❤
Still ain got no stadium
I had never seen this!!
That’s my brothers school he is going to graduate this year he is in 11 about to be in 12
turf in all school fields
The girl is my cousin
I was at this graduation 😭
Pardon me but did he say less participation in fine arts? I am a student going into my 9th year of school and I cannot believe what I am hearing.
"...we're excited to her transition." among other grammtical gaffes. This is the Superintendent y'all.
Did he say participation in the arts has gone DOWN? Isn't that a bad thing?
I wish we had that
I didn't get any of the incentives this year because of being sick and family illnesses... This saddens my heart and I blame COVID and the government for just dropping us like a hot potato... This right here simply shows you in plain terms we are about to face some terrible situations that will be worse than COVID... Who can truly afford to lose anything in this day and time... You better get a good understanding about it before jumping ship and you run into a shipwreck... I believe we need a recap of this budget and to be broken down from the years that it was flourishing to now... I have to say that you have to listen to the citizens as well as your colleagues that have been in the district for years... It truly takes a collaboration of individuals who can reach deep down in the bottom of the barrel and make a complete meal come out of it... But I am so glad I got a God that's bigger than man's/ the government budget... Thank you Jesus... Lord we need your help right away... I pray that none will lose their job nor salary but increase... I call it from the North South East and the West... in Jesus Christ Mighty Name AMENX3
I often threw against David in high school and he would warm up with the college shot put (16 lbs vs 12 lb hs shot). He would throw that thing 56-57 feet as a freshman. Needless to say if any of us thought we were going to beat him the contest was over in the warm up. Kelly Blackwell (a friend of mine at the time) beat him when David and I were freshmen for the state championship, but no one could touch him after that.
THATS MY BOY CHIBUIKE !! IM FUCKING PROUD OF YOU MAN
OMG CAMERON!! you probably don’t remember me but congratulations!
can someone explain this in fortnite terms
I don't get it, but it's funny.
Up next: MISD outsources cleaning service. No more MISD employed custodians.
It's the next logical step.
Hi and thank you for this video
So some people will be out of a job because he spent way too much money . And nothing was mentioned about auxillary workers getting a raise. MISD will probably lose more people going to districts that care about their employees
Don't look now, they already are.
The whole administration needs to go to fix this train wreck of a district.
@@IAmThatGuy640 train wreck? That's putting it lightly.
The competitive pay, or market based pay narrative, obviously does not apply to the custodial service department at the MISD. Not one word about Custodial pay. Meanwhile, teachers' pay takes up most of the budget, while they demand cleaner and cleaner facilities. Notice the small amount allotted for custodial supplies. This should mean a lesser priority on cleanliness. Which means less priority on custodial pay. Teachers won't help keep their rooms clean because they already feel they're not paid enough. There has to be a happy median somewhere. Custodial morale is at an all time low, and they are leaving in droves for better pay and less demanding work. I don't think there's one single school in the district that is not short on custodians. I could be wrong and I hope I am. What I do know, there is a huge shortage of custodians in the district. That can't be denied.
Teachers are reprimanded by admin because custodians are telling them that their rooms should be cleaned before they come in. Let’s not blame teachers because they most certainly aren’t treated like royalty. We have to place blame where it really belongs.
@Mzdedeo imagine being asked to pick up your own trash off the floor and complaing while at the same time being so tone deaf that custodial is being shafted in pay. That's pretty bad but even worse the teachers that can't be bothered to clean up after themselves are payed a premium (62000+) to absolutely fail their community and turn out more incompetent students than ever... couldn't be me.
@@Mzdedeo I'm sorry, but I find it hard to believe that a custodian would actually say to the principal "I want these rooms clean BEFORE I get to work". Why would the district need custodians? And really...a TEACHER is reprimanded because a custodian told the admin, "Hey, their room wasn't clean when I got here. They need to be reprimanded!" From past experience, here's how that conversation goes: "<Principal>, it would be helpful if the teachers would have their students pick up the laptops and books from the floor. Clean up the water they spill. Don't let them throw candy and food wrappers on the floor. Ask them to stop letting the students sharpen their pencils and letting the shavings stay on the floor. When we have finger foods for lunch, such as grapes, raisins, apple slices etc., please ask them to not throw this stuff on the floor. When they have paper ball fights and fly their paper airplanes in the classroom, please have them pick that stuff up. Please ask the teachers to wipe up their coffee they drip on the floor around their desk. And please remind them we don't dust personal items. When the teachers are finished eating at their desk, please ask them to wipe up the mess they made and throw away their food and half empty cold drink container. And the bathrooms? If they could just be monitored. The stench from students pooping on the floor, or throwing tissue paper all over the place and then peeing on it is not necessary. Most of the bathrooms look like a snow storm from all the tissue paper being thrown all over. Not to mention when they get in a wet tissue paper fight and it's all over the walls and ceilings." I swear I wish I had a dollar for every time one of my colleagues told someone about to clean up a mess they made "Eh, that's the janitor's job, don't do that." I'm placing blame directly at the feet of the teachers when it comes to this matter, because I have witnessed it time and again over the past two years. At different campuses. The conflict here is, teachers are paid a fair salary for the work they do...WHEN they are at work. Custodians are not paid a competitive wage for the work they do. They not only have to clean up after the students, they have to clean up after the teachers. A custodian's job is to MAINTAIN cleanliness, they are not a maid service. If an admin came to my work area and it looked half as bad as some of the teacher's work areas are, I'd hide. I'd be embarrassed. Not all teachers are like this, so maintaining an expected level of cleanliness isn't impossible. No one is asking the teachers to clean house. But as adults, you'd think they wouldn't sit in filth.
@@IAmThatGuy640 gee, imagine that. Responsibility. Who knew? 62k, janitors get paid less than half that. Much less. I was a custodian for the MISD and quit soon after. I won't even go into the trash dump the students created. The teachers were so entitled when it came to cleanliness. And the worse ones were the teachers who had a broom and dustpan in their classroom. As if they used it. No. Just no they don't. These teachers would even say that they were clean freaks and couldn't stand a messy room. But I had to clean up that pigpen, The area on and around their desks looked like a pig pen. Food trash, food wrappers, spilled and dried coffee/cold drinks/Kook-Aid. What was disgusting was, this trash was after their trash cans were over flowing with paper, food and empty Whataburger drink cups. But God forbid you missed a corner, or missed a piece of trash. They'd go straight to the principle and say that their room hadn't been cleaned all week. And the way they treated me and other custodians. It was like we weren't worthy of a conversation, and we were stupid. Our children have no chance. These teachers are being paid 62k a year for working a little over half a year. I wish I could score a job like that. Janitors are being paid fifteen bucks an hour, and the substitute janitors are being paid twelve fifty. That is no where near competitive. I read a reply from minkymot to MZdedeo. Minkymot hit the nail on the head. The level of disrespect for the janitors is unreal. They weren't even mentioned in this video. I laughed when mzdedeo said teachers get in trouble because they don't clean their rooms. And 400k for janitor supplies? Do you know how far that will go in the district? That might last half a year.
@@Mzdedeo when you spent most of your budget on teacher salary, allow them one day a month for "professional learning" ie: time away from work and always on a Monday (three day weekend), no accountability for classroom behaviour (classes running wild and trashing the place), and no consequence for frequent absences, yeah. Teachers are pretty much treated like royalty. And this doesn't even include time away from work (about two months total) in the summer or the five weeks off during the school year. The district doesn't want them to quit. Of course they're going to put them on a pedastal.
