I have searched for info on Karl Anderson and I will admit I have found the results interesting, if not amusing. Here's the thing. Karl Anderson did NOT complete the application for employment OR licensure for Mr. Harris. At least, I haven't heard anyone claim that someone other than Mr. Harris completed the documentation. Is Mr. Anderson the one who found the application and did some research and turned over his findings to PED? If...

Nope. I do not work at Interquest. The facts are as they are. We'll see how it goes. The law seems pretty clear that the dog sniff was good, consent to enter was granted, and the weapons were retrieved. The only question here is whether the district should discipline for this situation. Technically, they have the authority to discipline for off campus conduct during school hours, but the issue is whether they should have. My position...

Junto...I think what "Sad Parent" is saying is that there are socio economic differences between the Latino populations of Rhodes and El Rancho (in general). I would tend to agree - simply based on housing. While I don't have any figures to support this - I also believe that it isn't wise to group all Latinos in our city into one homogeneous group. I believe, as I asked Mr. Watts before, the free/reduced lunch...

This is the same clown that created the mini districts to begin with. He actually had 11 mini districts when he was around last time in 2000. They pared down to 8. District 2 for example based in the trendy NoHo area pays last I heard 2007 $60,000 a month on rent. Now he wants to tighten the belt? Send him out with no buyout.

This board knew about his past when they hired Harris. They performed throughout the search committee (in which they placed their friends), wasted district money bringing in other candidates, and made a farce of the whole hiring process. They hired their friend and now their friend hires his friends and covers up for anyone who sides with him with no thought for fair hiring and pay practices.

I think its only right that if management was given furlough days that teachers should also. If the TUSD was in such a tight budget common sense tells you to start cutting from the top. The head of the maintance department makes over 100,000 and has his own secretary. PLEASE! Talk about wasteful spending. My son's teacher goes above and beyond and offers tutoring afterschool on her own time. ...
