come forward my ass. come forward and pay $100,000 is what they want. good luck!

Is the hay made from gold? 100k to clean up hay which might possibly take 2hrs of time? Right… I sell bridges in the desert.

BS, it doesn’t cost $100K to clean up 30 bales of hay. Heck I’ll do it for just $50K. Anyone who has worked on a farm knows that they are blowing this out of proportion.

The kids may be pranksters but the principal is a lying, nepotistic wanker. 100G to sweep up some hay? Is it me or is the primary concern of any governmental or corporate construct to pull numbers out of their ass that would insult the cost / value common sense of a clinical imbecile?

Does the principle want them all in rolls of quarters and stuffed up his ass?

Guys calm down. It only costs $100,000 because it’s the principal’s brother that got the job.

I hope the principal and his brother in law are indicted on fraud so the prank becomes that much funnier

Maybe it’s time to look into a career as a high school maintenance worker.

Three days to clean up 30 bales of hay? $100k in cost? I’ve got a herd of goats who’d do the job in a couple hours and I’d pay the school for the hay.

Must be using three snivel servants to do the clean-up, not two, for it to cost a 100 grand.

Well, since “The prank involved bales of hay that caused air quality issues” the cleanup would involve more than just a broom and a dust pan. Ventilation systems presumably would need to be cleaned as well. I can’t speak to the stated cost, but it is more involved than many here seem to think.
I’m sure there are many ways for them to pad the cost though: union labor, environmental impact studies etc etc

There is no way hay caused air quality issues. If it did go up into the ventilation system, the filter would have caught it costing only a few dollars. The worst thing they hay would do in the school is aggrivate allergies.

That is some bad-ass hay you folks have in Colorado! Let’s see: several hundred pounds of hay to remove equals about a few hours of work depending on the number of people put to the job. A few air filters to replace, maybe a hundred dollars. If it costs more than a thousand dollars to put this right, then you need to look at the people in charge of this school. Sure charge the students for the cost of clean-up, but 100,000.00 dollars is someones deluded fantasy.

That price of 100k sounds about right. It cost public schools 30k a year to teach a single student when private school do it for about 12k a year. Does this price of a government institution really surprise anyone? 2k for the cleanup and 98k in kickbacks – yep, thats about right

Must be a lot of goats Jake ! Or you need to feed them more often! lol I can see the next Reality show now “When Goats Attack”
As for that $100,00.00 price tag: It is the same thing the cops do for a pot bust ie, inflate the valuation of the pot to make themselves appear as if they actually accomplished something worthwhile.

Old hay bales are dusty and moldy – they probably have mold spores spread through the ventilation system. That can be VERY expensive to clean up.

No wonder our educational system is broke and broken – the administrators are fiscally illiterate. There’s absolutely no way this cleanup is $100K unless there’s some dirty dealing going on. Time for an investigation.

The principal probably had it done so he could bill the board for $100,000 and split it with the cleanup crew.

I’m beginning to believe that School Administrations are universally idiotic. I’ll clean it up for $30K.
