In another example of local city officials grossly abusing government funds, the Centinela School District Superintendent was berated by justifiably angry citizens over his enormous salary.
The small California community has been shocked to discover that in addition to the $663,000 compensation package granted to Jose Fernandez, he also received a monumental loan from the school district of $900,000 at 2 percent interest over 40 years, even though he had already declared bankruptcy twice!
Unfortunately, there is no indication that any illegal act was committed, and shockingly, the superintendent actually defends his salary, saying he took over a district that had facilities “similar to Haiti.” The district includes only three High Schools, with about 6,500 students.
Makes you wonder how many other cities have such officials cashing in at the expense of their constituents’ well-being.

I was greeted today by a checker at a Walmart in CA with a cheery Como esta? That's short for how are you, for those few who have not yet learned simple Spanish. He realized I wasn't Mexican and was quite apologetic for not greeting me in English. I let him off the hook, partially, with "I understand, a lot of your customers are Spanish-speaking," then let him have it with "but this is the United States."
Did he get indignant?
From another article: (looks like the school board is 100% Hispanic)
School Superintendents, the nation’s highest paid migrant workers!
“Four of the five current board members — Rojas, Rocio Pizano, Gloria Ramos and President Maritza Molina — were on the panel that unanimously approved Fernandez’s employment contract in late 2009. The contract includes a bevy of perks and benefits that added nearly $400,000 to his base salary in calendar year 2013. Although $215,000 of that came from a one-time expense, the contract grants Fernandez a 9 percent raise annually.
It also allowed him to take a $910,000 loan from the district at 2 percent interest to purchase a home in affluent Ladera Heights.
That was it for "administration."
Regarding correcting his Spanish greeting, to his credit he did not.
