Yeah, this is a teaser. I'm trying to decide, do I put up yet ANOTHER damning Post today, or should I wait until tomorrow? Comments will help me to decide. You tell me, today, or tomorrow? One way or the other, Fredericksen better start packing his things and the taxpayers better brace for a huge financial loss through lawsuits.
Believe me Folks, this next story is NOT the only one we'll be publishing. Honest to God, we have been slammed with e-mails and phone calls from so many other people that have been abused by the BOE. We've got a LOT more coming.

Do it today, please. Keep in mind that the renewal vote is a week from Tuesday. Timing is key. If you as the editor see a valid reason to wait, I respect your opinion even though I disagree.
I say go with article. After reading yesterday's post about the county educational budget - I can't wait to see what's next.
Fredericksen has been holding a lot of public meetings, but what is the purpose? I have not seen his grand plan nor has he alluded to one.
Let 'er rip I, like many readers, can't get online at work and nights are so busy.
We don't have much time. There are many mistreated, falsely accusers, wrongfully terminated and worked in conditions of hostility. The governor IS aware of what is happening here. His office, as well as MSDE and Federal Dept of Ed. are watching. Let it rip.u
Most who do not like Dr Fredericksen believe they have been wronged or have heard of rumors and gossip of someone who was wronged. Good example was yesterday's post about the daughter,or son or nephew of a Perdue VP or employee, Does anyone know the correct story on that yet? The e-mails, phone calls. twitters, etc., you have received are only one side of the story.
You got rid of Tilghman and gave us Ireton
You got rid of See and gave us Simpson
Who do we get when you get rid of Frederickson
I want more than gossip, I said/he said, and rumors before I decide what I believe the truth to be. After having conversations with some teachers and 2 BOE members and some school administrators, I feel you are presenting only one side of what you are told. Would it hold up in court as facts?
A great deal of the faults being found in the system are coming down the ladder from federal and state government mandates and the local administrators are being blamed. Why? Because it is just easier to point fingers, or post rumors than to investigate what is actual facts.
If these persons believe they have enough evidence why have the lawsuits not already started? Is it because the abuse is not actual abuse, but sour grapes?
do it now man. open the faucet and let it fly.
Do board members understand that some of us with kids in the system aren't comfortable sending them email to their Board email addresses when we know emails in the computers of Moses and Messick were searched? Do they have home email addresses we could get? Or home snail mail addresses? I guess phone numbers are out of the question. Some of us are scared to say what we have to say to Board email accounts. They need to help us reach them.
Well it seems you have a lot of pending articles about Dr F and the gang. Why wait?
Lets read it!!!!!
Yeah, Joe, please bring it on. As you say, you have enough other things to fill up subsequent columns
POST IT NOW!!! If anyone thinks we can sit back and let the governor or state agencies do what needs to be done, YOU ARE MISTAKEN! They will not. We must take the lead.
Today, today, tiday!
Drop it like its hot!
Bring it on!!! Today!!!
4 Feb 12:40, Hopefully you aren't old and ignorant. Tort/Civil cases takes longer to get to court than criminal cases. Just because someone disagrees with a current regime doesn't mean they're bitter or sour. They just expect due process.
Some of us have filed or in the process of filing.
Sour grapes? Obviously, you have not been wronged. When employees are able to share their stories, publicly, let me be the first in line to say you heard it here. Someone posted that if 10% of what is posted is truth, we are on trouble.
12:40 PM
You make a good point. I will say I have seen Dr. Fredericksen around Board members and several administrators, and he could not have been more jovial or sociable. If you are one of the ones treated well, it does make it harder to believe that the people who have been intimidated and threatened are telling the truth. Just as a coach who had an affair with one girl on a team might be defended by the other team parents who say their child was never bothered so the affair must not have happened. If the coach denies it, and lots of team parents believe him, finding the truth is difficult. Few bullies have a ton of witnesses when they ply their trade.
Board members have heard him lie to the public and to the County Council. If you believed a four day week is allowed in Maryland, you were manipulated and lied to. I doubt lying is a state or federal mandate. It isn't that the Board doesn't know he's lying; it's that they think we don't know.
The community needs to understand that many of us have filed with the EEOC, but it take at last 8-10 weeks to even be assigned an investigator. They have to be provided 90 days to complete the investigation before issuing a right to sue letter.
It is quite a process and definitely not one which lends us any protection in the interim.
Joe,
How should we contact Board members if we want to avoid sending their email through a system where email gets searched? On that topic, if the superintendent has sworn he didn't give a directive to have the files searched but they were searched, are the computer techs left hanging out to dry?
sounds like mostly gossip to me
falsely accusers,
Calm down and think before you post.
12:49 PM
It doesn't take that much effort and you could find what you are seeking for yourself. Trust me, it won't hurt you.
Maybe Bill Middleton can straighten this mess out?
4:05 PM
You've seen information in the paper or on TV where Dr. Fredericksen has talked about the real possibility of the four day school week. He was on that for months. That is not legal in Maryland. It is also not gossip. If you like being lied to and manipulated, maybe you deserve four more years of this.

I know of no way to get their home email accounts or I wouldn't have asked. If you know how, please give a tiny hint. At least one Board member is not listed in the phone book. How do I contact him if not through his Board email. I did look.
Bill Middleton? He invented secret relationships in central office. WCPS needs to move forward not backward!
How do I contact him if not through his Board email. I did look.
February 4, 2012 4:25 PM
Ok, then I apologize. I was gonna suggest you check phone book but you have done that.
If you know the name of the person you want to contact you could start by doing a search on their name.
Maybe they are on facebook. You can also try LinkedIn, do a search on the board's website.
That's pretty much all I can think of right now.
Again, I apologize for coming across as a wise-ass. Have a nice night.
Do it now Joe,we're busy tomorrow with Superbowl.
I think the board should set up a post office box......make it public and let Carolyn Elmore check the mail.
Joe did not "give us" Ireton or Simpson, but he did post the truth about the predecessors of these 2 scumbags Tilghman and See. Ireton lied lied lied to his constituents, promising to clean house (Pick, Chambers,WIlbur et al.) He promised to work for the "little guy" eking out a living in the city, not the landlords and fat cats.THATS why he was voted in--and just like Louise Smith he lied lied lied about his true character. He is nothing but a dishonest spendaholic liberal Democrat that thinks he can climb the political ladder to easy street. Joe is not responsible for the despicable dishonesty of Jim Ireton.
Joe, not to be a pain, but you said our comments would determine if you posted today or tomorrow. Did more stuff come to your attention?
To set the record straight - did not SBYnews show that the City Park was dumping raw sewage into the Wicomico River. We all saw the sanitary sewer pipe.
Didn't SBYnews uncover the Salisbury Waste Water Treatment plant - HABITUALLY - polluting the Wicomico River. What about the abandoned sewage lagoons. I remember SBYnews renting an airplane and then the Mayor had the audacity of trying to declare the WWT plant a no-fly zone.
How about the Main Landfill - did not SBYnews have the health department inject a dye into the adjoining lagoon to ensure Salisbury's water supply wasn't being polluted.
How about the Salisbury RT 50 overpass - remember the plywood that was placed underneath the pandecking to keep the deterorating bridge concrete from shattering peoples windows for the vehicles passing under the bridge.
I could go on and on - but I think most people get the picture.
LONG LIVE SBYNEWS!
Signed
Thankful Citizen
Go for it , this is the type news
we want and need. The truth will set you free.
Spill it 1:39. What secret relationships did Bill Middleton invent?
6:10 PM, WELL SAID! Ireton used his friends and lied to the people.
I have filed a claim with EEOC. The process is very long. BOE please trust this community, not one man from Minnesota.
He gave the order.
Come on, Joe, bring it on!!!!

What is the purpose of a lot of public meetings? Are you kidding me? Scare tactics and nothing more. Just like the four day school week. He is putting parents in the panic mode to attack the Wicomico County Council. It has already worked. Look what happened to RINO Stevie Prettyman with her vote on BMS.
I wasn't going to say anything except to ask you Joe to post what you have today. However, if you are looking for their email addresses, try their first initial and seven letters of their last name followed by @wcboe.com , that should do it.
Anyway, just checking back to see if anything new was abreast as I still am one terminated unfairly.
Thank you all for you honest comments.
