No mentor, no constructive assistance from administration, no help from the union! How can the system hope to keep decent teachers with conditions like these?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20674128.post-29708783790420980272016-07-09T17:44:27.619-04:002016-07-09T17:44:27.619-04:00It is a common practice for Neil Ganesh to target ...It is a common practice for Neil Ganesh to target teachers who file complaints or stand up for their rights and he's getting away with it.

I took a provisional assignment at Richmond hill high school. Even though I did a demo lesson before being hired, I was immediately targeted with 1- ineffective and 2- Developing to meet their quota. I was excessed in June with an ineffective score when I came in the school as an effective teacher. Do not take any positions there,because if you stand up for your rights and file an APPR complaint. Mr Ganesh will target you more and try to state that you are problematic teacher which can lead to a 3020a action against you. This abuse against veteran teachers has to end.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20674128.post-21583915911773040472016-07-09T15:10:16.164-04:002016-07-09T15:10:16.164-04:00The Department of Evil wants the cheating to conti...The Department of Evil wants the cheating to continue so the illiterate students can pass and the graduation rates look good.

Do you know if there is any merit to the allegations of cheating, or is it just a throw-in by the teacher with the cell phone hack? The cheating is of course the more serious charge than not investigating a stolen phone.<br />DOEvethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02084835745942351587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20674128.post-89067605642709091472016-07-09T12:42:27.921-04:002016-07-09T12:42:27.921-04:00Yeah I came from a district 27 school.

They can't write a memo, email, or their favorite, LIF, that is grammatically correct. "To" instead of "too", "there" instead of "their" or "they're" and my personal favorite, making a word plural by adding an apostrophe s. <br /><br />Instructional leaders of the school? What a damn joke.

The UFT announced in the New York Teacher that during the upcoming school year they will be investigating and reporting schools that have high turn overs. Urban Action Academy under principal Dorcely has had a yearly turn over of more than 50%. He has discontinued and brought 3020(a) charges against 3 teachers this year. If the charges against him are proven, he should be removed and lose his administrators license. BY THE WAY, he is the CSA district chair for several school districts and has never ever had a class of students assigned as a teacher. He went form substitute teacher to A.P. to principal. Farina stated principals should have a minimum of 7 years teaching experience. Lets see how this plays out. OSI investigation??

My kids go to a real school system where administrators actually report to parents and the community. There is no fake PEP team or a fake Network with Fake people who aren't needed. There's no Fake Leadership principals or Fake small schools with 300 kids and a grad rate of below 70%. There's no Fake Deputy Chancellors or Fake Deputy Superintendents or Fake Borough Centers that think they serve a community. Nope, none of these Fake positions, just real buildings with real results. So glad to see the teachers at the local supermarket over the weekend. A true community. Imagine sending kids to "School Choice" buildings, one coming from an hour away, one from down the block, and one from an hour the opposite way? No community, no neighborhood, no nothing. FAKE FAKE FAKE. Disgusting. Good for the DOE for letting it remain the same after Bloomberg. Good for Farina for the status quo. And remember in NYC, it's Students Last. Way too many adults making serious money. Imagine having a Network of adults making 6 figure salaries and no one wants them to come to their schools because it's all nonsense? Yes, ask New Visions. Billion dollar company riding the NYC parents and the parents don't even know the group. Love it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
