The Elephant's New Clothes: Margery Eagan hears from the Elephant.

"This weblog was created in response to problems that are being allowed to fester in the New Bedford School System.  But the problems that exist there and in the greater community of New Bedford are anything but unique.  Lots of communities have poor quality leadership in their mayor's office and school committees.  Lots of communities have some equivalent of Pia Durkin sending her flying green monkeys to terrify and abuse the Dorothy's and the Maura's struggling to manage classrooms full of students who are apathetic or violent.  And lots of communities have a dying media outlet like the Standard Times that exhibits the behavior of a drowning man, violently pulling anything and anyone nearby under water in an effort to stay afloat.  For some reason Bob Unger has chosen to drown school teachers.  Only he knows why but the image of a troglodyte gleefully torturing a puppy does come to mind."

New Thread Request:

In the event a vote needs to take place, may members vote with their union rep at their own school if that is available?

No one loves Pia. There are Pia players, self preservationists, misfits from other districts, and cowards. Let's call them what they are.
