Betty Sternberg, the sometimes controversial school superintendent will receive a report card of her own in the coming weeks from her colleagues, school board members and PTA leaders.

For the first time in Sternberg's 2-year tenure, members of the Board of Selectmen and Board of Estimate and Taxation also are being asked to rate the superintendent anonymously in a questionnaire sent out this month by the schools' administration. The results of the 7-page survey are expected to factor into whether Sternberg, who is entering the final year of her contract, is offered an extension.

The Fix Is In - Parents And Students Are Replaced By Politicians

• BOARD OF EDUCATION - "We would anticipate as a board looking at the prospects for renewal come fall," said Nancy Weissler, the Board of Education chairwoman.
• BOARD OF SELECTMEN - Selectman Lin Lavery gave Sternberg a strong vote of confidence."Betty has had incredible challenges. She is doing an excellent job with a strong board backing her. She would be very difficult to replace."Sad Lavery
• BOARD OF ESTIMATE AND TAXATION - Edward Krumeich Jr., the longest-tenured member of the BET, complimented Sternberg's handling of the contaminated modular classrooms. "I think she's working hard," Krumeich said. "I think the reaction to the mold in the modulars was the right one and they acted quickly."

Sternberg said she is looking forward to a "rigged" survey.

"I'm certainly always open to hearing different points of view from the (political) community at-large," Sternberg said.
