thank you kevin for continuing to shine a light on the priorities our City holds dear. Our kids deserve a better education than we are willing to offer.

How about schools not being able to hire and retain teachers. There’s a school, maybe even several, where students have not had a teacher in the classroom from the early part of the school year, except for sporadic episodes. There’s something wrong when teachers don’t even want a job in Hartford. So those students get passed to the next grade minus 1 academic year through no fault of their own. Hartford, you cannot attract and retain teachers. Smh. The kids are the victims.

Hartford is chasing its teachers out these days. I can't tell you how many people at HPHS are looking to get out of the school, out of the district, and even out of the profession. It shouldn't be like this.

There needs to be a vote of no confidence for the board of education through the city for allowing this all to happen.

Does anybody really think EAP in HPD and HFD is really sufficient in accessing and providing mental health care for first responders that are either active or about to retire with a career full of horrible scenarios in their heads.If this isn’t the time to think about changing things up then don’t don’t know when. For those that know what I’m talking about that’s 5 in HFD’s recent past . Do we count the ones that did it the slow way with drugs and alcohol too? Then the count goes up. I’m so bummed and hope to never hear about another brother be in such despair. The chiefs in both departments need to get highly trained proffesionals and not co-workers in place to routinely see every single member on a mandatory basis to keep our brothers and sisters healthy once they sign up for this shit show. Kevin, when the time is appropriate you need to shine a giant spotlight on this subject. H.B. I won’t forget you brother.

Schools generally don't provide locks. It's great that someone is doing a fundraiser for that assuming all the money raised goes where it's supposed to. That doesn't change the point about travel of course.

This is hysterical.



All that has to be done is to write a grant and give it to Lowes or Home Depot...this is just laziness. Also, cash=audit....which is bad

You can get a 700.00 field trip, if you just sit down on your butt for 10 minutes and write a proposal for a great field tip. Hit that 3/4 years

Need sports equipment? Good Sports...got 18,000 on that one- 2 hour app

What is sad is those of us who are experienced and who would love to turn around Hartford can't even get in the door.

I’m not sure what schools don’t provide locks because we were provided them all through school. And my son who attends a CREC school is provided a lock each year. Here is a thought- why doesn’t hartford public schools make the students a priority instead of spending millions on useless board of education staff. Enough with the district coaches and all the made up fluff jobs. No other district does this. And have we not noticed all those made up positions don’t help. Here is what would help- smaller class sizes so students can get more attention, an actual curriculum and not the district ELA curriculum that was handed to teachers literally the day before school several years ago and teachers were told “ this is a teacher created curriculum and you will be creating it”. And this horrid Eureka Math which no teacher I know likes. Or all the wasted money on computer programs the kids HATE. Lexus which is supposed to help reading scores. Kids are mandated to go on so many minutes a week. The kids hate it because they find it boring. So I guess teachers in Hartford Schools will continue to buy basic school supplies for students while Leslie and her minions take trips and get paid to sit downtown and tell everyone how to do their job.
