Below I have listed most but not all of the charges for former Fox C-6 Superintendent Dianne Brown (Critchlow), Assistant Superintendent Dan Baker, Assistant Superintendent Todd Scott and superintendent secretary and school board secretary Debby Davis.
It will definitely be interesting to see how some of these charges are explained to the Fox C-6 Board of Education and the public. The most problematic issue is the fact that school district policy states that school district credit cards are limited to purchasing "Instructional Materials".
So, even if superintendents were supplied with credit cards, they were only supposed to be using them to purchase "Instructional Materials" and that did not happen.
According to board policy, district employees are required to provide receipts in order to get reimbursed for Professional Development. So, the charges for meals should have been purchased using their own personal credit cards and they should have been reimbursed only for those expenses that met district policies.
Since superintendents had been supplied with school district credit cards they were circumventing the checks and balances portion of the reimbursement process.
In reviewing the last several years of credit card statements, there were only a few individuals that had district credit cards that weren't using them per school district policy.
Below are most of the charges for those individuals that had school district credit cards and used them to purchase food at restaurants, gas stations and car washes. The charges were from the 2010-2011 VISA Card Statements which can be downloaded at the bottom of the page to see all of the charges.
It is truly amazing how many times our Central Office administrators purchased food or meals using their district credit cards. Based on some of the names of the restaurants frequented, there is a very good likelihood that some alcohol may have been purchased using district credit cards. Fox C-6 policies state that the district WILL NOT pay for alcohol.
I am looking forward to seeing how the school board handles the blatant violations of school district policy regarding credit card usage. All Fox C-6 superintendents had their credit cards taken away from them in June 2014. However, that doesn't resolve the problem of not using them properly in the first place.

MISCELLANEOUS CHARGES
- 06/23/2010 - 19 charges for $440 or $390 to CHARACTER EDUCATION PARTNER in Washington DC. (Maybe these were for banners at each of the school?)
- 07/19/2010 - Travel for Tim Crutchley and Kristen Pelster which appears to be related to Fox's Character Education Awards (St Louis - Denver - San Francisco - Chicago - St. Louis).
The school district credit card charges has really opened the eyes of the community as to how our taxpayer dollars were being spent by some Central Office Administrators.
Hopefully documentation hasn't been destroyed and State Auditor Tom Schweich and Fox CFO John Brazeal can recover ALL the monies that may have been spent improperly over the last 9 years.
Do all of the charges look like taxpayer dollars were spent "Conscientiously"?
