Those who do not wish to learn and whose parental units have also signified a support for this decision, do not deserve the public expenditure granted upon each student in the district. Such students should be placed in less then remedial classes or, better yet, simply be allowed to fail out of their respective grade. This would subsequently “trim the fat” of the district and possibly lower the taxpayer’s fiscal responsibility to each student in the district. By many accounts this idea and the similar ideals of others on these comments may sound callous, but this is reality- You cannot help those who simply do not wish to recieve help.FlashingLightsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099245919524883845.post-6032712068387300232009-12-04T21:10:01.353-05:002009-12-04T21:10:01.353-05:00Retirement party for Jimmy Lauro tonight I hear. I say good luck and all the best to a man who truly has given his life to Aberdeen. <br /><br />Too bad he has now aligned himself with evil in the presence of Norman Kauff. I certainly hope he distinguishes himself right off the bat. if he votes for the same professionals that Kauff keeps around like red headed step children. It will be a damn shame is all i can say. <br /><br />For me that will be the biggest disappointment and will forever negate everything I have thought of Jimmy all of these years. He has truly been an asset to the citizenry and taxpayers of Aberdeen. <br /><br />If Jimmy votes the Kauff way for these supposed professionals on his first chance to vote, all is lost.PEACHTREECOMMUNITYnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099245919524883845.post-78196159862711884272009-12-04T15:57:02.301-05:002009-12-04T15:57:02.301-05:00Be loud and curse out Norman Kauff all you want.

The article says that CME&#39;s Dave Samuels was key to negotiating the COAH amounts on that supposed developemental site that was supposed to be developed years ago. Who is Samuels to negotiate COAH? Norman Kauff must have been away so Kauffs puppetmaster must have had to make a personal appearance in his stead. It seems CME has been known to use design schematics and other assorted paperwork from other agencies and individuals and just putting their company logo on such things and submitting an outlandish bill as though they did the work.<br /><br />Anybody see the advertisements for the Township of Aberdeen seeking professional services? Yeah like that was not just more taxpayer money wasted. <br /><br />It will be the same Kauff low-lifes all over again. Hey Fred thanks for nothing. How do you spell disappointment in Aberdeen?

I mean it has cost Kauff almost $1,000,000.00 just to run his puppets every election year in Aberdeen over the past ten years. <br /><br />NJ deserves to be the national joke!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099245919524883845.post-76549639636550574842009-12-03T07:50:49.709-05:002009-12-03T07:50:49.709-05:00The award cost about #30.00 to give to Samuels at the biggest political graft and corruption convention held annually in New Jersey under the League of Municipalities Convention. <br /><br />Dave Samuels of CME and his company also just just so happen to be the 2nd largest political contributor of $$$$$ in the entire state, each and every political season. Millions in overcharged taxpayer and business owner $$$$$$$ are given back to politicians and power bosses by Samuels and many others each and every election season. <br /><br />That is why our elected officials and too many others ensure that the precious $$$$$$ connection is safe and secure by allowing the charging of exorbitant fees for muncicipal services and more are of course mostly paid with taxpayer $$$$$$$$$$$$. Our local representatives are no less guilty by allowing significant engineering fees on businesses and homeowners. Fees charged or instituted by our leadership is merely instituted to feed the political party in power, or those seeking to gain power on the back end. Such $$$$$$$$$$ contributions are the life&#39;s blood of people like our local power broker Norman Kauff ESQ. ESQ by the way stands for Every Single Quarter. <br /><br />We taxpayers over$$$$$ for that award and the annual cost is far too high. It is time for the new council members to do the right thing and go out to bid for any and all services required by our community. That would mean that any and all services for engineering, legal, purchasing, accounting and more should be mandated to go out to bid. When ????? on this before the answers have been immediate and flawed. Prove it is what I say? Just because the Mayor said we tried that and it did not work is far from the answer owed to a community in fiscal crisis. <br /><br />Just giving the likes of Dave Samuels and his ilk the keys to the taxpayer ATM, year after year, in Aberdeen is nothing short of highway robbery and a criminal enterprise orchestrated by Kauff. <br /><br />Mayor Elect Tagliarini and his team all know it. Will they merely allow Norman Kauff to once again rape our community with the same professionals year after year after year? I hope not.<br /><br />These professionals that Kauff has placed in Aberdeen for over ten years may as well just set up offices in the municipal building, they own it anyway. They own Aberdeen lock, stock and Kauff.<br /><br />The inflated cost for this site that was the basis of the award has had engineering services done to it going back twenty years. How many studies does such a property need? It is obvious that every four years is the answer merely to fund political campaigns. That is the dishonestly true answer.<br /><br />Engineering firms like CME owned now by the award winning Dave Samuels have probably been given in excess of $1,000,000.00 since Norman Kauff took over. Samuels gets such awards at conventions like that all of the time. He probably laughs at such trinkets all the way home in his chauffeured driven sedan. Can you almost hear the laughter as he leaves to return to his mansion on the hill. <br /><br />What a bargain for the taxpayers?<br /><br />Keep up the good work there Team Kauff! Just remember the oath you will take very soon says the following: &quot;so help me God&quot;. Help the taxpayers who elected you not Norman Kauff and his politically connected and beholding cronies.PEACHTREECOMMUNITYnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099245919524883845.post-70658072662589185402009-12-03T07:10:22.832-05:002009-12-03T07:10:22.832-05:00What other job anywhere is their such protected job security under the &quot;political vote insurance approvals&quot; that is TENURE? <br /><br />There is no other job with such security. Tenure needs to go. Many teachers and others are negatively affected by the dead wood that is merely protected. <br /><br />Don&#39;t get me wrong there is much to be said of leadership at the top being a contributing factor or negative influence, but too often TENURE and other considerations, fear of reprisals from outside agitators or even possible legal action or other threats that has kept this school district from getting rid of teachers, administrators and staff, who would have been gone anywhere else.REALITYSUCKSDONTITnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099245919524883845.post-68649504592688082942009-12-03T07:07:12.663-05:002009-12-03T07:07:12.663-05:00From today&#39;s Asbury Park Press:<br /><br /><br />ABERDEEN: The New Jersey Society of Municipal Engineers has honored Aberdeen municipal engineer David J.

Seems like he thinks they&#39;re doing a good job. Why can&#39;t you ever say anything positive about the teachers?<br /><br />I was informed today that all four (4) elementary schools in the district met all the indicators required under the NCLB Act and that we were able to achieve AYP in all the elementary schools. Combine this with the news that I shared with you on September 1st that the High School and Middle School also met AYP and both schools would not be under NCLB sanctions for the first time in six (6) years was a most admirable accomplishment. Now with the news shared with me today, I am excited to announce that all of our six schools that are eligible under NCLB HAVE MET AYP for the first time since the inception of NCLB.<br /> <br />This is an outstanding accomplishment for our district as we continue to embark on improving student achievement for all students in our district, and one in which I know you will agree is well deserved by all. I also wanted to take the time to thank you for working so hard, each and every day, to make this happen for our students. I wanted to thank you for all your continued support of the &quot;many&quot; initiatives put forth and your seamless implementation. I hope you can now can begin to see the &quot;fruits&quot; of your hard work and the tremendous impact you can have on students when we all focus on a common goal. Thank you again for all you do everyday and I hope you take time this holiday season to reflect on how blessed we are to be in the field of education and how important we are to shaping the lives of our future generations.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099245919524883845.post-34552853365469826372009-12-02T20:05:36.164-05:002009-12-02T20:05:36.164-05:00We love our teachers BUT? <br /><br />If teachers: <br /><br />Actually lifted the in the basement test scores and actually concentrated on ensuring that our students are fully prepared to enter the college of their choice or the workforce, that would be great. <br /><br />O&#39;h wait isn&#39;t that what they are supposed to do ? That would be their, i don&#39;t know JOBS.<br /><br />It seems all too convenient for teachers, the NJEA and others to blame administration and school board members that seek to ensure that students placed in their classes actually learn. <br /><br />Maybe teachers need to explain how many students leave our district who were average students and even above average students who are not fully prepared or competitive upon reaching college, the military or our workforce. Explain that all of you so protective of your ZERO ACCOUNTABILITY jobs. <br /><br />Finally Tenure is a curse and many in the teaching ranks know it is. That is unless the NJEA mandates otherwise.
