I'm sure educational voucher opponents are stuffing a folder with clippings on the failed Utah Southvalley Community School in preparation for the Legislature's next attempt to pass a statewide voucher program.

The school in Woodland Hills that focused on children with Asperger's syndrome went belly up last week after its new board president Bob Jones, right, desperately tried to transform it into a sports magnet. (How do you spell WTF?)

But a mystery remains: What happened to tens of thousands of dollars of taxpayer money in the form of Carson Smith Special Needs Scholarships?

Carson Smith is the shining example that voucher supporters cited in their defense of the state's short-lived comprehensve program that was crushed in a referendum vote last fall.

Parents of special needs kids fear that Jones diverted the school's $160,000 in Carson Smith money into sports.

Angie Avery, the defunct school's former secretary muses:

I don't know where the (special education) money went. But it wouldn't surprise me if it went toward football.
