[quote=Anonymous]This Chicago Tribune excerpt describes a part of what Chartwells did in the Chicago Public Schools:

"The chief of food services at Chicago Public Schools and two members of her staff have received gifts worth thousands of dollars from the district's two largest food vendors since 2007, a serious violation of the district's ethics code, according to an investigation by CPS Inspector General James Sullivan.

The Tribune reported earlier this week that the inspector general was investigating whether a high-ranking CPS employee received a vendor's skybox tickets to a Green Bay Packers home game in both 2008 and 2009, including one for the night Packers legend Brett Favre returned as a member of the rival Minnesota Vikings."

We know that the person in charge of Food Services in DC attempted to end the DCPS association with Chartwells but was fired by Henderson because of his vocal dissatisfaction with Chartwells.  Is it therefore possible that someone else in DCPS received a kickback for her/his support of the Chartwells contract?[/quote]
