Last Nights Board Meeting ReCap

Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "Tonite's Board Meeting -Get There Early":

BOE meeting summary:

The BOE and PCT are going to use an arbitrator to settle things (unless something changes since PCT members repeatedly asked the Board to resolve things with them directly)

There were a few hundred teachers and about 40 or so parents - about 2 dozen teachers spoke about: their hard work and dedication and gave personal examples, high cost of living on Long Island, didn't like the Newsday article, reporter John Hildebrand is a liar, Thanksgiving did happen at the K Center and showed pictures, they have been writing recommendations, this blog is horrible, the kids of teachers that live here have had great educational experiences, it was rude for the website that posts salaries of teachers to have been sent around town, superintendent should be focusing on other things besides bulletin boards and class parties, the district wastes money on consultants, the contract should be for longer than 2 years

Husband of a teacher who has lived in the community for 50 years said there will always be issues like state budget cutbacks when contracts are being negotiated

Two former students spoke about teachers who made a difference in their lives

a parent asked how PCT got her address for recent mailing and wanted to know why only parents got the PCT mailing and not all community members who are taxpayers and wants a full investigation by the BOE about this
