But surely, by now, the Assistant Superintendent of Curriculum has found that purchase order and given a copy to the Ridgewood News. The News would then report all the relevant information such as date of purchase, itemized list of materials purchased, unit cost, total cost, and any associated discounts, date of delivery, and so forth for TERC 2nd edition for Travell and Orchard. The News could even show this information in comparison to the material cost for Scott Foresman Addison Wesley at Willard. I wonder which one cost more?
One would thing curriculum purchase information would be at the finger tips of the head of curriculum. While they are getting that cost information, they may was well look for the same information for the Connected Math Program 2 for both middle schools. And also show the Village residents the cost being spent to train the teachers and if that training is actually aiding the teachers in reaching Highly Qualified Status. So many questions, so much more the Ridgewood News could be reporting.
>The Ridgewood News should get all those costs…it is our money.
>The RN should also ask the questions we have all been asking: What is the rationale and who is determined to force Ridgewood to eat TERC even though its presence in our school system is being fought tooth and nail?
>I don’t think the RN wants to upset the status quo. The editor, even if she lives in GR, fancies herself one of them.
>The GR editor is a Ridgewood wannabe?
>She can’t control GR but as editor of the RN, she can keep our village idiots in power. They love her for it!
>Oh, puhleeze. The editor DOES have a boss. Why don’t you go after the really big fish at RN?
>next edition of ridgewood news came out but no follow up on the cost question from the public school district
shameful
>Could it be 5:45 PM that there won’t be anymore follow-up articles on the math issue because Keith Hamas is no longer at the newspaper? He did a great job writing the math articles.
>did RN cover the math chat? does anyone know if the math moms invited the news?
>EVERYONE knew that the public was invited to the Math Chat. Dr. Brennan wasn’t given a personal invite and he came. Why not The Ridgewood News?
>I guess no one else from the ridgewood news can cover the math issue.
>This paper has zero objectivity. We should stop looking for some.
Susan Sherrill is a restuarant manager not an editor.
>The editor is doing her job at TRN. Her job is to do whatever the VOR, BOE and realtors in town tell her to do.
