When @PTU958 attends a public k12 council meeting to advocate for our kids, are locked out and told “we are at capacity” while Charter School representatives are welcomed in @RIDeptEd what’s the deal? Our kids matter!!
@JoannaWoodward Joanna I went through the same thing with my son when he was 6. He actually had 2. He is now an accountant and married. Miracles happen and I will be praying for your beautiful girl! 💕
Over 90% of Finnish teachers remain in education for entirety of career. How? Teachers are respected as professionals, given adequate time for planning during the school day, and more autonomy in school decisions. Maybe that's why we lose nearly 50% of teachers every 5 years!
We celebrated 200 students and their families tonight that achieved Q1 honor roll! Congrats to our students and families and thank you to our amazing educators for putting in 110% EVERY day! @pvdschools
Our coaches are knocking this work out of the park. So much so I actually forgot the DMG person was still on the screen. @justinroias@RachelRI@PVDMayor this is a waste of money that could’ve been used much more effectively. Someone is getting $ from this shady contract
6.9million dollars for a consulting company, DMGroup to zoom in from all over the country, offer no support,and make professional educators cry, and they work in a parts department at a car dealership?!@TyR_Stephens @PeterNeronha#Disgraceful@SecCardona@RISenate@RIHouseofReps
Day by day.
Matthew Slater, the Slater Family Foundation and his @patriots teammates encouraged students at @pvdschools to show up to school every day and work hard.
@PPSDTruthTeller@PVDMayor@GovDanMcKee@AInfanteGreen What in the back room deal is happening? Phone calls urging the “push through” of the DMG contract ignoring the grift and cohort of 9, yes NINE students is the data set?!? Make this make sense? RI the pay to play state-still, yet, again?!!
Can we see the DMG contract data sharing agreement? Hint: there isn’t one. Scott & Joan directed data to be sent regardless, not only for students in the 6 pilot schools, but all students in district. This is memorialized in emails.
Just going back to this: RIDE & Infante Greene need to be more transparent around school closures and lease transfers.
We are seeing the biggest transfer of public school market share to charters in our history. Wake up folks! They will continue shuttering public schools if we let them.
@EnriqueForRI Wait a second. How can the Mayor use his powers of office to advocate for favorable financial treatment for an organization whose board he chairs? How is that ethical?
@JeremySencer @pvdschools Rogel, Smiley, Infante-Greene & McKee have made a pact to only speak about the positive stories of PPSD. No one wants to address the fact that the district is hemorrhaging leadership and the leaders in the driver’s seat have no proven track record of success in any district.
A Providence School Board member says he is holding an "emergency press conference" Friday morning to talk about school closures in the city.
Last year, the state-run PPSD announced plans to shut down 2 aging elementary schools. @wpri12
