JANIS JOPLIN Firenze Sage: Dont gag, its just the school lunch program ...  [chicken nuggets]

Janis Joplin freedom's just


A North Carolina mother is upset because her preschooler’s homemade turkey sandwich was deemed unhealthy by school officials. Her daughter ate three chicken nuggets instead. Huh?

Turns out the little girl attends a state school and her turkey and cheese sandwich, banana, potato chips, and apple juice did not meet U.S. Department of Agriculture guidelines, according to the Carolina Journal.

Even lunches brought from home must meet this requirement and if they don’t, the childcare provider must give the student additional food.

In the case of this little girl, her packed lunch was supplemented with the school lunch that included chicken nuggets—and she ended up eating only three chicken nuggets that day. What’s more, the preschooler returned home with a note telling her parents that they owed $1.25 to pay for school lunch.

TEACHER TENUREjpg Firenze Sage:  Hell no, he won’t go!  [danger to kids  NYC teacher collects 100 K plus benefits for 10 yrs]

no more teacher tenure

Teacher tenure keeps bad teachers on the payroll?

Disgraced New York City typing teacher has collected 100 K a year plus benefits for the last 10 years.

In a defiant raspberry to the New York Department of Education — and to taxpayers — disgraced teacher Alan Rosenfeld, 66, won’t retire.

Deemed a danger to kids, the typing teacher –with a $10 million real estate portfolio — hasn’t been allowed in a classroom for more than a decade.

He continues to still collect $100,049 a year in city salary. And he gets health benefits, a growing pension nest egg, vacation and sick pay.

New York City Mayor Bloomberg and New York Gov. Cuomo can call for better teacher evaluations until they’re blue-faced.

But Rosenfeld and six peers with similar gigs costing about $650,000 a year in total salaries remain untouchable.

Under the New York City system, shackled by protections for tenured teachers, they can’t be fired, says the Dept. of Education.

Unions sue state for more school funds
By Sharon Noguchi, Mercury News

“To secure billions of dollars in additional funding for education, two school employee unions filed a lawsuit against the state of California on Thursday.

“The lawsuit argues that the state must repay schools the amount it’s taking away — and sooner than other funding schemes would allow.

“Faced with a state budget crisis, Sacramento has taken $8.6 billion from K-12 and higher education over two years. The lawsuit argues that the state must repay much of that, and cites a 1988 voter initiative that guaranteed minimum funding for education.

This week, the state Department of Finance suggested that schools may lose an additional $3.6 billion.

That threatened reduction “made it imperative to file” the suit, said Marty Hittelman, president of the California Federation of Teachers, which filed the suit in San Francisco Superior Court. It was joined by the Service Employees International Union Local 99, in Southern California, which represents janitors, secretaries and other support staff. The CFT represents about 100,000 teachers, librarians and other credentialed school employees, and is the smaller of two unions representing public school teachers in California.

Hittelman denied that the CFT filed the suit after polls showed most of the six propositions on the May 19 ballot badly trailing. Two of those, Propositions 1A and 1B, are key to funding education. Prop. 1B sets how much the state owes education and outlines a repayment schedule.

Even if 1B passes, the teachers union argues that schools would be shortchanged by freezing the repayment amount at $7.9 billion and deferring repayments until 2011-12.

The lawsuit argues that the state uses the wrong formula to determine whether schools will be reimbursed in the future for reduced funding.

H.D. Palmer, deputy director of the state Department of Finance, said the state owes school districts money for 2007-08, but not the current school year. “The Constitution is straightforward in this regard.”
