Here we go! For some time, I have felt that the East Providence School Department is crumbling. I am glad that the coaches are not allowing the Budget Commission to continue its antics. Imagine........ blaming "a clerical error or miscommunication." It seems to me that this kind of mentality is the same as someone sending a check in the mail without signing it. Anything to prolong the payment. Unfortunately, once again students suffer for the rediculous decisions of the Budget Commission. If the Budget Commission had scrutinized the budget sent to them from the school department, they would have uncovered additional instances where money could have been saved. Why does the executive secretary need a $9,000 stipend? Could it be to take notes at school committee meetings and address a female as "Mr.?" You would think that she would proof-read the minutes. I was very offended to see that I was referred to as "Mr. in minutes that were sent to the Secretary of State a few months ago. Perhaps, another scrutiny should have been reducing the salary of a non-certified employee from $93,000 to that of a clerk's salary since there is no certification to warrant the position. No problem, Someone who is certified as a special educator canpossibly
take responsibility and sign off on those tasks. Congratulations coaches....for standing up for your rights. Perhaps, the rest of the employees should do the same. There is strength in numbers.
