[Vision2020] Weitz is not a HERO this time

[keely emerinemix]

All together now:  Contracts!  Those contracts, many of which are now in peril, are how school districts all across the country attract and retain teachers.  They are legal documents, provided for one purpose:  to ensure that our children receive the best education possible from teachers like Tricia Nelson and the many others who are sickened by Dr. Weitz' actions.keelyDate: Tue, 8 May 2007 22:10:20 -0700From: donovanjarnold2005 at yahoo.comTo: the_ivies3 at yahoo.com; vision2020 at moscow.comSubject: Re: [Vision2020] Weitz  is not a HERO this timeTom Ivie,     You wrote:     "Until then, it is my opinion that the kids get the short end of the stick. They aren't the ones who vote, who administer funds, spend them, or file lawsuits."     It appears as though as long as the MSD Administration can use children as a shield from their actions they will have supporters. It seems an odd choice that we freeze the funding for education of the children but not the huge salaries, benefits and perks of those that make the bad decisions.

 right.  I won't change your mind and you won't change mine. We disagree and that is ok. The court will sort it out. Until then, it is my opinion that the kids get the short end of the stick.

If adding money worsens the education outcome, would the opposite help it?
