THE PEOPLE ARE PERCOLATING WITH POETRY

Here is a little poem for you Stanley...

How can Judy ask for a raise so soon after getting elected?
If we knew she would do this, she probably would have been rejected!

No one is really singing her praise
Especially since she requested a raise.

The raise wont just be for you
But also the city council and also your crew.


The city always says it has no money...
I guess they will find it for you though, isn't that funny?

The teachers have also been asking for a raise
The city is stalling, it must be a phase.

Administration keeps adding more and more teacher work to be done
yet the raise, well appears to be none.

They just want us to take all of our work home to be done after school
But when they don't even respect us, do you think we are fools?

The mayor mentioned she wants to be paid like mayors in another city.
Well the teachers do too..isn't it a pity?

Revere teachers earn about 8-10 thousand more per year
They build new schools and have money to spare

Wouldn't it be nice if we could do the same
But to you, the school committee, and the superintendent, it is just a game.

Maybe we should ask Revere how they are keeping pace?
Because what Lynn is doing, is very much a disgrace!!!

  1. Hooray for the author!!! Obviously they see the plight of the teachers in this city. Admin sure can take care of themselves but leave the real workers behind.

  2. It sounds like the author is a Lynn teacher. Good for him/her! The poem says it all. Secretary's working at LPS make the same, if not more, than our teachers. The secretary for the school committee makes almost $100,000 per year.....That is crazy!! This state and probably country, will see and suffer from a shortage of teachers in the near future because of all the BS they have to deal with, including low wages!
