I would like to know "whats coming" as well. Care to elaborate?

.....and the domino's begin to tumble.....

Here's an article I found on Faircloth from this past November: [Hidden Content]

Just curious......not about Stump, but was wonderin, did Faircloth go to Permian and return there as a coach?

Trying to free up another 90,000 a year? Hmmm...... ???

Well...It's not an opinion, it's a fact. He wants a state title. I've explained the situation a few other times on this board. It's that simple. PS His wife is Assistant Superintendant in Charge of Curriculum. Ok, thanks for the clarification. I didn't realize Danaher didn't want the list released. Thanks, again.

It doesn't really matter what ANYBODY thinks...except for those seven people hired to make the decision. Young Coach, you definitely got that right !

Just puttin this out there.....Danaher definitely has the record and would be a good coach. As far as moving, I believe his wife is a curriculum specialist for the CC school district and was at one time an Assistant Principal. So, its clear that she has a career as well. Now, I've heard he may have applied as a leverage to get more money from CC, but, I think he would have to consider his wife's career as well. Anyone else have an opinion along this line?

I have to agree with you on that, Lamar1996. If a man can stay in the same area and make a move for more money, especially if it is in the same profession he has been in, he would probably move. The economics of the situation would dictate that.

I guess thats one way to have leverage in getting a raise! BISD has decided to pay Stump what Stowers was making and he will be coaching both Central and WB. That is the only way they can afford to pay him what he told PNG he wanted. So, this is true, Stump WON"T consider PNG? My bad, living in Mid County, I was thinking of Central as a middle school....ok....this thread is beginning to have some wear and tear! ;D

Looks like it should be re-titled to Danaher and Garrett. Word is that Stump will be staying at Westbrook, but can't get it confirmed.

That's a legitimate point. I know this because my wife is a teacher. True, and most of the kids could care less about the TAKS until it is their 11th grade exit TAKS, and they need to it walk. The problem the ISD's have with getting rid of teachers is, who are they going to get to replace the ones they let go? Math and science teachers don't grow on trees....Heck, it is getting harder to find elementary teachers. There is so much baloney in the teaching profession now, it is hard to find people who want to go into it, and even harder to find ones to stay. We have a young man who is teaching in our district, came into the district because of insurance, but because he has 4 kids, I look for him to leave at the end of the year. It is a combination of the baloney in the school business, and the fact he is working a second job to make ends meet. He told me if he went into his second job full time, he could triple his salary. I know in the Dallas-Ft Worth area the pay for teachers start in the $40,000 range, and while the schools within the Triangle pay (fairly) well, get outside into East Texas and the pay drops to basically state pay which is around $28,000. It is the old Adam Smith theory, if you don't pay enough, your workers will go to work for someone else, and unless there is some sort of a tie to the area, some of the best Lamar grads are going to Dallas,or Austin, or San Antonio....I have a son who is going to graduate from Lamar and is going to try and teach. He and most of his friends who are looking at teaching are already saying they are gone to Dallas, or Austin...It is the money and the fact why stay here? Listen, I know I am crabbing, and I actually like my job, but have told my son and my school kids who are thinking about teaching, see if you can do something else. It is just not the same as it was 10-15-20 years ago. Good Post, KDO. This is my 25th year as a teacher and I have seen a lot of changes. Something has got to be done about the pay scale for new teachers. I agree, districts will NOT attract good, quality teachers if they are not willing to pay them what they deserve. Students today are different and it seems the state is putting more and more pressure on teachers with TAKS. And now, in 2011, the TAKS will cease to exist and we go back to EOC (End of Course) exams. So, instead of teaching TAKS strategies for successs, which is what we have been doing masquerading as TEKS, we now have to make sure the students learn and master content. Its a vicious cycle. The power and creativity has been taken away from teachers. I teach high school Algebra and Calculus. It seems I spend so much time reviewing the basics just so that I can began to teach what I'm supposed to be teaching. The TAKS results rule right now, and you're right, it determines whether you keep your job or not.

I guess thats one way to have leverage in getting a raise! BISD has decided to pay Stump what Stowers was making and he will be coaching both Central and WB. That is the only way they can afford to pay him what he told PNG he wanted. Is this "BREAKING NEWS"? Was this decided today? Stump really is not interested in PNG anymore?

Aren't we though? LOL >

I bet you are STUMP! He's not Stump and I think asch(screen name) is Garrett.I got a PM from him. Unless Garrett has two screen names. I got a PM from "Young Coach" as well, and he said his name was Mitch somethin...that he and Garrett are friends. If this is true, could be that Garrett has him posting on here to put his name out there. I don't know.
