Shes at it again.

Lets take a walk down memory lane YET AGAIN.. Last year we had a meeting concerning the modulators ( this too was another warning from Templeton she likes to build and move ) and here is a statement from that meeting .

Scott McKusick, a clerk of the works who examined the mold situation, said at the meeting that the mold was minor, and could have been easily remediated. He sees the administration’s decision as a poor use of taxpayer money.

Than we had this response from the committee.

 However, members of the committee responded that it is a misconception that the office was moved because of the mold. Rather, the modulators that housed the old offices were not intended to be a permanent space and didn’t suit the needs of the administrators. ( yet they were in good shape and usable and repairable)

Excuse me? Dayle Dorion didn't feel the need to move her dept and she had just as many  working for her. Also, it was equipped with air and other requirements without paying even more.

Now Miller 
 The 18-month lease includes monthly payments of $3,030 for an annual total of $36,360. Plus what it cost to move and hook up the machines. This costing well over the cost of what it would of cost to repair the modulators. Which are NOT in poor condition prior to Millers stunts.

Now moving again  
 
During a February meeting, the subcommittee recommended that the School Committee move the office — currently in a leased space at 168 Main St. — to rooms 206, 207 and 208, thinking it would be least disruptive to students there. However, some School Committee members and administrators had second thoughts upon hearing the $37,000 price tag.
But after pursuing ideas of moving to Pioneer’s second floor or the guidance office, and being unable to find a solution suitable to the majority of the School Committee, administrators believe the move to the 200 wing could be done for just $16,000.Plus Healy said it’ll cost $500 to move the photocopier.
It’s difficult, Brandl continued, during a year that’s >>>> facing the loss of 18 staff members and reducing others to half-time, to approve spending on air conditioning. <<< (  WHAT THE HELL IS THAT!) Miller said she’s put $5,000 aside for the move, which has a deadline of mid-July, but it’s unclear where the additional $11,000 will come from. 

Now due to her poor management its gonna cost even more to move her again!

I think they need to move back into the modulators and put the cost into that . Its a savings and not another disruption.

 Another waste is the amount of money we are paying her , an Asst Superintendent, and first time Principal and VP. Its off the wall and I don't think we need an Asst Superintendent especially with the low student attendance, this could just as well be handled with Miller and a secretary . ( Student enrollment will be even lower if Miller, Bacon and the VP stay)

 Scott McKusick, needs to be called in and reassess the cost of the modulators compared to the new disaster she has planned. Parents and Taxpayers need to come to this meeting and demand this . Enough of this woman's abuse of power and  poor  handling of funds. 

The last one here is Miller getting guidance from the senior class .. ( I bet the 2017 class would find this amusing ) What a damn joke.


Lets also just be clear here:
IF THIS SCHOOL COMMITTEE PAID ATTENTION AND LISTENED TO BEGIN WITH WE WOULD NOT BE IN THIS MESS TO BEGIN WITH AND " IF THEY DIDN'T PUSH DAYLE DORION OUT" .. YES, YOU READ THAT CORRECTLY!!!!!!! PVRS WOULD HAVE THE SCHOOL WE KNEW AND LOVED AND PARENTS WANTED TO SEND KIDS TOO. THIS IS ALSO ON YOU PAT SHEARER AND YOUR LACK OF COMMITMENT TO PVRS TO ENSURE A PROPER REPLACEMENT OF THE ONE YOU AND YOUNG PUSHED OUT .. INSTEAD YOU CHOSE THE EASY WAY AND HIRED A SUPERINTENDENT THAT WAS NOT SUITABLE FOR PVRS AND LOOK AT THE DESTRUCTION IT HAS CAUSED NOT ONLY FOR YOU AND OUR SCHOOL BUT ITS TEACHERS AND STUDENTS.GREAT JOB BECAUSE YOU WERE WARNED BY A COMMITTEE YOU HAD INVESTIGATE HER AND US AND NOW OUR SCHOOL IS SO BEYOND REPAIR. THE STATE NEEDS TO STEP IN NOW AND SAVE IT.BE VERY AWARE PAT PARENTS AND OTHERS HAVE BEEN WRITING THEM AND THIS WILL NOT END WELL WITH THE STATE.

NORTHFIELD — The Pioneer Valley Regional School District’s building and grounds subcommittee is feeling a case of déjà vu after reverting to its original plan of moving the district’s central office to Pioneer’s 200 wing.
During a February meeting, the subcommittee recommended that the School Committee move the office — currently in a leased space at 168 Main St. — to rooms 206, 207 and 208, thinking it would be least disruptive to students there. However, some School Committee members and administrators had second thoughts upon hearing the $37,000 price tag.
But after pursuing ideas of moving to Pioneer’s second floor or the guidance office, and being unable to find a solution suitable to the majority of the School Committee, administrators believe the move to the 200 wing could be done for just $16,000.
Also the classrooms in the 200 wing are close to the school’s main office, but removed from more heavily trafficked hallways. They’re also next to an outside door.
“I don’t like the idea of having people go through the middle of the school, security-wise,” said Sharon Fontaine, a member of the building and grounds subcommittee.
Still, the subcommittee’s recommendation must pass before the full School Committee on Thursday, June 22, which hasn’t been successful in the past four months.
Original figures The $37,000 figure represented the cost to outfit the three rooms with air conditioning, install a doorbell, door release and camera at the nearest side door, install a plug for the photocopier, move the photocopier, construct a sidewalk and stairway to the side door, and purchase dividers to create cubicles within the rooms, as was explained previously by Assistant Superintendent Gail Healy. However, Facilities Director Tim Brandl said, after receiving a lower quote on air conditioning, simply focusing on air conditioning would cost about $16,000.
“That’s to me the biggest issue,” Brandl said of the lack of air conditioning. “Being a custodian, cleaning those rooms (in the summer) was awful.”
The figure would cover the cost of three mini-split units, one per room, and the electrical work necessary to use them and the photocopier, Brandl said.
What do students think? However, the building and grounds subcommittee’s 4-to-1 decision to recommend the 200 wing still ran into some hurdles. Before the vote, Superintendent Ruth Miller said she met with the junior class a few weeks ago, next year’s seniors, and asked where they’d like to see the central office.
“They said in a nanosecond ‘Upstairs,’” Miller said. “If the voice of the senior class means anything, they are adamant.”
That option would involve using five 400-level rooms, Healy said previously, excluding the science lab and JoAnn MacPherson’s classroom. Those rooms are already air conditioned.
Miller said the students didn’t want social studies teacher Aimee Brown to have to move from Room 206. Due to staff reductions, the teachers in 207 and 208 won’t be at Pioneer next year.
“I think that was pretty much, overall, the whole junior class’ suggestion,” Pioneer junior Alex Wahlstrom said. “I think that it’s a pretty good choice … Then the school doesn’t have to pay to install (air conditioning), it’s already up there.”
Brandl agreed that “as far as saving money,” moving upstairs is the best option. No matter what location the School Committee chooses, Healy said it’ll cost $500 to move the photocopier.
It’s difficult, Brandl continued, during a year that’s facing the loss of 18 staff members and reducing others to half-time, to approve spending on air conditioning. Miller said she’s put $5,000 aside for the move, which has a deadline of mid-July, but it’s unclear where the additional $11,000 will come from.
