Do you realize how many votes this lemoine and lily buy with your tax dollars ? Jesus, next election get these creepy unworthy selfish thieves, out of here..........Put them to the curb, with your can of refuse. - EXISTENTIALIST MAN Thu, 01 Apr 2010 22:38:19 +0100 http://www.theind.com/cover-story/5968-the-revolving-door#comment-6813 not to mention that next school year they are cutting teacher's salaries because of a budget crunch!! wow amazing! - wow Thu, 01 Apr 2010 21:05:38 +0100 http://www.theind.com/cover-story/5968-the-revolving-door#comment-6811 interesting. but i see no mention that hardy's aide, stoshak, is collecting teacher retirement while being paid handsomely from the public dole as hardy's staffer. i also think that's who lilly was talking about, since lilly was in HR when stoshak was forced to resign from the LPSB. - really?

Proves the point, until we "clean sweep" central office and the LPSB, we are stuck with the same politics we have enjoyed the last 30 years. Central office seems to enjoy all of the benefits while our teachers struggle in the classrooms. Our students are last on the list. We have a top heavy central office. Tenure encourages promotion of bad teachers/administrators to central office. Can't fire 'em let's promote 'em! Hey, but again, we did solve that nasty hoodie/cell phone problem! Phone call last night from Leonard informed me the outside phones are up and working at LHS. Fast work! No cell phones since August 2009, LPSS provides phones in March 2010. I can hear the students cheering, now! - Pedro Thu, 01 Apr 2010 08:45:07 +0100 http://www.theind.com/cover-story/5968-the-revolving-door#comment-6796 One problem with education is educators are running the place. - PDQ Gomez Thu, 01 Apr 2010 07:24:37 +0100 http://www.theind.com/cover-story/5968-the-revolving-door#comment-6795 How'd you miss retired Coach, Ass't Sup't, State Rep, and now Legis laision guru for dept of Ed, the honorable Joe Salter?

This is being paid for with taxpayer money. This is really just the tip of the iceberg. Why do you think politicians, teachers, state employees, etc. never leave their jobs. IT'S THE RETIREMENT BENEFITS!!! ALSO THEY KNOW HOW TO MANIPULATE THE SYSTEM. BUT, WHO CARES, THE TAXPAYERS FOOT THE BILL!!!!!! And if the bill is too big they just increase our taxes!! WE ARE SOME DUMB ASSES!!! - northsidian Wed, 31 Mar 2010 16:51:39 +0100 http://www.theind.com/cover-story/5968-the-revolving-door#comment-6782 What Mr. Lilly and others like him are doing is taking a job away from a qualified and educated young worker with a young family to support. This is wrong. And you wonder why our young people have to leave the state to get employment. - yesidoknow Wed, 31 Mar 2010 15:52:55 +0100 http://www.theind.com/cover-story/5968-the-revolving-door#comment-6781 “This is a personal thing directed at me,” says Lilly. “I know it, and Mr. Hardy knows it and he knows that I know it.” so what! It still doesn't change the fact that you make CRAZY money for doing NOTHING!!!! - queenbee Wed, 31 Mar 2010 14:47:37 +0100 http://www.theind.com/cover-story/5968-the-revolving-door#comment-6780 In response to "Tired of the smoke screen," it is quite obvious that you are unaware of Rep. Hardy's efforts on behalf of the children of the LPSS. These efforts, by the way, are well documented. Pull your biased head out of a piece of you anatomical structure or you'll embarrass yourself further. At the astronomical amounts of money these rehired people are knocking down, shouldn't they be providing some sort of service to the public instead of serving themselves at the expense of the public? I am very much in awe of so-called service and arrogance provided to the public by the likes of Lilly and Samec as well as the amount of money they get paid for said so-called service and arrogance. Now, that is criminal. - TheProblemIs Wed, 31 Mar 2010 14:43:56 +0100 http://www.theind.com/cover-story/5968-the-revolving-door#comment-6772 It is amazing that Mr Hardy is more concern with the salaries of central office employees and not the conditions of the school system. Instead of talk about their salaries let's talk about the sevice they provide to the teachers, principals and parents. Let's talk about how they are still effective in the positions that they currently hold. If Mr Hardy wants to make a name for himself why not do it by creating bills that will benefit the children. - Tired of the smoke screen Wed, 31 Mar 2010 10:45:41 +0100
