Guest Guest Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 I could not or would not vote for someone like Bert Diaz, who is on a personal mission. I don't think he gives a rat's patootie about the students in Kearny. His personal agenda is to get even with the BOE. Hey, I think Bert should move to Newark and run for the BOE there. Having dealt with Mr. Diaz, I find him to be more on the level of playing in a garage band then running a school or setting policies at the BOE. He is very immature and not very intelligent. Go away Mr. Diaz! I doubt you will ever be elected in Kearny, and when you lose, please don't cry the discrimination crap all over again. Your a disgrace to the education system.

Silent Observer Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 Actually I know more about this topic than you think I do. Allow me to correct my choice of words- it was INTENDED as hush money. The BOE figured that if they gave Diaz his buy out, he would stay out of their hair, find a new job and leave them alone. However, Diaz took his buy out, not as hush money, but as an acceptance of what he deserved after serving the Kearny school system for roughly 20 years. To answer your other question- Guest 99- i DO have a problem with "Big Al"- I thought I made that point very clear. Apparently it takes a little more effort to get through to some people than others... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Collateral Damage Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 The only reason Bert Diaz was paid (not enough) if you ask me, is because the board started with him and his family and colleagues, simply because certain Board members have issues seeing a Hispanic individual doing well. What a corrupt, uneducated, unemployed, unworldly, bigetted board! Thanks Board of Kearny! If you never involved me in your hatred of Bert, I'd still be stuck in your pathetic little white sheet town and making NO MONEY I feel bad for the children, teachers, and parents of Kearny students Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest COLLATERAL DAMAGE Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 Since I was given that name by the BOE, I'll stick with it regarding Kearny. It's been a while since I looked at KOTW as I have tried to forget what was done to me all because of my association with Bert Diaz and his wife. I am a professional and I will express myself as one. I hear Bert may be running for the Board. I hear peopke are upset about their money being spent on his $140,000. I mean this with kindness. PEOPLE OF KEARNY - you must not revote the same board. They are uneducated, and my god! so prejudiced! Can't you see?? I'm sorry that you had to pay taxes for Bert's "settlement", but YOU voted for the Board who went after him because he's Hispanic. I was sought after because I helped his wife advance educationally. I was traumatized when this all occurred. Now, I am thankful that I am NOT working for the Kearny BOE. I work elsewhere, where helping people advance educationally is looked upon favoreably and Board members don't just decide to go after me because I am "asspciated" with someone. How silly. Who suffered in the long run by getting rid of me? The CHILDREN that I helped. I may have been traumatized but i'm AOK now. I do miss the children and the staff, but my GOD! I will never miss that corrupt Board. Ciao! Collateral Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest stupid tax payer Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 Bert has my vote and it's about time that the board was changed. Did anyone see that the state is going to investigate school construction? Maybe they should start checking the accouting practices of this board to see where the money really winds up.

Yeah, time for a change. Ever notice how every time you change your underwear, it still ends up with the same old stains. And just what school construction in Kearny are they going to investigate?

Are you upset about the stains in your underwear or the states investigation? Or is the investigation the reason you have stains in your underwear? Time will tell. I think it's time to pick up the phone so they know where to start looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest read the paper Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 the investigation the state is doing on school construction is the SCC (schools construction corp) which the state established to oversee billions of dollars the state made available for school construction. it seems the SCC is mishandling that money. it costs an avereage of 45% more for the SCC to do the construction than if the school district does it themselves. it has NOTHING to do with Kearny.

Guest read the newspaper Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 i'm repeating my post because the last one was not printed for some reason. the state is investigating the SCC which stands for Schools Construction Corp. they are handling billions of dollars overseeing school construction throughout the state. apparently the SCC is not managing their duties very well because it seems that when the SCC handles the construction instead of an individual school distrct, the costs are coming in approx 45% higher . so this "investigation" has nothing to do with Kearny. the story's been all over the Star Ledger in the past two weeks.

Guest Washington School Parent Posted April 5, 2005 Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 : I have a lot to say in this town and if I can help it Diaz will not be on boe. And I speak for most of Washinton School Parents And if he thinks he has a chance he is out of hes mined In today's observer Diaz the former principal of washington school now says he is going to run for a seat on the boe. He says he would be a breath of fresh air? Is this a bad joke or what? He had alot of support from the washington school parents back in june and when he lost his bid for principal he then has nothing more to do with us parents. He has made accusations of coruption on the boe and they have not been proven and now he wants to become one of them? He says that the boe wastes alot of tax money on palm scanners and other things the school system doesn't need but yet he took $140,000 settlement and went to the newark school system. I think we wasted $140,000 paying him off when we could use this money towards our kids education. Diaz has burned alot of bridges behind him since june and now he is hoping he can get voted in on the boe? This should be interesting in what happens and if he gets elected. Are there any Diaz supports left after the last fiasco????? Love to hear the public opinion on this one! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
