Board’s evaluation rates superintendent a five of possible nine

Please stop posting that the state should take over the Youngstown School District-they took over the district several years ago. Did anyone read the article that the board members were denied the funding for the trip to San Diego by the Commission? Have you made a connection to all the news stories about the commission and the school district for all these years? The commission has 2 branches-academic and financial. If you think the board is incompetent who do you think has been pulling the strings for the past 5 year?. Those people are the worst!They absolutely are not for educating children. They only need a reason to exist to have their jobs. I pity the next district to fall under their control. Disgusting!

Double homicide in Youngstown

Now that summer is right around the corner there will be others in line for Pako's fate. We are seeing them developing younger and younger because of all the children having these alcoholic drug addicted babies. The pregnant girls fill up on sodas, chips, and starburst candy throughout the school day and that's after they are getting high in their cars before school even starts in the morning. Administrators and teachers cannot punish the drug dealers or kids who are high in school unless they are caught with the drugs on them or see it happen with their own eyes. They are smart enough to get over on the system but too dumb to read or write. I've seen it, I know. Soon their children will be having more of these babies and the cycle perpetuates itself. Not everyone in poverty grows up this way, so please, bleeding hearts, your whiny excuses don't ring true. People choose their paths no matter the place or circumstances. The schools, city and churches provide a wealth of services to guide parents and children to a better way of life that didn't exist even 20 years ago. Everything is free and they feel it is owed to them. Love that welfare! We'll be having a hot time, summer in the city.

Double homicide in Youngstown

Pako Lacey was one of the worst kids at Chaney and the teachers couldn't wait to get him out of there. He did nothing but cause trouble and disrupt the education of others. He was also stupid, couldn't read or write and didn't care to learn. He was a social misfit and was completely unemployable. Too bad. I won't feel sorry for any of these a**holes that go out and get themselves killed. It is sickening. Bye bye Pako, go to heaven now.

In defense of teachers

Nobody except teachers know what goes on in Youngstown schools. We can't even make up our stories. We are afraid for our jobs if we speak out but within our ranks there is outrage and apathy. We are professionals and take our jobs seriously but you will never hear the truth about what really goes on. The real truth is hushed and never reported. The haters can opt to stay home and educate their own children since they feel teachers are the devil or move to a state where teacher salaries are not tied to property taxes. Teachers pay property taxes like everyone else. We are also over taxed. Put the blame on your legislators who will not change the law that ties salaries to property taxes. It is unconstitutional to do this and it has been tied up in the courts for years because of our lawmakers NOT TEACHERS! We are just as p-ssed off as everyone else about this. Bill Maher is right--People are STUPID.

Why so many teacher haters out there? Were your teachers so awful that you have contempt for the whole profession? I had some wonderful teachers and I am a teacher. My children were forbidden from going into education. If you want to criticize, walk a mile in my shoes.
