The Lincoln-Sudbury Regional School District decided that their Superintendent earning $157,000 per year was underpaid. They decided to extend her contract through the 2014-2015 academic year for a whopping $170,000 per year. This is an 8.3% raise! Did you get as big of a raise this year? Or were you just happy to keep your job? What do you think about towns raising your property taxes so school districts can give away taxpayer funds like this?

Studying For Tests Part 2
Studying For Tests Part 2
After preparing the material to study, students should quiz themselves regularly for at least a week before the test. The brain is basically like a muscle that grows stronger with use. Having students write out questions, then retrieve information and connect the dots repeatedly is more effective than passively reading or listening.
