Sacramento County Grand Jury June 30, 2003 TO THE CITIZENS IN THE ELK GROVE UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT: The Elk Grove Unified School District is accountable to you. Apparently they do not agree. The Grand Jury can investigate, write a report, and receive an inadequate reply year after year. The EGUSD can obfuscate, delay, and refuse to talk without a subpoena, hoping to drag out the process long enough so that we will go away. This process cannot work for them if you, the good citizens in the Elk Grove Unified School District, demand better leadership from your elected officials.
