FAILED- SAISD SUPERINTENDENT ADMITS HIS 'PLAN' DID NOT WORK

SAISD Superintendent- Pedro Martinez Places Blame on Teachers UnionSuperintendent, Mr. Pedro Martinez, was on the front page last Sunday. It is clear that he's trying to figure out how to change our SAISD schools but spreading the blame around isn't going to work. See internal audit report detailing the waste, fraud and abuse regarding capital improvements in Washoe County here: http://www.washoeschools.net/cms/lib08/NV01912265/Centricity/domain/179/documents/audit%20reports/Audit%20of%20Capital%20Projects%20SIA.pdf. After this report was published in Washoe County, the School Board ignored the data and continued to ask for even further funding, where did the money go- that was every Washoe County Citizen's question. I pray that everyone understands that this is a time of crisis within our SAISD schools, so we must take action today.

SAISD PARENT CORNER- ARE CHOICE SCHOOLS THE RIGHT CHOICE?

The unfortunate news is that as our SAISD children are returning to school theyre faced with retesting for STARR'S and finals as well. Parents, you should know that all of our SAISD high school student's finals count for 15% of their total grade.

Then when we look at all these Choice Schools that SAISD believes will change some of the most impoverished communities in SAISD is one that I still struggle to understand.
