That would be another potential reason.

time to post this article up again. Mind the date.

I did not get that from your other post. And I want to say that yes you make a valid point but that looks really bad to me.

You can be right and look bad. A board shouldn’t just support their own and to me that’s what it looks like (whether it’s true or not as your comment says)

>they may have very good reasons for publicly supporting the superintendent.

Being scared of her is one good reason.

Yup, also pretty standard. I think it's a byproduct of the fact that teachers' unions in NJ are pretty strong, so there's a lot of attention paid to abiding by the salary guides agreed upon in 3-year contracts. So let's say you're step 3 with a BA, and the contract says that position with that qualification gets $58,000 per year. You're hired at exactly that salary, but because you're starting midyear, it's prorated so you actually only get a portion of that. That's my best guess anyway, but I have seen it before.

Have you done any research into how your pension will roll over to the NJ system? You may have to pay the state department of pensions to buy credit for the years you taught out of state, and they're pretty expensive. Watch out for that.

Love your dog more than your stuff. Meaning if your dog eats your favorite shoes or tears up the sofa, don't surrender them to a shelter. Work with them and teach them and practice patience. You are their whole world and family. That's something many dog owners don't get. Wish you the best of luck. Dogs are amazing.

Eliminate single family zoning.

It’s possible that the Board has a lot of information (not discussed in public session because it involves a students educational records or health records) that led them to conclude the superintendent is in the right here. If that were the case, I could understand them showing support for their chief administrator. My point is that they may have very good reasons for publicly supporting the superintendent.

There's an interesting shot around the 11:05 mark in the NOVA Hindenburg episode, where it's just about over the Newark Ironbound. You can clearly see the Pulaski skyway, Point-No-Point Bridge and the neighboring generating station. In the distance, you can also make out the DB and Portal bridges.

Personally i think that the way she reacted was indicative of the story being true. A normal person's instant reaction if that was a lie would not be to immediately call that person a filthy liar

I’m teaching ESL at the middle school level.

Thank you! I will definitely look into it.

What do you make of the it saying a “prorated salary”? Have you ever had a contract use that wording?

It says “the Plainfield Public Schools is pleased to offer you English as a Second Language position effective September 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024 at a prorated salary of $$$$”

Doubtful. Monroe is populated by a ton of crotchety 55+ communities that don’t pay attention to this stuff. Those people clapping after the troll lashed out at that poor grandma… that was the people voting for her. Small town politics in action here.

What grade/subject will you be teaching? That makes a big difference. I did my demo lesson for a class at Plainfield HS before I got hired at my current school, which is in Newark. If I remember correctly, there were metal detectors there. Otherwise, I don’t remember anything else scary or weird. I’m an esl teacher, so I followed their esl teacher around for part of the day.

I don’t follow what you are trying to say?

There is no evidence in the allegations from either side but the board clapped for the superintendent..that’s just ridiculous to me

Unless I’m not understanding what you are saying

How many masks?

Sadly we all lose with yet another four years of clowns running this country

If there’s no way to know the truth, how could applause tell us “everything we need to know”??? Are we saying the truth is irrelevant?

You win, maga guy. There is no defense against childish, right wing, name calling.

Thought it was the Asbury Park connection center

What is Normal the house I grew up in cost $30k?

Yes I agree with you I tried Crunch when it first opened in Clifton but quickly hated it because it was always so packed, ppl constantly hoarding equipment, trainers getting privileges for clients that weren’t there and the mess so I will definitely stay away from Crunch.

Wow, I need this now.

Thank you!

I’m starting at the beginning of the year, so I’m not sure why it says that. I emailed them to ask, but I haven’t heard anything back just yet.

Ice Cream Joe wouldnt know what his name is or even where he is by then.
