From Kilroy’s Delaware: For those who don’t know Lillian Lowery exposed the financial incompetency of the former super of Christina School District. On preconditions of taking over Christina she called for a complete audit. She could have walked from the table but stayed with the community and stayed the course! I have not doubt she […]
