Today, Wednesday, May 15, 2024, is the long awaited first court appearance for Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small and Atlantic City Superintendent of Public Schools La’Quetta Small.

Just as Atlantic City High School Principal Constance Days Chapman did a few weeks ago … it is likely that Marty and La’Quetta Small will waive their first court appearance.

The criminal charges that these three public officials face are serious in nature, including:

MARTY SMALL is criminally charged with:

  • 2nd degree endangering the welfare of a child.
  • 3rd degree aggravated assault
  • 3rd degree terroristic threats
  • disorderly persons simple assault.

LA'QUETTA SMALL is criminally charged with:

  • 2nd degree endangering the welfare of a child.
  • 3 separate counts of disorderly persons simple assault.

CONSTANCE DAYS-CHAPMAN is criminally charged with:

  • second-degree Official Misconduct.
  • third-degree Hindering Apprehension of
  • Another.
  • fourth-degree Obstruction of Justice.
  • disorderly persons Failure to Report Child Abuse.

Days-Chapman was promptly suspended, following being criminally charged by the Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office.

To the disbelief of most everyone … La’Quetta Small has not as yet been suspended.

That could change tomorrow night, Thursday, May 16, 2024, at 6:00 p.m., when the Atlantic City Board of Education holds an emergency meeting to discuss La’Quetta Small.

A majority of the Board has immediately family members who hold school and City of Atlantic City jobs.

Marty and La’Quetta Small hold significant power cover these board members.

This will be put to the test just hours from now.

This board of functionary order takers are capable of not taking appropriate action versus La’Quetta Small.

If the Atlantic City Board of Education fails to act … it will be incumbent upon the state of New Jersey to take immediate action versus La’Quetta Small.
