According to Academia Antonia Alonso’s board minutes for their December 2014 meeting, the Community Education Building sent the school a letter agreeing to defer another $50,000 in rent, bringing a total of $250,000.00 to date. As well, it appears enrollment is down and they have applied for a major modification based on these lower numbers. This was at an emergency board meeting on 12/26/14. In addition, I reported in early January that Head of School Peter Barry “resigned”. The DOE Charter School website currently shows Teresa Gerchman as the Interim Head of School, who also serves as the CMO for Early College High School at Delaware State University (at least as of their November board meeting).
I really wish my mortgage company would keep deferring my mortgage! Hell, if they deferred a percentage of that, I’d have my house paid off! Is it the CEB deferring the rent, or the Longwood Foundation? Read about it below!
