BENNETT STREET BALLAD

The Bully of Bennett Street can bring teachers to their knees
Unless her ego they struggle to appease.

Don't even attempt to resist
Less a reason be found for you to be dismissed.

Petty grudges, long they be held.
Ruling through fear if truth be teld.

To keep control you must intimidate.
It's not loyalty, your threats generate.

  1. So many positive and beneficial changes could be happening at LPS if only it were under different leadership. Term limits for school committee members would help make this happen. If the same members are allowed to run and be elected year after year, how do you expect any changes to occur?

    1. It's not so much about "term limits" as about "coming to terms" with members who see the protection of the past a priority.
