It's the absolutely deplorable situation that has been allowed to continue in the EAST RAMAPO SCHOOLS! King has long known of the slanted nature of the Hassidic-majority school board that has systematically been allowed by King to get away with abolishing AP courses, music, art, sports and all sorts of GROSS misconduct on the part of this board. Hassidic students DO NOT attend public school in East Ramapo ... they go to mom and pop yeshivas in homes. These schools are financed through public school taxes and it is a scandal of epic proportions. King has intimate understanding of this situation and has done NOTHING since coming to SED.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1628172601886929098.post-55326777541826103362014-12-11T20:32:11.717-05:002014-12-11T20:32:11.717-05:00And by the end they had bussedd in a claque to cro...And by the end they had bussedd in a claque to crowd the hall in Brooklyn I think it was and applaud him, Here in B-lo they gave most of the tickets to an anti teacher parent group phoney who handed them all out to his pals who then blew it off cause it was 11 degrees and snowing sideways, There were more people outside protesting than inside listening to Gepetto Bennett and his little wooden boy. Tisch didn't even come here. Wonder why>?
