Anita Ra...(How we got where we are)should be book.<br /><br />Anita Ravi was the biggest Joke I had to work with. Two years teaching in charter school was her teaching experience. She was not even currently certified to teach social studies in the state. This is the kick in the ass, before she worked for Pitt, she was interviewed for a teaching position at Schenly and did not get it. Rumor was has it Bulward thought she could not handle an urban classroom.<br /><br />Sad thing is she is still on the Gravy Train as a consultant.<br /><br />The Curriculum is horrible, these kids will no very little when they leave the PPS, Its a crime<br /><br />I do not know how she sleeps at night<br /><br />What a parasite <br /><br />Deep UndercoverAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-49258804305307213.post-31852275881775508172011-08-19T14:37:41.022-04:002011-08-19T14:37:41.022-04:00$1,000 per day is nothing compared to the payment ...$1,000 per day is nothing compared to the payment last July of $10,000 (yes ten thousand) per day for Dylan Wiliam (from London) to come to Pittsburgh to give a one-day presentation on "formative assessment."<br /><br />Dylan is the expert on "formative assessment" and this should have been a district-wide inservice. ALL TEACHERS needed to hear this, not just a few administrators! Especially at $10,000 per day! Makes no sense how exorbitant amounts of money are spent on external consultants again and again. (Worse yet, the info, does not seem to get to most teachers, where it is needed first hand, not 2nd or 3rd hand???)<br /><br />Check the Board MinutesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-49258804305307213.post-52935156572636668172011-08-19T13:55:41.928-04:002011-08-19T13:55:41.928-04:00Incredible... why would Board members agree to pay...Incredible... why would Board members agree to pay a consultant at a higher rate than the superintendent, etc.?Questionerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04349071186140766778noreply@blogger.com
