Back to School Nights should be about the students, not a special interest group!


Tonight, the trend continued.  LEA propaganda was pushed on parents of Lodi High School students.  The flyer says to contact Board members.  Parents are listening.  They are contacting Board members. They are telling me that the LEA should not be allowed to push their propaganda on school property.  Lodi has had enough. 


Lodi High School is currently ranked 292 out of 337 by NJ Monthly Magazine (a ranking used by realtors).  Why isn’t the LEA discussing how to improve education for students at the High School?


It’s time for Lodi to put students before a special interest group!


The flyer is full of misinformation.  The first line states "Our members have been working WITHOUT A CONTRACT since July 1, 2016.


Their members are working under a contract- their last contract.  They voted down a new contract last year that included a high percentage increase.  They didn't meet at all this summer.  They are using negotiations for political purposes.
