* Hat in the Ring: Sprawl Paul

Can an ordinary citizen win an election without spending any money, without accepting any donations, without circulating any posters?  That is the challenge of my candidacy in the age of social media.

I retired from teaching as of June  19, 2012 so that I could speak my mind on education without offending my bosses.  Here are three of my letters to the editor on such matters.

I received in my school mailbox this very witty  'fan letter'  from a colleague, the day after my 'Algebra Attack' appeared in The Valley News.

CORRECTION:

 This is not the first year in 24 graduations as I stated in my letter. This omission of faculty names has apparently been going on for several years, since the departure of our beloved superintendent, Carl Mock. 

Perhaps I only took notice this year since it was my last graduation as a faculty member. 

A completed graduation program, including faculty, staff and support service staff names is mailed to graduates' families over the summer, long after the excitement of the event has faded.







Junior Prom Advisor, 2001 - 2005

Being the Junior Prom Advisor from 2001-2005 was great fun and great anxiety: You could disappoint 125 'brides' every year if you messed up 
the Prom.
 Five years was more than enough!
