      <description><![CDATA[I agree. Enforcing the rules universally is a must. I also think that if you have been using a teaching philosophy for many years and it has produced nothing but failure(last place on the proficiencies/5 of 30 indicators met),common sense tells you to change your gameplan. Don't see Price changing anything-just accepts last place failure every year and the school board condones it and reward him with contract extension????? The whole system has no credibility.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[For the record- I am asking the Journal to interview Price and ask him to address the questions/comments presented on these message board entries. Then, print, in your newspaper,his responses for the town to read. Please do some investigative reporting on this for the benefit of the citizens. We are now waiting for action on your part. (Who's betting the Journal will not respond to this request?)]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[that the superintendent of Monroe is willing to publicly say that if you aren't going to treat all students the same by enforcing the rules OF ALL STUDENTS, then
those rules shouldn't even be on the books!!??  I applaud her for having the sense
to figure that out -- get control of the students in all areas (hers is dress code) and I'm sure the scores will improve.  Comments?]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[the added enrollment to come with the new schools. Oh...the wonders of the Master Plan. Recall how that was saving Middletown, and the school district. The plan, that was fluff, no meat, no substance? What's the latest drop this calender from last year? District dropping $300K in attorneys, litigation, and consultants with no gain. In 20 years, Middletown's population will be 90% senior citizens. Its dying. And the audicity to state it was because of a shortened day. Look at the NEA data, shortened days improve performance and focus. Ad nauseum.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[“There is clearly a lot of dirty bath water surrounding the reality of God.  Holy wars.  Inquisitions. Animal sacrifice. Human sacrifice. Superstition. Stultification. Dogmatism. Ignorance. Hypocrisy. Self-righeousness. Rigidity. Cruelty. Book-burning. Witch-burning. Inhibition. Fear. Conformity. Morbid guilt. Insanity. The list is almost endless. But is all this what God has done to humans or what humans have done to God? It is abundantly evident that belief in God is often destructively dogmatic. Is the problem, then, that humans tend to believe in God, or is the problem that humans tend to be dogmatic? Anyone who has known a died-in-the-wool atheist will know that such an individual can be as dogmatic about unbelief as any believer can be about belief. Is it belief in God we need to get rid of, or is it dogmatism?”

      <author>likeiseeit</author>
      <description><![CDATA[Thanks, leaders like Todd Perez and Clarence Jarboe for sucking Northridge dry while they get fat pay checks and like carp suck off the filth in the school district. Because the people are not bright enough to relize when the ship is going down. The captain is still standing and smiling while he prays off the unintelligent. 
Northridge, every year, gets more and more like Dayton and their leaders. Time for a change? NO, We give him a 2 year contract because he suckered his way in under a new plan. 
They sure deserved a new stadium for that powerhouse team and the 3 to 4 games they will win. All accomplished by putting some weak teams on the schedule to look good and then lose the last 5. WOW! Let's keep bringing in the trash and run off the good. 
Todd Perez likes to get rid of anyone who speeks up to keep everyone too scared to challenge him. The school board members arecowards. Every time someone runs they say they are going to make changes and get rid of Perez and Jarboe. Once in they fall under their rules. WAKE up people! Get some balls. The board members appoint their husband and/or  kid to coach or appoint teachers who have no knowledge of the game and are only there to get a pay check. Let's be realistic winning teams build school programs. They can't keep anyone good. Everyone who wanted to help the program has left for lack of support. They get cheap people using Northridge as a stepping stone. A prime example is the current spot of Athletic Director position that they can not fill. They have had 3 in the last several years.]]></description>
