Is There a Conflict of Interest at PS 154 Concerning DR Alison Coviello; PhD and Principal?
http://www.southbronxschool.com/2013/08/is-there-conflict-of-interest-at-ps-154.html
Let's pretend for a moment that someone is offered a brand new 2014, fully loaded Audi A5 Cabriolet and not have to pay a dime. But the person that offered this deal says no thank you and instead wishes to buy for themselves a 1977 Chevy Caprice Classic that barely drives. We would think this person as meshuga, no?
At PS 154 in the Bronx, DR Alison Coviello; PhD and Principal is ignoring that Audi, and all the freebies that come with it and instead wants that Chevy clunker.
As reported on these pages on March 1, the NYC DOE finally fed up with the ignorance that befalls the students of NYC through the usage of Lucy Calkin's cult like Readers and Writers Workshop method of not learning how to read and write, threw Lucy out with the bath water and instead installed recommended curriculum (Or is it curricula? Is there someone with a doctorate pretentous enough to tell me?) attuned to the Common Core.
