A reader writes to John Curry re: double dipping......

From John Curry, June 21, 2010
The Double Dipping prevents younger graduates to secure a position in education. At least 25% of all administrative positions in Ohio are currently being held by the Double Dip Administrators. The title should be "Rehire/Retire". For you see, they already are rehired before the retire. When the double dipping stops for administrators, teachers will be able to advance. This opens the door for the recent college graduate.
Certainly there is a need for special teachers for a few sections of advanced mathematics, science, foreign languages. Most logical residents have no problem with these part time teachers that are filling a need where there are few applicants. Residents have their "BRAIN FULL" of the greedy administrators that are only interested in ME AND MY POCKET and have no concern about others retirement, the students, or the faculty.
The Ohio Legislature needs to address this problem BEFORE they study the issues with the 5 retirement systems. We continue to lose while the BIG CATS get bigger. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!!! I will not vote for a school issue in a district that does not adopt a policy regarding the DOUBLE DIP LOSERS!!!!
