Geez, I commented on the Cavangh eval column and have not been posted.
How come?
BTW
Speech teachers are not evaluated under the new eval. This will change so it is incumbent on the teacher to keep informed. Perhaps the Boro office could be of assistance.
Cheers!
How about a march to RESTORE DIGNITY TO THE TEACHING PROFESSION
