workers from powell valley primary school

I was wondering if anyone knows anything about the Special Education or the Paraprofessionals at pvp. I have a child that sees one and he tells me some strange things anyone know any of there names or what they are like or does anyone have children with complaints.

Why don't you just go and see for yourself what is going on? I mean...DAMN! Why get on a gossip site and find out? You never get the truth on here, except for the druggies, the cheaters, and the queers. GO TO THE SCHOOL AND FIND OUT.

I know them all personally who do you want to know about.

The cucumber is a creeping vine that roots in the ground and grows up trellises or other supporting frames, wrapping around ribbing with thin, spiraling tendrils. The plant has large leaves that form a canopy over the fruit.

The cucumber is roughly cylindrical, elongated with tapered ends, and may be as large as 60 cm long and 10 cm in diameter. Cucumbers are grown to be eaten fresh (called slicers). Those intended for pickling (called picklers) have a similar appearance. Cucumbers are mainly eaten in the unripe green form. The ripe yellow form normally becomes too bitter and sour. Cucumbers are usually more than 90% water.

Having an enclosed seed and developing from a flower, botanically speaking, cucumbers are classified as fruits. However, much like tomatoes and squash they are usually perceived, prepared and eaten as vegetables.

If this is your child then don't you think you'd KNOW who is working with your child??? Geez! Great parenting going on there. All you have to do is go to the school, or even call, and ask who all works w/ your child. Better yet, go MEET them. Every parent should know who is working with/ teaching their children. If you have concerns with what your child is telling you then it is way past time to be finding out what is really going on & who is working with your child! Spend less time on Topix & more time involved w/ you child & his/her education!!!

They are a great group of people!

most of them hang all over the gym teacher if i was his wife i would be kicking some *azz* there is more going on there than just teaching.

very true "just saying" I have seen that to hes not even good looking he has muscles but no looks teachers should no better than to act like that around children but then again all the special ed and parapros act like that I just wonder where there husbands are and why they let there wifes do that.I bet if the husbands knew they wouldnt be working there anymore

Hmmmm.... sounds like people who either work or volunteer at the school to know if other workers are "hanging all over" another worker. Makes me think you all aren't any better than the people you are downing if you have to get on Topix to talk trash about your fellow co-workers. You would think that you "would 'no' better than to act like that". I'm hoping you aren't teachers considering the horrid spelling & grammar.

my aunt hall i believe she works with special ed. well there is not one thing u can say negative about her. she has a wonderful husband and great kids!. and i love them all. she is also a GREAT woman, wife, and mother. she has helped me alot in the past years. shes real and keeps it real. i have even cried in front of that woman because i was doing wrong and she has helped me too see it was wrong and why it was wrong!

You people are morons! I worked at the school for two years and never saw anyone hanging all over the gym teacher. His wife and best friend work there too. I'm not sure if his wife is still there, but her best friend still is. He's not even that good looking, but his wife is a beauty.

Paula Wolfert's Fall Apart Lamb Shanks with Almond-Chocolate Picada
from The Slow Mediterranean Kitchen page 210, published by John Wiley & Sons:

Set 4-6 lamb shanks in the following marinade after it's cooled completely and overnight if possible.

Boil 1 bottle of full-bodied red wine for about 10 minutes until it's reduced by half. Add the following:
2 carrots, peeled and coarsely chopped
1 onion thickly sliced
1 leek - white and tender green only. Halved lengthwise and cleaned.
1 head of garlic halved horizontally
1 lemon washed and quartered
1/2 cup of drained diced canned tomatoes
1 tablespoon of oregano
1/2 teaspoon cracked black peppercorns
2 bay leaves

The following day - allow the lamb to return to room temperature. Remove from marinade and pat dry. Throw out the lemon quarters and strain the marinade, reserving the vegetables and wine separately.

Season the lamb with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet. Brown the meat in batches over moderately high heat, turning until all the sides are cooked. Transfer the shanks to large enameled cast-iron casserole.

Preheat oven to 250 degrees F. Add the reserved vegetables to the skillet with some olive oil and cook over low heat for about 15 minutes, until tender. Transfer them to the casserole with the meat.

Pour off any excess oil from the skillet. Add 1/2 cup of water to it and bring to a boil, scraping up browned bits. Boil until reduced and syrupy. Add another cup of water, bring it to a boil, scraping away. Add the wine from the marinade to the skillet and heat to a bare simmer. Add this to the casserole as well. Cover the meat and vegetables with a wet, wrinkled sheet of parchment paper and then a tight fitting lid.

Cook in the oven for 4 1/2 - 5 hours, until the meat is very tender. This is a good time to make the almond-chocolate picada (see recipe below).

Discard the paper and using a slotted spoon, transfer the lamb to an oiled shallow baking dish large enough to hold them all in a single layer. Season with salt and pepper and cover loosely with foil.

Strain the cooking juices through a fine sieve over a saucepan. Press hard to get every last drop. Skim as much fat as possible and boil the juices over high heat. Keep skimming. Reduce to about 2 cups. This should take about 15 minutes.

Scrape the picada into the sauce and cook over moderately high heat until the sauce thickens - about 2 minutes. Correct seasoning and pour sauce over the lamb.Bake for 30 minutes. Serve garnished with parsley and Paula Wolfert's recipe for oven baked polenta.

I need for "Just Wondering", to tell me about what exactly they mean by her child having complaints, please! This person put a post up on Dec. 30, 2010 and would really like some info on this matter and I only ask that you DO NOT post it on this site! I will give you information on how to reach me, where we can talk and u will be able to block your number! This is very important to me and I do not need someone posting negative comments on this site, when this is just parents with concerns! I pray you read this and will post back to let me know!

It's fine to post things on this site, too much shit swept under the rug.

Guy Mann-Dood thank you!! When this concerns kids some people get scared and some very mean! I have concerns with my child and I have asked other parents and they are very uncomfortable saying anything! I understand where they are coming from, because I do not want their child being labeled! I just need infomation about what this person was talking about and any information so I can help my child! I am very aware that things are being swept under the rug and it is time for parents to realize that things can and will happen! I have a duty not only to my child but every other child that could face the same problem! I have thought about how we are a community that believes in Gods word and love but then we fall short of what he wants us to do! I got on topixs looking for any information that might give me clues on what might be going on! I've seen parents asking questions about their kids and people was far from doing what Gods wants us 2 do! I do not care if it is my child or someone elses child, if I know something I would walk through hell and back 2 protect any child! So if anyone has information little or big, I will have a way 2 reach me, because this topixs is not a place 2 be posting names,etc.....! Thank You and please any info will help!

If your child is working with a special education teacher or a paraprofessional, then your child more than likely has an IEP. If your child has an IEP, you should have had a meeting this year, and that's when you would have met this teacher and advised about the paraprofessional. If your child doesn't have an IEP it could be a Title I teacher or classroom aide. My advice, attend a parent/teacher conference or schedule a meeting with your child's classroom teacher.

thank you..cookie dough!!

You're an idiot. You need to stfu, get off topix & get a life. You don't know anything about those people. You're just trying to start shit on here like there's not already enough. Grow up.

yes....I agree about talking about some of the stuff that is mentioned, but this is real issues and concerns!! Unless it can be helpful, do not post things that is just made 2 hurt people that does not need 2 be hurt! I need information on what "Just Wondering" posted not other people trying 2 make comments 2 shut other parents up!! I am a parent and will not give up on helping my kids just because of negative comments!!

i want to say that yes you do have iep meetings but what do they help when the child is being treated badly when the aide is working with them? so maybe people need to fired or less funded because they dont want to do their job.
