Broward School Contract Handed To Campaign Contributor Violates Rules

By Buddy Nevins, BrowardBeat.com, for SouthFloridaReporter.com, Oct. 2, 2915 – Superintendent Robert Runcie violated School Board policy by handing a $150-an-hour consulting contract to a pro-school bond campaign contributor.

Right Management of Fort Lauderdale billed the school system $33,600 less than a month after the contract was signed.

The firm received a recruitment and selection contract on June 19. Its invoice billing the school system $33,600 was sent July 15 and later approved by Runcie.

Runcie personally picked Right Management, a strong supporter of the passage of last year’s $800 million school construction bond referendum.
