To get a pay raise, the teacher must score a "4" on a rubric that only has a "4' as the highest score. therefore all the administrator has to do is mark you a '3" in one area and no pay raise. My wife's evaluation "interestingly" now is lower than the last three years and no pay raise. My brother teaches around Indy where all of a sudden the highest score is 3.25 ie frozen pay raises.This is a faulty scoring system when a teacher would have to score perfect in all categories.Meanwhile, the administrators all got pay raises and two more were hired.It will be interesting to see what the administrators spouses score.
The state needs a scoring system the rewards an effective teacher not a perfect teacher. I taught bfor 40 years and never used a scoring system that required perfection to reward my top students
'Floundering' would seem to indicate the sport is not long for the world. Sixteen years seems like a long time to 'flounder.'

When one looks objectively at the metrics that matter; e.g., sponsorship, attendance an ratings, all are up.

Is this another of those silly hater deals where you hold the sport of today up against the sport of twenty years ago then try some cutesy, childlike comparison to validate your little straw man?

Here's another question: What is the specific purpose of television ratings?
It will be really nice having another parking garage across the street from the two already on Illinois's east side. And there is another huge one just north of Michigan. If we fill in the surface lot north of Vermont and tear down that ridiculously old fashioned Rink Building we can achieve something few other municipalities can boast of: a 3 full city block canyon of parking garages.

Plus, if there is a building downtown that merits imitation it is the One America tower. I propose it be the standard for all future design. And I propose we change our city name to Dystopolis.
What is it on it's way back from? Pick one, let's discuss:

- All oval series = FAILURE
- Control AOW, Kill Sport = SUCCESS
- Quality Field versus Quantity Field = FAILURE
- Driver Death/Poor Chassis Design = FAILURE
- More American/Less Foreign Drivers = FAILURE
- More Street Courses/Less Ovals = SUCCESS
- Merger/Asset Aquire with CCWS = SUCCESS
- Penske wins all the time = SUCCESS
- LOTUS barely is 3rd Manufacturer = FAILURE
- Less Major Network TV/More Obscure TV = SUCCESS
- Traditions Sacrificed for Survival = SUCCESS

These are just a few topics....how is Indy on it's way back up?

TAKEING AWAY

SBROOKSJuly 15, 2010 9:21 AM
I DO NOT THINK IT SHOULD BE LEGAL TO TAKE AWAY PEOPLES JOBS AND MOVE THEM TO A PLACE, FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF HAVING THINGS MADE CHEAPER AND PAY THE PEOPLE WHO MAKE THE PRODUCTS LESS, BECUASE THEY WILL WORK FOR LESS THEY HAVE NO CHOICE. THE COMPANY THAT MOVES TO ANOTHER COUNTRY TO MAKE THEIR POCKETS FATTER SHOULD NOT BE ALOUD TO SELL IT BACK TO AMERICA AND MAKE ANY PROFIT. THEY SHOULD HAVE TO SELL IT FOR WHAT IT COST TO MAKE IT.
