Diamond R-4 Superintendent Mark Mayo published his latest edition of Cat News on www.diamondwildcats.org today, but there is no mention of the just-settled lawsuit against Edison Schools, which Diamond officials claim billed them too much for running the district's summer school in 2002.
It has been indicated many times in this blog, that this appears to be a case of Mayo acting the Don Quixote role and tilting against windmills, since Diamond is the only school district I can find which has had problems with Edison. Everyone else has made money working with Edison's summer school arm, Newton Learning.
R-4 patrons have a right to know what the settlement was, how much money the district spent to reach that settlement and whether Diamond Don Quixote actually slayed the Edison windmill, or if he was just caught with his Sancho Panza down.

I believe that Diamond paid $50,000 and Edison wrote off about $20,000. Several years of haggling, bad press, and continual staff morale problems due to this moron's actions.
