[quote=Anonymous]These waivers are standard provisions in many legal settlements in all areas of law, not just education. They serve the interest of the school district because it prevents the public from knowing how often they screw up, does not create any kind of precedent, will not cause the State to investigate, and allows plausible deniability the next time the same problem occurs. They probably do report to BOE how many waivers they enter, but like most legal matters, it's likely to be in a closed Board session. The Board then weighs whether it is cheaper to enter settlement agreements or to prevent the problems to begin with. Just like many private corporations, they've probably decided an ounce of lawsuits is worth a pound of prevention.[/quote]
