08/25/10 N.J. loses out on $400M in education funds due to administrative error......
The five-point question asked for budget information comparing the 2008 and 2009 school years. But the state entered data comparing the current year to 2011 instead.

08/27/10 TRENTON, N.J. - New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie announced he was firing his education commissioner Friday, days after it was revealed that a simple mistake on an application form might have cost the state a $400 million education grant.

The schools exist to educate, not employ.
Well, it might explain why Lisa looks so nervous nowadays. ;)
