Posted on: Many paths to teaching posts

I will give them one year in CCSD. After they are harangued by administrators they will ALL want to leave for greener pastures. CCSD administrators just don't get it. They don't believe in "mentoring" newbies. What they do believe in is "tor-mentoring" these new folks. Of course next year Emily will have another batch of newbies with great ideas, smiles on their faces, and an abiding lack of foresight when it comes to working as teachers in CCSD.

Good luck, newbies. You will need it.

Posted on: Bad feelings complicate achievement inequity issue

Deanna Wright does NOT belong on the school board. Neither does Garvey. These two ladies (???) thought it would be nice to be in control. Unfortunately two stalwart candidates - Ron Taylor and Eddie Goldman - were scuttled by the powers-that-be in CCSD and CCEA. I guess the next time these two BOZOS run for an office we will be on guard to make sure they don't make it out of the primaries.

BTW - Everyone has a right to speak at the school board meetings. If Wright can't stand the heat, she should get out of the kitchen.

Posted on: In Henderson, Titus voices support for affordable education

Look closely at Dina's outfit. When she was a state senator and an educator at UNLV, she ALWAYS wore that Nevada brooch. Now that she has become part of the Washington aristocracy and a loyal supporter of Reid and Pelosi, she has conveniently forgotten that her FIRST loyalties should be with Nevada. I can't wait to vote this lady out of office.

Posted on: District’s new teachers fewer than in recent years, full of enthusiasm

I am for evaluating teachers, but for the most part administrators are UNFAIR when it comes to evaluations. Here's a novel idea -- why not have teachers evaluate administrators. I can tell you right now many of the administrators in this district should return to the classroom for some extra seasoning. Unfortunately, the ADMINISTRATORS ASSOCIATION rules the district and this action would NEVER occur. Hey Emily, why not ask teachers how they would like to evaluate administrators. I am sure you would get an earful. (BTW - CCEA conducts annual surveys regarding administrators, but the results are carefully hidden from view. Why, CCSD wants it that way, And what does CCEA get for keeping the results secret???? $150K. With that kind of money, I would keep my trap shut, too.)

Posted on: Michael Jackson eyed Vegas ‘Wonderland’

Here's an idea. Why doesn't the Jackson family purchase one of the Station Casinos and they can rename it --- Molest-Station Casino, Hotel, and Fun Park for the Kiddies. It's just a thought......
