Beat The Press

Smooth Move Leslie !!!

Leslie Pulls A Fast One On The Local Media

Why did Leslie Moriarty wait until the media had left the Facilities Meeting last night to announce that she is about to hire a forensics expert regarding the modulars?

Just a few more things regarding a number of educational issues.

There Is No Cover Up Here

Why didn't she publicly state that her plans include having the Town Attorney do the actual hiring so that all information then becomes client-attorney privilege?

One can only assume by forensics expert she means the maintenance records investigation, etc.

Why is Betty "You Can Trust Me" Sternberg pushing the BOE into purchasing used modulars from Stamford, when there is no guarantee of proper maintenance and upkeep?

Why does the Board Of Education want to use Carp Building, the same group that put the modulars together on site, the same group they accuse of doing it wrong and being responsible for the mold issue, to put together whatever modulars are purchased for Glenville?

Why are there no contingency plans for Hamilton Avenue if the new building is not complete? Why are they taking a wait-and-see attitude?

Why is Frank Mazza denying mold in the new building, when Peter Tesei is stating Mazza told him there was mold?

Why is Sternberg pushing to weaken the Board Of Education's mission statement? By doing so, there is even less accountability for student failure.

The Board of Ed needs to stop trying to distract the parents and the public with such non-issues as the mission statement re-do and new report card formats that are harder to interpret and gives less information on student achievement.

All the Board Of Education is doing is trying to keep the single family home owners and taxpayers from getting the accountability for the modular fiasco.

The Board Of Education promised accountability to the parents and taxpayers in early March.
