified a compliance issue, describing it as follows: “The funding of three projects with
Measure G bond proceeds which were not included in the approved Bond Project List (sic).”
Several management issues were identified, including “…projects have been undertaken
with little relation to the overall scope, budget and scheduling process. As a consequence,
some projects were expanded while others were delayed or eliminated.”
These issues suggest a confusing environment that no doubt contributed to concern that
Measure G and Measure E bond funds have not been utilized as authorized by the voters.
While the district administration and the governing board made efforts to address the
concerns noted in the Total School Solutions report, it does not appear that they have been
completely resolved.

Recommendations
The district should:
1. Require all vendors provide detailed invoices that include specific dates and hours
per day of service, detailed by the person providing the service, with the underly-
ing facility project identified with each charge.
2. Consider a review of all invoices charged to Measure G and Measure E funds to
determine that project costs were properly allocated to each bond program.
3. Fund from other sources any inappropriate expenditures identified as a result of
the review per recommendation number two.

Superintendent’s vacation
The Santa Clara County Office of Education received complaints from outside sources
alleging that unreported vacation time was cashed out by the former superintendent.
FCMAT conducted an investigation and concluded the following:
• Vacation payouts to the former superintendent were not in conflict with district
policy and regulation.
• Vacation payouts were consistent with applicable provisions of the employment
agreements between the district and the superintendent.
• There was no evidence that the superintendent failed to report vacation time taken
to the district.
However, FCMAT developed recommendations regarding board policy and improvements
to internal control systems. These recommendations are provided at the end of this
section.
Board Policy and Administrative Regulations
FCMAT reviewed district board policies 4161 and 4170 regarding personnel leaves. Board
policy 4161, “Personnel, Subject – Leaves,” includes the following:
“…The Board recognizes the following justifiable reasons for absence as provided
by law…
…6. Vacations for classified staff and certificated management staff, as
applicable.” (Emphasis added)
Therefore vacation accrual and usage was authorized by the board for certificated
management staff.
Board policy 4170, “Certificated Management Personnel Policies” article 2 Vacations,
includes the following:
2.1 Unless otherwise indicated, vacation time may be taken as it is earned and
must be taken or lost by August 31 of the calendar year subsequent to being
earned. In extraordinary cases, the Superintendent may grant exceptions to this
deadline.
2.2 Commencing August 31, 1988, vacation shall not be earned by any
management employee who has a vacation balance of 25 days or more. This
limitation shall not apply to individuals whose employment contracts otherwise
provide.”
Santa Clara County Office of Education
20 BOND FuNDS - CONTRACTED SERvICES
Because the former superintendent’s contract provided specific language that addressed
vacation accrual, cash payouts and accrual limitations, policy articles 2.1 and 2.2 did not
apply. In any case, the superintendent could have waived article 2.1 for himself.
The staff did not provide administrative regulations associated with the above board
policies.
Employment Agreements
FCMAT reviewed employment agreements between the district and superintendent with
regards to his position as interim superintendent and superintendent. Three agreements
that covered his tenure were provided. The following table contains summary information
regarding these documents.

The district first hired the superintendent in question as chief human resources officer in
June 2004, and he continued in this capacity until he was hired as interim superintendent
in August 2005. The employment agreement for the first position was not reviewed.
The agreement dated January 1, 2008 refers to a prior agreement dated October 26,
2006 that was superseded in its entirety by this January 1 agreement. FCMAT was not
provided with a copy of the agreement dated October 26, 2006.
All these agreements provided for vacation payouts to the superintendent. The amount of
vacation accrual and maximum payouts changed over time, but these articles were present
in each employment agreement of tenure as interim superintendent and superintendent.
The following is a summary of these provisions:
Article 7, “Vacation” of the agreement dated August 25, 2005 entitled the interim
superintendent to 25 days vacation per year with full pay. It further provided that
at the expiration of the agreement, the interim superintendent could redeem for
cash payment all unused and accrued vacation days.
Fiscal Crisis & Management Assistance Team
SupERINTENDENT’S vACATION 21
Article 7, “Vacation and Sick Leave” of the agreement dated February 8, 2006
entitled the Superintendent to 30 days paid vacation each year. This article further
provided that the superintendent could not accumulate more than 40 days of ac-
crued vacation and that such accrual ceased until the total of earned and unused
vacation days fell below 40. Finally, the article provided that at the conclusion of
a fiscal year, the superintendent could redeem for cash payment up to 30 days of
vacation.
Article 8, “Vacation and Sick Leave” of the agreement dated January 1, 2008 con-
tained language identical to Article 7 of the agreement dated February 8, 2006.
The staff indicated that vacation payout language was provided in all employment
agreements with the districts certificated management staff, and these payouts were
periodically requested.
Each agreement included provisions that committed the superintendent to be available
12 months a year to perform the prescribed duties. Accrued vacation and sick leave were
the only noted exceptions; holidays, paid or otherwise, were not addressed. The staff
indicated that in practice, the same paid holidays were extended to the superintendent as
those provided to all certificated management staff members and those provided to the
classified staff.
Vacation Accrual Record and Payouts
FCMAT reviewed a variety of documents regarding the vacation accrual record of the
former superintendent. These records contain errors in the calculation of vacation accrual
and carryover limitations. However, there was sufficient unused and unpaid accrued
vacation during his tenure as interim superintendent and superintendent with a minor
exception noted in the “Accruals” narrative below, and no recapture of vacation payouts is
required or recommended.
The following table provides a summary of the former superintendent’s vacation accrual
summary during his employment with the district, as prepared by the staff.

As indicated in above table, the staff made several errors or oversights in calculating the
former superintendent’s vacation accrual record over the years, resulting in an overstatement
of 18 days of accrued vacation at October 31, 2009. These errors were as follows:
• In January 2006, the superintendent and the district entered into a new employ-
ment agreement that provided 30 days vacation accrual each year as compared
to 25 in the prior agreement. However, because the agreement was implemented
January 1, 2006, the superintendent was entitled to an additional 2.5 days of
accrual for the 2005-2006 fiscal year. The staff added five days to his vacation
record, overstating accrued vacation by 2.5 days.
• The above overstatement resulted in a negative vacation balance of 2.5 days as
the superintendent cashed out 100% of his vacation balance in May 2006 (a full
month earlier than allowed by the employment agreement). However, this over-
statement was corrected July 1, 2006 as the 2006-07 accrual was posted to his
vacation record. Therefore, no recapture would have been required.
Fiscal Crisis & Management Assistance Team
SupERINTENDENT’S vACATION 23
• The staff accrued 25 days of vacation for the 2007-08, 2008-09 and 2009-10 fis-
cal years while the employment agreement provided for 30 days each year. This
understated accrued vacation by a cumulative total of 10 days since five of those
days would not have been accrued because of the vacation carryover limitation
(see next bullet).
• The superintendent’s contract provided for a cap of 40 days accrued vacation,
and accruals were to cease until the total decreased to less than 40 days. If all the
above adjustments were applied, a total of 19.5 days and not 25 would have been
credited on July 1, 2008. This overstated the accrual by 5.5 days.
• Thirty days of accrued vacation were posted to the superintendent’s vacation
record for the 2009-10 fiscal year; however, 10 days is the adjusted amount after
accounting for the superintendent’s departure on October 31, 2009. This inadver-
tently resulted in an overstatement of 20 days.
• The separation agreement between the district and the superintedent did not pro-
vide for payoff of unused vacation days.
The cumulative impact of these accrual errors was to overstate accrued vacation by 18
days. The final accrued and unpaid vacation amount should be 15 days according to
FCMAT calculations.
Exhibits C, D and E, which are attached to this report, provide calculations and
documentation to support the above analysis.
Sick Leave Accrual Record and Usage
The superintendent’s contracts provided for 12 days of accrued sick leave each year.
According to this record, he did not utilize any sick leave during his employment with the
district. The following table summarizes the district’s sick leave accrual record.

The 2009-10 accrual should be adjusted to account for the termination of the
superintendent’s employment as of October 31, 2009. This adjustment would result in a
reduction of eight days of sick leave, reducing the total accrued sick leave to 367.75 days.
Vacation Used
Certain individuals interviewed by FCMAT repeated the allegations received by county
office. These were that the former superintendent took unreported vacation during his
tenure with the district, and that he took cash payments for vacation he would not have
been entitled to if he correctly reported his vacation time. Other statements were made
indicating the individuals believed the former superintendent never took vacation during
his entire four-year term as superintendent.
The former superintendent denied these allegations when interviewed by the FCMAT
team and indicated that he took vacation, which he always reported to the district.
FCMAT’s review of the superintendent’s vacation accrual records, which are maintained
by the district, indicates that he reported using slightly more than 31 days of vacation
during his tenure with the district, averaging less than eight days per year. However,
from December 2005 through June 2009 a total of seven days vacation were reported, all
in July 2007. This period of 3½ years with only one vacation leave reported contributed
significantly to the concerns expressed by the complainants and interviewees.
Several individuals indicated they had personal knowledge that the superintendent took
vacation but did not report it to the district. These vacations were alleged to have occurred
at various times and locations, including London, but no documentation was provided
to support this. The former superintendent acknowledges a business trip to Arizona,
although he could not recall when, but indicated he did not travel to the other locations.
No trips to Arizona were observed on the summary of workshops and conferences the
district funded for the superintendent as prepared by the district staff.
The following table contains the list of workshop locations as well as whether the
superintendent attended.

FCMAT’s review of supporting documentation for a sample of the above conferences
found no inconsistencies regarding the workshops that the superintendent indicated
he attended. The former superintendent had relatives that lived at some of the above
locations, but the business purpose of the travel to these locations was documented.
No documentation was provided to indicate the superintendent traveled to destinations
other than those listed above, which he took and reported for the purposes noted.
Calendars
The team received hard copies of the superintendent’s work calendar from the district
staff during site visits on August 24-28, 2009. Copies covered August 25, 2005 through
July 28, 2009. The team also created a summary of the superintendent’s Microsoft
Outlook calendar for January 1, 2007 through January 17, 2009, which was captured from
the Sony Vaio laptop computer assigned to him. Individuals interviewed by FCMAT
indicated that a written calendar that was maintained by or for the superintendent, but
they did not have evidence of this, and the former superintendent indicated he does not
have this type of calendar.

or similar notations that indicated the superintendent was not available to others for the

The initial investigation conducted by the county office identified 25 days in
which the superintendent’s calendar indicated he was not available for appoint-
ments, raising the question of whether these days should have been reported as
vacation. These dates are in bold type in the above table. Five of these days should
have been reported as vacation.
Weekends are assumed to be unpaid in determining paid days of service although
the superintendent’s employment agreements provided he was in a paid status 12
months a year.
According to the district staff, the practice at East Side Union is to provide certifi-
cated administrators with the same paid holidays as those for the classified staff.
It is unclear whether this included days identified as a CSEA-declared holiday,
which was granted as noted in the above table.
No sick leave was utilized by the superintendent during his employment with the
district according to district records.
“Other Appts” represents a day that “no appointments” or similar notation were
posted to the Sony Vaio calendar, but appointments were noted on either the Sony
Vaio computer or hard copy calendar either before or after office hours.
FCMAT was unable to determine whether any entries in the Sony Vaio computer
calendar were erased or modified in any way since file server backups and procedures did
not capture this data.
The hard copy Microsoft Outlook calendar pages provided by the staff had no notations
or appointments on many days, with no notations or appointments on most days
from August 2005 through April 2007. The district staff indicated that faulty back-up
procedures implemented by the Information Technology Department staff caused many
Santa Clara County Office of Education
28 SupERINTENDENT’S vACATION
of the appointments and other calendar notations to be removed from the Microsoft Office
calendar program, with no corresponding notations captured in the back-up files. This
was confirmed by the FCMAT computer forensics expert. Therefore, these documents
were unreliable for analysis, except as a tertiary source to corroborate information
provided through other sources.
Independent Investigation
The district governing board conducted an independent investigation that included the
superintendent’s vacation usage and payouts. This investigation was conducted by a
law firm, and the findings concluded that there was no evidence to support work was
performed by the superintendent on September 24, 2007, January 3 and 4, 2008 and
December 22 and 23, 2008 and therefore, these five days should have been charged to
his accrued vacation. Since these days were fewer than the days of the superintendent’s
unused accrued vacation, no recapture was required and no payouts were inappropriate.
FCMAT concurs with that conclusion regarding the dates of January 3 and 4 and
December 22 and 23, 2008. However, FCMAT does not concur with the conclusion
regarding September 24, 2007. While many calendared appointments were cancelled that
day, a teacher recognition dinner was not. FCMAT therefore concludes the superintendent
worked at least part of that day.
Conclusion
The 11 paid days the superintendent did not work is less than the total unused accrued
vacation of 15 days according FCMAT’s analysis. Further, the difference of four days
exceeds the 2.5 day accrual error that was not accounted for. Therefore, no recapture of
the days paid but not worked is necessary. All payouts were appropriate and consistent
with board policy, regulations and the superintendent’s employment agreement with the
district.
Vacation Buyout Process
The district’s process for vacation payouts is informal, with no forms, policies, regulations
or procedures that provide the staff with guidance on how these should be processed.
Some staff members took the initiative to request in writing how much accrued vacation
an individual administrator wanted to claim for payout at the end of the year. These
requests were informal, usually an e-mail, and considered a courtesy by the staff member.
If no request was received, some administrators would likely have lost accrued vacation
to the carryover cap provisions of board policy.
FCMAT could not verify calculations of individual administrator daily rates for payout
purposes. The staff may have used an inconsistent basis to calculate these daily rates.
Fiscal Crisis & Management Assistance Team
SupERINTENDENT’S vACATION 29
Recommendations
The governing board should:
1. Adopt policy and regulations to require periodic vacations be taken by all staff
that accrue this leave, and implement procedures to periodically confirm vacations
are taken.
2. Adopt policy and regulations to develop a clear process for cash payouts of unused
vacation. Include in this process a requirement that each payout is to be approved
by the governing board in advance of the payout.
3. Establish board regulations regarding the basis for calculation of administrator
daily rates to be utilized for vacation payout calculations.
4. Review all board policy, regulations and contracts for administrators and modify
if necessary to establish clear language identifying required annual days of paid
service, paid holidays, accrued vacation, sick leave and other leaves for members
of management.
The district should:
5. Develop and implement forms to be utilized by the staff to request and process
accrued vacation payouts.

Bids
The district shall purchase equipment, supplies and services using competitive bidding when
required by law and in accordance with statutory requirements for bidding and bidding procedures.
In those circumstances where the law does not require competitive bidding, the Governing Board
may request that a contract be competitively bid if the Board determines that it is in the best interest
of the district to do so.
When the Board has determined that it is in the best interest of the district, the Board may piggyback
onto the contract of another public agency or corporation to lease or purchase equipment or supplies
to the extent authorized by law.
To ensure that good value is received for funds expended, specifications shall be carefully designed
and shall describe in detail the quality, delivery and service required.
To assist the district in determining whether bidders are responsible, the Board may require
prequalification procedures as allowed by law and specified in administrative regulation.

(cf. 3300 - Expenditures/Expending Authority)
(cf. 3314 - Payment for Goods and Services)
(cf. 3400 - Management of District Assets/Accounts)

The Board has determined that it is in the best interests of district students for the district to enter
into a contract granting exclusive advertising or exclusive sale of carbonated beverages throughout
the district to a person, business or corporation.
Prior to entering into the contract, the Board shall ensure that the district has sufficient internal
controls in place to protect the integrity of public funds and to ensure that funds raised as a result of
this contract benefit public education. (Education Code 35182.5)
The Superintendent or designee shall develop the district's internal control procedures to protect the
integrity of public funds. Such internal controls may include, but not be limited to, the following:
1. Control procedures that produce accurate and reliable financial statements, and at the same
time, safeguard the assets, financial resources and integrity of every employee responsible for

pace with the changing responsibilities of management.
(cf. 3100 - Budget)
(cf. 3400 - Management of District Assets/Accounts)
(cf. 3460 - Financial Reports and Accountability)
2. Procedures to ensure that district personnel do not handle cash or product at the school site.
The contract shall specify that the vendor stock the machines and shall provide cash accounting,
along with a check, for district proceeds directly to the control office.
In addition, the contract may specify whether contractor logos are permitted on district facilities,
including but not limited to, scoreboards and other equipment. If such logos are permitted, the
contractor shall present the equipment to the Board as a gift. The gift may be accepted by the Board
in accordance with Board policy and administrative regulations.
(cf. 3290 - Gifts, Grants and Bequest)
To ensure that funds raised by the contract benefit district schools and students:
1. The Superintendent or designee may form a committee consisting of parents/guardians,
students, staff and interested community members to make recommendations regarding the contract,
including recommendations as to how the funds will be spent in a manner that benefits public
education.
(cf. 1220 - Citizen Advisory Committees)
2. Prior to ratifying the contract, the Board shall designate, at a public meeting, the specific
programs and activities which will be funded by the proceeds of the contract and how the contract
reflects the district's vision and goals.
(cf. 0000 - Vision)
(cf. 0100 - Philosophy)
(cf. 0200 - Goals for the School District)
3. The Superintendent or designee shall notify parents/guardians and students about the
parameters of the contract and how funds raised by the contract will be used.
4. The contract shall specify that the contractor report, on a quarterly basis, to the
Superintendent or designee the number of carbonated beverages sold within the district and the
amount of money raised by the sales. The Superintendent or designee shall report these amounts to
the Board on a quarterly basis.
5. The Superintendent or designee shall ensure that the contract does not limit the ability of
student and parent organizations to plan and operate fund-raising activities.

advertising to students, the Board shall: (Education Code 35182.5)
1. Enter into the contract at a noticed, public hearing of the Board.
(cf. 9320 - Meetings and Notices)
2. Make a finding that the electronic product or service is or would be an integral component
of the education of students.
(cf. 0440 - District Technology Plan)
(cf. 6162.7 - Use of Technology in Instruction)
3. Make a finding that the district cannot afford to provide the electronic product or service
unless it contracts to permit dissemination of advertising to students.
(cf. 1325 - Advertising and Promotion)
4. Provide written notice to parents/guardians that the advertising will be used in the
classroom or other learning center. This notice shall be part of the district's normal, ongoing
