With many fires burning around her, our Superintendent has another one flare up…and the Region needs yet ANOTHER lawyer… 2

If it’s one thing for sure, or Superintendent loves lawyers, so much so, we now have two working on one case. The case where Region One is denying tenure to Guidance Councilor Steve Hurley. The first meeting was held last week. I have attached a video to this post. Just so you know how well-respected Mr. Hurley is a Facebook page was started in support of him..over 355 people , teachers, students, parents, and more have signed on in support. Come on folks, get involved in your school district. Find out what is going on, GET INVOLVED.

Here is the link to the Facebook page

Patricia Cham­berlain flip-flops more than a fish our of water, she endorses and pushes for the administration of Region One to get NEW three year contracts one year into their current three year contract. BUT (time for her flip-flop) she is all for “HONORING CONTRACTS” that are only proposed contracts. Reply

Patricia Cham­berlain flip-flops more than a fish our of water, on one hand she endorsed and pushes for the administration of Region One to get NEW three-year contracts one year into their current three-year contract. BUT (time for her flip-flop) she is all for “HONORING CONTRACTS” that are only proposed contracts. If this were not real life, it would be funny. Watch the attached video and hear and watch Patricia Cham­berlain say what WE HAVE BEEN SAYING ALL ALONG…Region One Administrators…HONOR YOUR CURRENT THREE YEAR CONTRACTS.

This graph shows why the “NEW” “CONCESSION” “EXTENSION” CONTRACT PROPOSAL is worse than the last one just defeated, and should be defeated again Reply

A quick look at the latest “concession by the administrators shows that the administration still receives a NEW contract in year one of their current, in place and fully legal three-year contract, and, because, if ratified by a yes vote,  it will go into place  this year. That means next year, despite what the board of education is telling you of changing the system, the administration will be entering the final year of their “NEW” “EXTENDED” two-year contract, and will again, be able to negotiate another contract. Stop all the game playing with your tax dollars THIS YEAR! Tell the board NO again, until they advise the administration to honor  their THREE YEAR contracts they signed LAST YEAR.

Our economy, in the state it is in, is no time for the administration to be so selfish, that while everyone else is just hanging on by their fingernails, that the administration of Region One should get to throw away a  in-place, legal contract that still has two more years to run. The administration claims  it’s about educating the kids, Phil Hart ( Chair of the Region One Board of Education) said at the last board meeting ” if we have been doing this wrong, then we have been doing it wrong for several years”. Well guess what?

If it were about the kids, the administration would honor the last two years of the current, legal, in-place contract, and Mr. Hart, this is a fine time to correct past mistakes, and have the administration honor their contracts. Please click on the graph below to enlarge.
