Chasdei Lev is Sunday. Not today. I kind of panicked when I read its today, as I wasn't ready. Checked the email again. It's this coming sunday
ReplyDeleteCan't we just finally fire Inzelbuch?
ReplyDeleteI was a teacher at the BOE and left last year after being there over 10 years. The reason I left is that they were constantly transferring me between grades and schools, and I was constantly being asked to sub for other classes. All the teachers hate the administration, especially the attorney. You should hear what the non-Jewish teachers say about the attorney. Everyone hates working at Lakewood BOE. There's a feeling that the administration just doesn't care about the teachers or students.
ReplyDeleteThe biggest proof that the administration does not care is their opposition to the school funding case. Of course they should fire Inzelbuch, but more importantly, they should put a man (as in real man) in control of the organization. Get rid of the cowardly and submissive leadership. My gosh! We are talking public revenue of $400 million with federal funding. Shouldn't the people have SOME say in its management, most particularly now that all else has failed.
DeleteChasdei Lev presumably provides food for Rebbeim, because they are poor.
ReplyDeleteWhy are they poor? Why aren't they paid a living wage? How is it that full-time working people, who are paid by the community, need to take free food to survive? How can Mosdos make their 'non-profit' by relying on people giving Tzedaka to the Rebbeim?
Whenever I see pictures of a chaluka in Williamsburg, with the caption מי כעמך ישראל, I wonder who are the employers of these people and why are they giving Tzedaka instead of paying a living wage. Now, we have the same thing here.
Wait, until now the israeli govt not only allowed bochurim not to serve in the army, they also gave them funding to learn?! I kept being told tzionim arurim, because of how they treat the frum?
ReplyDeleteKept them on the margin.any alternative would be worse for them

DeleteHave you?
DeleteMichael is DEAD WRONG. It is like no one can discuss the horrible morale and treatment of heroes. Is there some kind of union negotiation going on that would preclude his clients from discussing the MOST IMPORTANT public issue in Lakewood, the failure of the BOE in running the schools, the organization and the solvency of the taxpayers? This whole secrecy stuff is retarded. But you will just follow your marching orders. And this Raitzik guy does not impress me. He told people that the BOE opposed the school funding case because it would make the taaxpayer financially liable for compulsory damages. There is no such thing! Also something about a state takeover. Not going to happen. And he should not be taking this nonsense from Inzelbuch that they cannot have an open public discussion. He is just a scaredy-cat like the rest of them, going with whatever Inzelbuch says, and of course the roshdei mosdos junior leaguers that ultimately control the superintendent and her cabinet, a bunch of yes-ladies, and the $300 million a year revenue organization.
ReplyDeleteLakewood, if you are men, and men are not what the Athenians called Idiots because they engage in their responsibilities of citizenship to become aware of the issues and government, the BOE, the Vaad, every elected official, IY"H, soon enough, will be out of office due to their cataclysmic failure of providing for the general welfare and that could cost taxpayers billion. I
"Compensatory damages" not "compulsory." There is no such thing as educational malpractice. And the state does not want to run Lakewood with a 10 foot pole. They are much happier just loaning money to fools that will encumber every homeowner for decades. It is unbelievable that you can fool all the people all of the time. Lakewood is unique.
