ReplyPerhaps this is worded wrong. Teachers are to upload photos and videos? Does this mean they are to walk with a camera, snap some photos, take a video, then upload to a computer in the classroom? As if things don't change in seconds. Sounds like too many steps to me. How about just put cameras in every room and hallway and they only turn on and record in the event of an emergency? If you're going to do it, do it right. Eliminate the human error factor and make everything automated. The technology is there it's just going to cost more than any tax payer will be willing to fund!

On the Blog Post Local Resident Talks Gossip About Middletown Teacher

ReplyThank you for an optimistic look at such a ridiculous situation! Though I can tell you the readers of Patch are going to roast you with very cookie cutter comments, bash Pat, bash the schools, bash the superintendent, and then have the other side bashing the 17 year old. You may even get some bone head bringing up the tolls! Setting "gossip" aside, we all want to remember Pat as a great gym teacher, swell guy, very supportive. Most of us will, but unfortunately this is a defining moment in his career in this town. In reading the police reports posted in the papers and on Patch, whether he did anything or not, it doesn't look good for him. He was at a motel with her. Other than that thank you for being positive and optimistic, there is a shortage of that in this town. If we aren't complaining, we aren't talking!
And I hear you on that Survivor thing! I could never win either!!

Whats wrong with you? They know they aren't doing their job they just don't care because there is nothing the tax payers can do. All the complaints just fall on deaf ears and they know that. And seriously do you have a thing for Dave Rodrigues? Did he diss you really bad? Of all the people who work in Middletown you pick him to single out? Your name should read "Cares about Dave Rodrigues"

His staff doesn't do any work either. Who are you kidding? Hence the fat (fatness) and lazy comments. All very VERY true!

It's too bad we have to spend extra money on the Esplanade and Forest Ave "screw ups". Who's in charge of all that? Shawn Brown? Great job chief!

ReplyWould you agree that if you are paying for your child to play then you should be able to expect results from the team? Good coaches who help improve your child's skills and a winning season? Look at it as a team not alienating your child, this isn't little league we are talking about. If it's all about the money then don't fight it, but instead make sure the legislation isn't one sided and does help you, your child, and families to come.

ReplyIf students have to pay then I think they should expect to have excellent coaches and a top notch facility and top notch uniforms and equiptment. If students cant afford it then set up a scholarship program. But once you send a parent a bill they are going to expect results, and rightfully so.

Helmet or not this accident was caused by a lady not paying attention. Even with a helmet the way that accident ended up he'd still be in critical condition. I am a huge advocate of wearing a helmet because I know first-hand it makes the difference between possibly surviving and not standing a chance. But ultimately people need to pay attention and slow down.
