Students at PS 106 in Far Rockaway, Queens, have gotten no math or reading and writing books for the rigorous Common Core curriculum, whistleblowers say. The 234 kids get no gym or art classes. Instead, they watch movies every day. The kids have seen more movies than Siskel and Ebert, a source said...
The principal Marcella Sills, who joined PS 106 nine years ago is a frequent no-show, sources say.
Sills did not come to school last Monday. On Tuesday, she showed up at 3:30 p.m.
On Wednesday, The Post found her at home in Westbury, LI, all day before emerging at 2:50 p.m. school dismissal time. Wearing a fur coat, she took her BMW for a spin. She showed up at school Thursday, but not Friday.

The people who discovered this issue are the real problem because they pointed it out. They are trying to keep that Principal down. She’s just trying to get over.
Must have been a bunch of racists that pointed out this problem and corruption.
That’s usually what we hear when these people are caught.
Exactly. A bunch of redneck racists are trying to stir up trouble. But she’s not going to let them hurt those children. She is going to rise above their Hate. She is going to stay strong and stay focused on education.
It just baffles my mind how people could be so opposed to the public education of oppressed inner city minorities that they’d try to smear this woman’s reputation.
There was nothing in the article that implied she was a Christian.
So, your statement "...teachers continuing to support the unions that are their own undoing...." is not exactly true. Teachers may very well not want to support the union, but they must in order to have a job.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
For the vast majority of fedgov workers that's how it is. There are a few people still under the old civil service retirement system but that number is dropping rapidly (almost all of them have already retired).
I don't know about the military retirement system.
and remove any rights these people have to lifetime employment no matter how incompetent....
There is no right to lifetime employment, but there are huge obstacles to removing unproductive people. These obstacle need to be removed.

Thanks GilGil.
The students would have better conditions in prison. Oh, wait, in a way they are in prison.
