SC Meeting

Well , Mike Duprey was at last nights meeting . He was there to fight for compensation for work he had done and not been paid for.  He looks Great but you could see it was hard for him to be there. Sadly it was hard for us too . Just seeing him was a reminder of all that is wrong . What is more upsetting  is that this man who gave so much to our school is having to pay a lawyer to fight for compensation that he has earned! What the hell is wrong with this picture?

Moving along , they talked about the audit and some problems  and lack of funds and Grants  that need to be answered by the SC as well.  Miller went on to express  how  low funds were etc.  You know peoples features speak a thousand words , and some of them SC members looked worried. She also stated that they could ask the Auditors where to do the cuts . However you could see concern on many faces.

Now I am not sure if any  of you taxpayers are aware of this but you better take heed now : The class of 2017 is a large class of School choice kids , no other to follow is this large and NONE came to PVRS this year  and word has it that parents of school choice are turning away from PVRS due to what happen last year and what they are hearing now . That loss to you will be a half million dollars , give or take a few. How will that be made up? Let me tell you, your taxes will go up.

Again we must focus on how to save and not spend . Lets start with the Superintendents building with a cost of $36,360.00 plus . This is a large amount of cash ( now at $72,720.00 second year) when we have 3 ( 4 if you count the one that could of been fixed for her highness) that are paid for already without using extra funds that  these offices could be moved into. Student enrollment is down and so space is available and Warwick is large and so is PVRS to move to. Not all offices need to be in the same building. Special ED could be put in Bernardston , for an example. These are  buildings we already pay for  why not use them to our advantage ?

 Read over the report on 12-17-15 ( citizens concerns .. he is spot on)
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6az_Rkk2vEcRWxFSWpPOGlZSk0/view

You would also notice if you go thru 2015 minutes no changes were on the audit report , yet this year we have a number of issues ( Miller was in charge than) Again, we were warned. You will also notice a number of times accounts payable is missing or not available.

 Here is when questions to the budget etc start to happen
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6az_Rkk2vEceFZINldxV2xkR2s/view

Also in the report above the Lunch report was showing positive in the 3-5 schools . Now  again its not? Why is that ? 3-24-16 continues to improve ,, read the minutes .

Secondly , The Resource officer .... That is a cost to us of $25,000.00

Read what your paying for , some is off the wall expenses.. $3000.00 for Superintendent office phone.. Really!
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6az_Rkk2vEcY0p2Y2FIbFZHYVE/view

Listen its not gonna get better  and we were warned by Templeton and also the  committee who stated not to hire her and she  clearly does not experience guilt, remorse or shame for past actions. This is what we are dealing with . She is totally emotionless. She will stop at nothing to get what she wants and we have also seen this in the past and present . We no longer have Mike to protect us or our school and she knew these action being presented now would never fly with him.She is also famous for passing the buck and not taking responsibility for her actions, is this someone we really want  leading our children or school?  

Now you have asked to start a petition , you start it I will promote it . Its up to us all to take a stand  to protect our school, students , teachers and taxpayers as well. So lets start. 

SC/Miller we are going nowhere and watching 

ALSO FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO WOULD LIKE TO SEE MIKE HE WILL BE AT THE GAME SATURDAY .

Tonight we say Goodbye to Earl McGraw

Good Evening Everyone .. Tonight I would like for us to put aside PVRS and all its

issues and ask that  we pray for the family of Earl McGraw. He may not of been a part of PVRS but he was a part of the community and a wonderful man who did so much for so many

So to Earls family we here at PVRS and the community pray for you to find peace and comfort at this time and know that you are in our hearts and prayers.

Just a thought.

For many years we have always been a safe school. Recently we are being LEAD to believe this has  changed . After speaking with many it has come to our attention we have a big problem brewing.
During open house one thing Bacon and The VP kept  stressing was safety . When did you ever feel you were not safe at PVRS?
Than this bathroom issue, escorts when leaving study halls and the  lack of trust.
It seems like what is happening here is more of a brainwashing technique than anything else. Our Superintendent  has a control issue and when you don't play along you are removed and replaced . Again we were warned.  So we did some digging and found these techniques that are used in ways to brainwash and control an environment . Alot of them fit into what we have been experiencing and the students. One thing I want to point out  is listen to your kids , because they will try and make you think the conspiracy  is with them not the Administration.


 1 - Accelerating acceptance of new ways by constantly denouncing former beliefs and values .

2- Encouraging blind acceptance and rejection of logic through complex lectures on an incomprehensible doctrine.

3- Implanting subliminal messages by stressing certain key words or phrases in long, confusing lectures.

4- REMOVAL OF PRIVACY -

5- DISINHIBITION - Encouraging child-like obedience.Poor risk assessment.

6- UNCOMPROMISING RULES - Inducing regression and disorientation by soliciting agreement to seemingly simple rules which regulate mealtimes, bathroom breaks .

7- VERBAL ABUSE  ( some teachers and past Admins experienced this )


8-CONTROLLED APPROVAL

9- Repetitively repeating a word or sentence  until its redundant. Like for instance "safety" or "our biggest concern is safety" or "our first concern is safety".(This will be done to justify there actions they clearly knew were unjustified.)

 This was repeated over and over Open House night . 

10- Needlessly implying past Administrators  wrongs or lack of in order to get you to process what they feel is the right order.  ( The Superintendent has done this since her arrival. - Rushing to the media reporting non truths about missing funds - is a good example - Principal stating  that the past Administrators did not follow what was written in the handbook and were being followed now , finding ways to put down the past Administrators in hopes to justify there action's. Just a couple of examples )   

11- The  lack of Optimism..

Just a thought............

 

 

 

Word has it

Hey all!!
Make sure to make the School Committee meeting this Thursday . There will be someone you all miss making an appearance .

REMEMBER SEPT.22, 2016 @ PVRS

Way to go Panthers

 

 

Pioneer drills Drury, 28-6

By AKEEM GLASPIE
For The Recorder

Sunday, September 18, 2016

NORTH ADAMS — The Pioneer Valley Regional School football team came into its Saturday game against Drury High School with 19 players, left with 18 still healthy, but the short-handed visitors did not sulk after losing starting quarterback Scott Perlberg midway through the first quarter. In fact, backup Alex Tyson entered and used his dual-threat ability to lead Pioneer Valley to a 28-6 win over the Blue Devils.
First-year coach Paul Worth was visibly emotional for his postgame address. Out of coaching for two years after spending 35 years at the former North Shore Tech (now Essex Tech), he said the toughness his players showed made him proud to return to the sidelines.
“I came out here and grabbed a bunch of kids that make me proud to coach,” he said. “That was guts today. Nineteen kids and we only played 11 at the end. It was a tough game, but they played really, really tough.”
Tyson threw for two touchdowns and used his legs to extend plays when in trouble. He hit Jake Wallace for a 5-yard score late in the second quarter, putting the Panthers up 14-0. Drury’s Jamal Beda looked as if he gave the Blue Devils a response with a long kickoff return to the Pioneer 30, but on next play Pioneer sacked quarterback Obilio Rodriguez, forcing a fumble and a turnover back on their own 46-yard line. Tyson finished with 111 yards passing, 46 yards rushing, two catches for 28 yards and added three interceptions as a defensive back.
Tyson said watching film during the week helped him be in position to make plays in the secondary.

“When we were watching film and they were in trips, they only throw the wheel or even a fade out of it,” he said. “Most of the time they threw tosses and we were able to execute.”
Tyson’s final two interceptions were big blows to Drury. The second came on third down late in the third quarter, and the final came on fourth down with Drury in the red zone.

With only 19 players on the team, Tyson rarely came off the field, but he said his teammates’ support gave him all the energy he needed to keep going.
“I was feeding off of them,” he said. “Every time they made a good block, every time they made a good tackle, I feed off of them. They don’t feed off me. I don’t need that from them. I just need them to work me up.”
Beda was Drury’s main offensive resource. After Pioneer Valley failed to convert a fourth down on Drury’s 24, Beda took a handoff, rumbled through the middle of the defense and burst down the left sideline for a 76-yard touchdown. Drury recovered a pop-up kick on the ensuing kickoff, but Tyson intercepted Rodriguez two plays later. Beda added a 37-yard run in the fourth quarter, taking the handoff right and cutting back left for the big gain. Beda finished with 146 yards on 14 carries.
The Blue Devils showed some positive offensive signs but penalties and missed assignments prevented them from generating consistent offense. One glaring penalty from Drury was an offensive pass-interference call that negated a 60-yard touchdown reception by Hayden Bird. Drury coach Seth Shepard said his team must work on improving the little things in addition to shoring up the penalties.
“You go back and look at the film and there’s a lot more holes than those [penalized] plays,” he said. “We had a couple good plays, popped a couple good things, but we came a little short with some flags a few times. We didn’t tackle very well today. ... Just a lot of missed assignments and we didn’t come ready to play like we should have.
