All this...and Still an "F" School

Do you watch Baynews9? I watch Baynews9? Do you like Baynews9? I like Baynews9.

If you haven't watched, you should. They ran a really neat story today for example:

You Couldn't Have Managed This Before? (updated)

Update: I personally felt that the first day seemed to go better, but after viewing a video, seeing a few pictures, the BayNews9 story, and talking to my neighbors I guess I was wrong.
In my defense I was not home for part of the first or second days, so I stand corrected.

It's D-day for the F school

   Well folks....that day we all dread has arrived. "F" school Windsor Prep is back in session.
    It has been a lovely and peaceful summer, hasn't it? Or did some of you miss our streets being used as a parking lot, fighting parents ( off course one of this writers neighbors did see two parents going at it this past Wednesday during the open house for kindergarten and first graders...Classy), speeding, stop sign running, lanes being blocked, mail boxes being run over, lawns and landscaping being damaged, and of course the traffic back ups.

Bill is Back to Reaffirm What This Blog Has Said All Along

As usual "Bill Windsor Parent" was right there ready to respond to this blog that means nothing to him:

1 week out

Well...we're just a few days out from the disaster known as "F" School Windsor Preparatory Academy, and the adjoining (Newpoint Education Partners run school) East Windsor Middle School, and I thought it would be fun to re-share a video of what traffic was like last year.

Another Satisfied (former) Employee?

I haven't taken the time to research this ( I will), but the writer was not afraid to identify them self. They also had interesting things to say about their experience working for NewPoint Education Partners.

Public funds for Private profit

  So, imagine starting a company (company 1). That company then forms a second company (company 2) which in turn applies for, and receives potentially millions in public funds, solicits donations from individuals and companies, and often provides sub par services. 
  They then hire another company (company 3)  as a"management company" that has in actuality been opened by company 1 as well. The "management company/company 3"will then build and rent property and supplies to company 2, and make the "original company/company 1" quite wealthy. 
  If the "business" fails, Company 1 will walk away with no repercussions, and be left with a lot of assets to sell. 
  Further, they will be free to repeat the whole scenario over and over and over.

What ever will that business be you ask? Take a guess...
