I wore three inches of my shoes today. I must admit that the inundation was quite overwhelming, but I did conquer almost all. I also had an interesting meeting with the powers; I am not at liberty to discuss the meeting, but I am sure that there will be more to expose in the weeks ahead. I did attend the PSEA meeting on the retirement fund, and I know that it does not deal with technology, but in a round about way it does. The PA government in its infinite wisdom decided to delay payments to the pension fund, and now the payment is coming due. I love how government looks out for the people. The reason why this deals with technology is because now that the payment is due school districts are scrambling to pay it and technology will be cut to fulfill the monetary demand. I will refrain from lambasting those involved. tomorrow................flick

CFF is dead; there is no denying this. I do understand the reasoning behind it all, but I do not have to like it. I do believe that the US data supports this initiatives and others in PA as being viable. Viable is not always a motivating factor when it comes to budgeting. Yes, I know, the cynicism is spewing, but I again cannot help the distaste that comes from politics. It is a typical first day of school. I have been working on putting out fires, etc. I have been in 8 classrooms this morning, and the morning is not over. I am scheduled to teach four classes this week and next. It could be quite interesting, and I am sure it is. I did Promethean training over the summer to almost 30 teachers, and that went quite well, also. I had a little time right now so I thought I would begin another blogging year. Be back tomorrow........flick

I am just keeping up the blog. Tomorrow I must go to Canton, PA. I know you are wondering where the heck that is; let's just say, "Go North" and do not deviate. The workshop will deal with Promethean and its new software. I am looking forward to this. This is a follow-up of last year when I was omitted from the list. Again, another brief one......flick
