Fitness trainers fill void for P.E. teacher lost in San Rafael ...

uh, oh....the Union thugs aren't going to be happy about this trend

Hey Death N Taxes

Do you ever look at the glass as half full?

It saddens me - what is next, local English Majors take over after they lay off the entire English Department?

Honestly, Marin has more money we aught to know what to do with and this is what we give our kids?

We should be ashamed of ourselves.

....yes..when it's filled with wine.

Teachers should teach physical EDUCATION not volunteers or fitness freaks. The priorities are screwed up when education has any cuts!

Howz about firing some administrators and keeping the PE teachers?

It is really sad when we need volunteers to fill the roles that should be done by paid employees because we gave a bunch of tax breaks to the rich, filled our prisons with non violent criminals, and refused to make the tax changes to rectify it.
My wife works for an elementary school in San Rafael and we are buying the pencils and paper for her class ourselves. This is just wrong!
And then you have comments like the one from "NOBAMA".
Just an illegal alien hater? What an ignorant statement! Do you know that they are people who for the most part are just trying to make their lives better, just like you and me? Grown ups? You sound like you have the mentality of a spoiled 12 year old who has never been anywhere outside of their pitiful neighborhood. Get real!

My favorite is the Mill Valley Skatepark, all those rich moms, and a cheap a$$ plastic skatepark, all the money in mill valley and the skate park is only a fisher price play structure...That is sad.

Just wait, schools will be privatized shortly, your master will command you soon....

Strike one! Unionitis....It means getting jaded and letting the quality slip........like senioritis in high school. It is what killed Detroit. It is the reason you keep having food "tainting" episodes. It's why our bridges are not safe and Will collapse. It is why your mother in the rest home wants to die. It is why your nephew cannot read beyond a text message. These unioninsts have ruined your daughters IQ and face by allowing the presence of COKE machines in the school........she is now an utter moron with zits...I've seen her, it is sad.

In the book, "The Road to Serfdom", Friedrich Hayek gives a very easy to grasp explanation of the reasons why this occurs in every public institution from prisons to assembly lines.
When the Republicans sweep the next election...they will quote Hayek often.

...you mean schools where teachers are held accountable, and fired if they don't do a good job? A school where kids who aren't interested in learning are expelled so they don't ruin the education of other kids? A school where admin costs are trimmed down, and the focus is on actual education? Yes, the horror..the horror

You are one ignorant fool.

The reason the United States is in a state of collapse is due to the laissez faire, Uncle Milty's school of privitization that has put profit and greed above everything else.

Profits today for tapeworm economics tomorrow.

Good luck fool!
