Also included with the 9.5% raise over three years for the "administrators" (while our teachers do the "real work in the classroom!") -- is a cell phone and paid service of $80/month. WOW -- what do they use the $9500 for land-line budget object code in the current budget. This administration is still playing games ... we pay the bill, they do anything they want to with the funds. Notice they usually find an excess of funds at the end of the budget year ... could this be from "padding"?? I believe if the cell phone service is paid for with tax dollars we can have access to all the cell phone records.
Our small schools have more clerical staff than the legislators in Hartford ... what do they do during their work schedule?? WHO do they phone for almost $800/month with the land line bill --- CHINA?? Why do those serving on this board give approval for everything and anything without researching an issue?? How many years does it take to get a PhD -- our family has one in "science" and it took only 3.5 years. Guess paying travel expenses to get to classes do not have to be time limited. They can take 20 years to work on their doctorate and get paid for travel each year ($4800*20yrs is quite large).
FIRE ALL OF THEM ... no one has tied them down to our community. If they feel they are underpaid in a community of "great children with supporting-loving parents" they are free to terminate their relationship with the town. Believe me, in this economy we would find replacements quickly. Does anyone else find it interesting that we have a technology director and we still need to go outside the employees in our system to find someone to be a TRAINER for the white boards. Yes, they spent funds on tools they do not even know how to use.
. Could not have said it any better mombert, fire their sorry gold digging sixes !!!!
