No need for a Superintendent to improve any standards in Montgomery County, right?
That's why ours is in Northern Ireland this week!
From UTV Television News in Belfast, Ireland:
UTV News - Minister pushes for Irish Act
Meanwhile on Tuesday night the South Down MLA meets Jerry Weast, schools superintendent at Montgomery County, Maryland, about improving standards.And from the Belfast Telegraph:
Ruane presses for Irish language act
Meanwhile, later tonight the South Down MLA meets Jerry Weast, schools superintendent at Montgomery County, Maryland, about improving standards.But, why did "Jet Set Jerry" have to go to Northern Ireland when the Northern Ireland delegation was just HERE in August? See page 10 of the Irish National Teachers Organisation newsletter.
Consider, one week of Jerry Weast's time is worth about $9,418 tax dollars.
"In 2006, Weast went to Chicago, Miami, New Orleans, Oregon, and Boston, as well as Belfast, Northern Ireland and Tokyo, Japan to spread the word of what he has done."
