Yesterday’s WORD of the day certainly captures what occurred (or didn’t occur) last night. We the public were subjected, yet again, to Dr. Gallon’s spin on the situation. I’d like to call your attention Board Members -- it is EXACTLY his spin on this city that has gotten us in this pickle!
Questions were asked of the Board Members but the President deflected most of them and informed the public that the Superintendent would be responding to questions about the OFAC report because he was the one to whom it was addressed. The report was addressed to YOU Mr. President. Did the Board VOTE to allow the CSA to respond on behalf of the board?
There was a visitor there last night from 101.5 (David M.) who was denied the right to tape the proceedings, but he stuck it out, and more amazingly he was able to peg the double-speak, deflecting buffoonery of Dr. Gallon within 15 minutes of hearing him speak. If a total stranger can come in and get it then someone please tell me what is wrong with the seven board members who continue to buy into this non-sense?
Plainfield -- WE NEED TO DEMAND a response from our BOARD MEMBERS. Dr. Gallon no longer has the credibility to respond to the concerns of this community and according to its OWN POLICY it is the Board's RESPONSIBILITY to respond to issues that cannot be resolved between and among the public and the CSA.
I know this may be hard for you all (BOE) but YOU will actually have to work this out! You can not allow Gallon to sanction his own behavior. He obviously doesn’t get it!
Plainfield Community -- Speak OUT, Show UP and HOLD these “ELECTED” official accountable!

You hit the nail on the head --
The NJDOE's findings letter was addressed to Mr. Cathcart.
The NJDOE's finding requires that BOARD "publicly review and discuss" the findings and that the BOARD adopts a corrective plan.
Taxpayers of Plainfield have to remember that the Superintendent is an employee of the BOARD - not the other way around.
Our problem, unfortunately, is that the BOARD is equally a part of the problem.

Mr. Schaeffer and Ms. Hernandez, I couldn't have said it better my self.
SMOKE AND MIRRORS!! Gallon's comment about the 16 other positions with no certifications is a LIE!
Skullduggery indeed!
Maybe we need to start a petition to get rid of him!
I had to modify this posting a bit as some of the info "could" be considered liable...so here you go the edited version:
Wow, tomorrow will be a week since the report has been completed and made public and the BOE has done absolutely NOTHING!!! Who the heck is he .......with on the Board?? Oh yea, I forgot, he already has his hands full with with PPS employees. It's really not right that the BOE has not terminated Gallon. It's not fair to the city, to the employees, and most importantly, to the children. He is a slick talking hustler with a doctorate's degree. How is he supposed to lead a district when the majority of people have NO respect for him whatsoever. His double talking and just plain lying show he has no integrity and frankly no respect for this community at all. Well guess what, SGIII, we the community and we the employees have absolutely no respect for you either! Let's not forget, there is still the matter of the South Plainfield fraud.
LOL! Thanks for editing for me!
