"Robert Brown, Michel Desgrottes, Alex Gonzalez, and Carla Alvarez were all found by the SCI, back in 2022, to have forged their timesheets while performing their Special Transportation Paraprofessional (STP) duties for three teenage students at P176x, located in Co-Op City . The school is part of District 75 and is for students with special needs. Such students usually need specific assistance while being picked up to go to school and when they are returned to their parents or guardians at the end of each school day."
"SCI received a complaint in 2020 about discrepancies in the four paraprofessionals' timesheets. Upon investigation, which involved questioning all four employees, it was found that they had added hours to their timesheets during both pick up and drop off during the 2019-2020 school year. Brown had forged his timesheets from September 2019 to June 2020, while Gonzalez forged his from September 2019 to January 2020. Desgrottes and Alvarez falsified theirs from October 2019 to February 2020. During the investigation, it was noted that the timesheets and the timing on the GPA trackers did not match up."
"All four mentioned in their timesheets that their times started earlier or ended after their schedule, according to their position's agenda. The paraprofessionals each noted their sessions began when they came to pick up their assigned students at the students' homes, and then said their sessions started again when they received the assigned students at the end of school day. But the job's agenda requires each daily session to begin when both paraprofessional and student board the bus together. The sessions then begin in the afternoon when the bus arrived"

The investigation involved questioning all four employees and found they added hours to their timesheets for pick up and drop off during the 2019-2020 school year. Robert Brown falsified timesheets from September 2019 to June 2020; Alex Gonzalez from September 2019 to January 2020; Michel Desgrottes and Carla Alvarez from October 2019 to February 2020. The recorded times did not align with GPA tracker data. The paraprofessionals recorded sessions beginning at student pickups and ending after scheduled times, contrary to the job agenda requiring sessions to start when both paraprofessional and student board the bus and for afternoon sessions to begin when the bus arrived.
