1. Cerf promised...We have so much follow-up to do!<br /><br />1. Cerf promised to survey the superintendents every year on what they think of his "administration" of the DOE. He did the base line but we haven't heard from him since!<br /><br />2. What about the $7,500 a day contract in Paterson for Cerf's Broad collegue Mike Miles? Dallas BOE told Miles that he can't do consulting work while working for them. So what happened to the contract?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09229042262802354432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9025948832913694345.post-44419008466160969292012-11-25T08:32:59.341-08:002012-11-25T08:32:59.341-08:00Ahh, Chris Whittle, TN's finest. He's sell...Ahh, Chris Whittle, TN's finest. He's selling his miracle (i.e.,profitable) edu- business all over the world. Fortune calls him the pied piper of education, leading failed enterprise after failed enterprise that drowns taxpayer coffers like rats. His latest public/private partnership is The World School.<br />The World School is just what the 1% ers have in mind for themselves:<br />http://features.blogs.fortune.cnn.com/2011/04/06/chris-whittles-plan-to-make-a-world-class-private-school/Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12813056667733621829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9025948832913694345.post-85152395294081715812012-11-24T10:05:10.710-08:002012-11-24T10:05:10.710-08:00Amen to that. I remember when Christie came to Ea...Amen to that. I remember when Christie came to East Brunswick for a town hall during budget season and compared the behavior of the legislature to a child procrastinating on a book report. And yet his Commissioner of Education is preaching accountability and performance measures while he continues to fail to produce basic materials which he has promised us -- despite having millions of Broad dollars, data crunchers up the, well lots of data crunchers, and new programs popping up like weeds. Enough. Stop him and force him to fulfill some basic responsibilities before he continues to push that cart along while restraining the horses far behind....every school in this state right now is subject to the whims of test driven data that he collects and produces while we cannot evaluate the basics for his lack of transparency and accountability. Oh, Senator Weinberg, do you recall the nomination hearing where you spoke to him about these issues? I think a follow up call is in order.
