SLIGHT OUT OF HAND?

Last night's LSC meeting had the formal introduction of the interim  principals DEB RUGGERIO at FORD and MR. RIDLEY at MARSHALL. He was not at the meeting.

Also missing was the rest of the TRANSITION TEAM at FORD, in fact they weren't even mentioned. WHY WAS THAT? Well here they are:

A key member of the team will be Gale Thomas; Lynn Public Schools retired elementary teacher, elementary vice principal, curriculum and instruction teacher, part-time intervention teacher for the Harrington School during its Level 4 years, and current program coordinator for the Lynn Summer English Learning Academy (LYSELA) program.

Ms. Thomas is currently vice president of the Lynn Business Education Foundation, an executive board member for the Lynn Teachers Union, a member of the Cobbet School Improvement Council, a board member for the Wraparound Zone initiative, and the Lynn Teachers Union Professional Development Coordinator.

Ms. Ruggiero and Ms. Thomas will be ably assisted by retired teacher Alice Gunning.  Ms. Gunning was an elementary classroom teacher, past president of the Lynn Teachers Union, a past member of the state Frameworks Committee, a past acting principal for the Lynn Public Schools, and has assisted us in the past with the opening of the Washington STEM School. Both Ms. Thomas and Ms. Gunning have experience in assisting the district in school support.

I am sure this oversight had nothing to do with the EXTRA money being paid to these people while a malnourished budget was being RAMed through (I haven't forgot about the CLASSICAL inequity and the FAVORED SON).
