…OK, someone explain how our Mayor on WIBC today said there is no reason for an audit????

Perhaps someone needs to send the Mayor for a visit to the hospital, like the NYPD CompStat Executive Staff did with Adrian Schoolcraft when he documented what they were doing.

If only the public and elected officials actually cared enough to actively investigate and remonstrate. Morale in IPS is below rock bottom with outright unfair rubrics being played by the how much lipstick is on said teacher’s @$$, outright threats to fire teachers who do not “enforce” dress code, being told that donating PTO time to a sick bank for those with illnesses counts against you in the review, etc. Continually shuffling failed administrators from takeover schools to the ivy halls of Morton Finney, while cutting classroom resources, continues ad nauseam. ”Children First” is not the real motto or mission statement of IPS, but rather a play of words. IPS has become such a nightmare, I wouldn’t be surprised to see the EEOC became involved, if notified. This is an election year and as such, new voices need to be heard on the school board and incumbents retired. Would anyone like to hear about the daily violence against teachers?

http://diana-vice.blogspot.com/ How did you ever conclude that Eugene was the worst in Indiana? Lawyers for Wayne Township and their superintendent will also give you a run for your money. Franklin township seems to be the locus of superintendent stupidities, serial ones. The better part of wisdom would be to cast a wider net and note that public enemies are often school superintendents.

We need to get real and start stating the truth about public safety. Is money being mishandled? Yes. Are crimes being reclassified to manipulate stats? Yes. Do any street officers respect Straub? No. Why? Because he is a bookworm with no actual on the street crime experience. Does Straub surround himself with flunkies and yes men who are also unqualified? Yes. Why is noone stating these facts? Mayor Ballard, what did Indy ever do to deserve the appointment of this zero? There is a lawsuit pending in New York about how CompStat policing has failed and resulted in widespread departmental corruption. The only reason Straub isn’t personally named in it is he had the miraculous luck of already starring in the sequel to “Escape from New York 2= Watch out Indy, here comes Frank” EVERYONE knows he is bad for our city, why is everyone ignoring the gigantic elephant in the room?

Wayne has an ex super-a bit pricey. Washington had an old guy with some audit problems. Eugene’s predecessor (s) were not so hot (with the exception of the Lady). So, why all the venom for Eugene? Listen up, in the world of commerce and industry, hardly any Indiana superintendents would be hired and the reason mainly would be lack of ability. In socialist systems, anything can rise to the top and float there. What we do in Indiana is hire collective farm managers from Russia to run our agri business…into the ground.

The Polipit enhanced the WABC report by exposing the rest of Straub’s new CompStat-based plan.

It is clear that Straub brought the NY way to Indianapolis. What is scary is what that means.

In addition to Me’s WABC report, there is the Adrian Schoolcraft expose of what CompStat is doing, and it isn’t good.

Wow, TA. That was beautifully written and easy to read. I wish you would start a blog. I would read you every day. And, I have always loved your brand of liberalism.

IPS needs a quality school board with members who are more than mere puppets of White. Mary Busch is the most obedient puppet and needs to go.

This is REALLY SCARY!!! Frank Straub has brought a lot of New York City ideas to Indy. Is this one of them????? We may be in big trouble. ABDUL, please, you have to help investigate this situation!!! Eugene White can wait.
