So Speaking Out, what is your plan?

You sound like a BPS teacher. I’m sure you’re terrified to come forward. We have all seen what happens to those that come forward.

How is it that we could get a petition going when teachers are terrified to speak out and the teachers are the ones who actually see and experience the impact of the BOE and JAWs influence on our schools?

I wonder if it would be a possibility to have the BTF hold such a petition and explain the importance of anonymity to the powers that be in the State Ed Department?

I wonder how one could go about such an endeavor?

What do you think, Speaking Out?

Maybe it is time for a petition by city residents to the NYS Attorney General. If these inactive members will only act with legal action pending, then maybe all of the criminal behavior of Buffalo Schools should be named. Theft of student funds, Fatima Morrell. Illegal use of #31 kitchen to cater a fundraiser, again, Fatima Morrell. Squelching criminal behavior from being reported to authorities under the policy of Dr. James Williams, committee headed up by Gregory Mott, handed down to the Principal’s Union by Crystal Barton, all felonies, each and every unreported incidence. Coercion and embezzlement of staff funds to pay for supplies principals refuse to fund, under the RICO act, a Federal felony, many principals involved. Each teacher and admin used in this matter needs to so identify themselves to make a count for an endictment of the School Board that knows this is occurring but refuses to acknowledge, collusion on their part. The list of crimes, complaints, issues in the hands of the BTf, over the years, since 2005 when Dr. Williams tried to take with illegal movement of students and staff, like he had to make a point, he is the BOSS, like a goon in the BOE Mob. Teachers and onlookers remember quite well. Nothing has changed or improved for the better. The kids are learning the information to take narrowly scoped tests that don’t prove they are learning but know the answers to a test. This regimen goes in spurts, three months reading, three month social studies, three months math, sheesh, so much energy just to prove that kids can be overpressured to fit some mold to continue to be in compliance… sheesh the kids are so frustrated, that they are ACTING out. One year several children were doing dear devil acts jumping off staircases while they wound down from the enormous pressure, 2.5 hours straight without a break. The principal cautioned the staff to be aware that the kids were acting dangerously and some were indeed imbalanced enough to be thought of as suicidal. So who are the leaders that are pressing our kids… who need to be examined…well you all know their names, the Asst Supt. It is time to stop the madness and to segment the learning to reasonable limits. It’s no wonder gangs are ripping through the streets on bikes beating up anyone they can find…these are recent. Please folks don’t be so soft as the BOE, go and learn the truth. The kids are in trouble, they are hurting and we aren’t listening or demanding to know. Teachers are being intimidated and their voice is quieted, why to give the BTF the job. but the BTF isn’t there either as the Union is winding down and yeilding to the madness.

Boy, everyone is focusing on the race issue.

My problem is that without Catherine heading the Student Achievement Committee and Ralph not heading the Executive Affairs, imagine the insanity to come this school year.

These two were honestly trying to hold this group of fools accountable in some way, shape or form. Now without them, it will really be a joke!

But once again, the people of Buffalo will allow anything.

Does anyone out there know of any legal process to have SED remove these bozos from their positions?

Since it has been said that SED has the authority to remove JAWs and the board, I am curious on how that process evolves and what we can do.

Anyone know?

I wonder if they saved a piece for Crystal Barton, she likes free stuff, like pop money and horticulture cash. I’m surprised there’s not a pic of them “high fiving” eah other or doing the gang-snap-your=fingers shake afterwards.

Mr White, get a life, really, your opinions here need to be more than race based garbage about privilage and getting screwed by the white man. Please get with the 21st century, there is a lot more than black people in this city. Focusing on one race is racisim at its purest, and if the tables were turned Jess Jackson would be here screaming. Please, spare us the “leadership” crap, it’s bullying at its best and that’s all there is too it. These followers of Williams have nothing gain except something for their bank accounts and fill their weak desire for recognition and control from their damaged self esteems and skewed and unprofessional perspective on how to participate in gov;t. They all are weak, do-nothing racists. It’s sickening, more than that it is sad.

PS what is with Vivian’s “costume”, is she going to rob a bank after? Really, what’s with the ugly hat and goofy glasses? Is it a Nicole Richie look to avoid the Buffalo Paparazzi?? After 20 years o moving here, I thought I saw it all when Harris was ousted for havong criminals with ankle bracelets do the embezzling, I mean accounting, Now this guy with his lemming following are shoving cake in their overstuffed mouths? At least they were quiet for a moment instead of patting themselves on the back for their successful coup made in collusion to control the district with a specific, race-based agenda to make more money off the poor black community which they claim they represent. What thieves, thugs and small minded shallowness of unmerited self-importance. Absolute embarrassment to this community. Absolutely insulting to anyone with a real education ad to those who actually work hard for a living, unlike these idiots on the board signing their souls over to Jim Jones, I mean Williams. Watch all the BS they put through this summer in their sneaky way when everyone is distracted.by more smaoke and mirror techniques they must have learned in Bully University..watch.
