\"ACIT<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A growing list of school districts oppose ACIT expansion plans as well as the county\u2019s monetary contribution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parents are criticizing the ACIT, Atlantic County Institute of Technology application process endorsed by school superintendent, Phil Guenther. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACIT is described as a private school running on public funding. That’s according to a recent story in the Press of Atlantic City<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A brutal $10 million dollar tax burden will be placed on the shoulders of Atlantic County taxpayers.<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Superintendent Phil Guenther has been often accused of using public funds for not-so-public projects. Both Guenther and County Exec Dennis Levinson have been on the hot seat recently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Levinson Supports Guenther Plan.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

According to Harry Hurley Radio<\/a>, Levinson failed miserably with COVID-19 safety protocols thru-out County buildings under his management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most recently, according to Hurley, Levinson pulled a fast one when he sprung a vote on County Freeholders. Former Freeholder Board Chairman Frank Formica was hired as the new Atlantic County Shared Services Coordinator. The position is new. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The salary appears to be set at $40,000. It\u2019s a one year position with full taxpayer-paid fringe benefits. The Formica hiring wasn\u2019t placed on an earlier agenda. It violated the County\u2019s 12-day rule with respect to advanced notice to the public.

Could the former Brigantine Mayor, Phil Guenther<\/a> have questionable motives? ACIT and Guenther facing mounting criticism for hurting sending districts, as he boosts his own school district.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guenther and Levinson blatantly ignore ethics and procedure. Both are not to be trusted.<\/p>Concerned parent.<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHow can such a large increase in debt and taxes be considered without public discussion?\u201d \u201cI see no transparency.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Example of Guenther manipulating school funding to benefit few:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2018, as Mayor of Brigantine, Guenther forced private pre-k school SEA-TOTS to close in order to artificially boost enrollment within Brigantine\u2019s 2, half-empty schools, and win grant funding from the State of NJ.
