And remind themselves each day that it is the teachers who pay their salaries. And that of their supervisors.<br /> Any complaints by teachers regarding the lack of efforts/ethics by NYSUT attorneys should go straight to Mr. Ianuzzi. Don't waste your time appealing to senior counsel/supervisors - they are the source of the problem.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15921757.post-7550909927799450142010-09-28T20:32:06.861-04:002010-09-28T20:32:06.861-04:00Good idea.Good idea.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15921757.post-8019002987719300502010-09-28T12:16:55.323-04:002010-09-28T12:16:55.323-04:00How about a one slap rule that permits teachers to...How about a one slap rule that permits teachers to slap bad administrators?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15921757.post-42521874751683824202010-09-26T22:44:06.473-04:002010-09-26T22:44:06.473-04:00To Anon 9;10:

We know a lot is going on in the charters that would not be tolerated in the district schools.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
