Do the goals of RSU1 align with those of the contributing communities?

Some of the RSU1 goals.......
“…support and supplement the Everyday Math program…”   Why are we continuing to support a program that is Nationally rated among the worst math program available?
“…review the superintendent’s vision document and discuss next steps towards achieving…”  What about the communities’ goals for our education system?
“…expert and wise staff negotiations that address current economic needs.”  The vast majority of the staff are paid less than half the salary of the administrators, are the ‘expert and wise’ negotiations targeting the right employees?  Is the lay-off of multiple teachers in the Spring on 2010 followed by the quiet hiring of the superintendent’s daughter in the Summer of 2010 included in ‘expert and wise staff negotiations’ or is it simply nepotism?
Something to think about.

  1. Hmmmmm....just what we need......an"agenda driven" Board. Did the entire board approve these goals? Wouldn't it be nice for the Board to post the meeting agendas at least one week in advance? What happened to the days when School Boards used to have to publish their agenda in the newspaper?
