Yep
Charter School moment
She most likely related to the scammer 🎯 why would anyone send money to Elon Musk of all people. Much more to this story . Just blame the scammer.
elonmusk wipes his butt with $1,000 bills. He doesn't need it.
🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤡
At least they stopped the check….
From snow birds to dodos, FLA is the flyaway for bird brains.
This is not a good look for charter school…first having 100k free money - imagine that for public schools. No public school principal would fall for that, and the money would already be spent on kids 🤦🏼♀️😂
Florida is broken
Send her to jail.
Why would Musk need $100k?
Dope
Charter does not mean better
