Our principal and a "trainer" from the Chancellor's office barged into our early childhood special ed/bilingual classroom and in ten minutes were able to "deduce" that my partner and I would get all ones on the Danielson criteria......why, because we did not have a lesson plan.....Of course we had a lesson plan.....it's the one I've had in my head for over twenty five years, aim, do now, activity, review and summation....then they came back for five minutes and even when I showed them a lesson plan, told me that it wasn't for that day, because the date above it was a different date...I had to show them the pen that I was using this day was blue and the pen that I used on the other day was black...but this was to no avail, the principal is still saying that I didn't have a lesson plan....Lesson: If I try to correct something that they say is wrong I'm called a liar. Question: Does anyone thing that these folks are interested in improvement???? They call us an Inquiry School. Well, I hate to say it, but this kind of pseudo science and attitude of superiority of these 'trainers" from the Chancellor's office in New York City reminds me of what the Nazi's did to my great grandparents when they took away their property, their dignity, their rights and their lives.... Tweed continues to be the most corrupt name in New York City. And Mayor Bloomberg is not going to go down in history as a person who met the needs of the children and families in New York City's school system. More like the person who destroyed the opportunity of our schools to serve all the children and provide opportunity. Sad, really sad.

You are 100% correct in your opinions. In Buffalo, teachers and our union are being publicly vilified for not negotiating any further on the APPR. We submitted one on time but Albany did not like it. Our submission was an attempt at fairness to teachers within the confines of the legislation. <br />The possible loss of money makes this issue a "hot" one for the public. Our district has even posted a rant against the union/teachers on the district website.<br />Thanks for your recent writing. You have been on a roll! Keep up the good work.
