Rally and Presser On August 1 For Removal of Jennifer Rogers, Principal at PS 29 in Queens
For those that do not know, there will be a rally tomorrow morning, August 1, at 11 AM in front of
PS 29 in College Point, Queens to demand the ouster of incompetent, mean, arrogant, principal Jennifer Rogers.
Jennifer Rogers, probably one of the least qualified people ever to hold the job of principal, is totally
in over her head and unqualified. Her job, which in all probability she got do to her connections of her mother, Carolyn Jones (and the Leadership Academy) former principal at PS 23 in District 10 in the Bronx.
But as with being a principal in NYC, one can do anything short of murder and still retain their position. Or just read the comments here.
The students are afraid of her, the parents are afraid of her, the community is afraid of her, and so are the teachers (except the sycophants). But not anymore after tomorrow.
Remember, press conference at 11 AM, followed by rally. And, all it takes is a politician, teachers, and a few parents for the presser and the rally. Hey, that gives me an idea....

1 – 200 of 218 Newer› Newest»I was asked by parents in the school to help their children with the special education services, and found Ms. Jones' school personnel in disarray, the services not available, and then the Principal discontinued the teacher who was helping the children. Superintendent Danielle DiMango made no effort at all to help me get the teachers and parents a respite from Jones' poisonous attitude and actions. I filed a formal complaint against Principal Jones and Superintendent Danielle Di Mango with the New York State Education Department on June 1, 2013.

Jenny Jones Rogers was placed in PS/MS 280 with the instructions to bring Gary LaMotta down by any means and she would be rewarded with a principal job. Well she did her job, now she can sit back and relax. All the tricks she learn, were from the underside belly of the kingpins from leaders of District 10 way back when and her mommy. What we have in "District 10" and 280 now is so much worse. We miss good old LaMotta.
Who is her mother's connection? All complaints about her goes no whr.
Her mother was also a principal in District 10 PS 23, Carolyn Jones. She was a real trip as well.
Rumor has it there is a higher connection than her mother. Who is it?
Don't know but Carolyn Jones and daughter had a lot friends in high places with low standards so one never knows?
Rally was great! Watch NY1 and Telemundo today.
The rally was a disgrace. The staff members who were there to "represent the voice of the school" should reflect on their own professional decisions and wronginstead of constantly pointing the finger at everyone else. I can only hope for better things for this school. People should take all of their negative energy and turn it into something positive for the CHILDREN of the school because that's what a school is about, not the rest of this nonsense.
LOL Please tell us more about how she was in the Bronx. She's still as terrible here in Queens.
You are a disgrace!!! Around 95% of staff would be glad to see her gone. I dont know what school your working in.
PS 29 Administrators = 100% negativity
PLEASE!!!
Where was the 95% of the staff today?
Ok Mrs. Rogers do you feel better now that you've said that?
No, that comment came from someone who was at the rally today
The other 95% of the staff were probably on interviews looking to transfer schools.
this woman has no morals..no heart..she thinks she is the shit..and she is..she hates everyone including the children..she talks down to every staff member..never heard where a school has so many teachers who taught there for so many years leave because of that horrible woman..this was a great school..not anymore.But how is it that she is still here making everyone miserable!!!
Oh please Miss Jones got her start cause of Mommy! She file suit against the principal who gave her a chance when she was knit whit.... she couldn't talk to the teachers at 280 either. Nobody like her there either. Nobody could understand what she was talking about with lesson plans. Guess some things never change. I wonder if she is plague with frequent yeast infections that she talk about for hours at a time. Poor little Jenny.
Well at least she found herself a man! She was on the hunt at 280. It is ashame LaMotta wasn't her type he still could have been principal. She brought him down with her lawsuit against him. Remember what comes around goes around....
The last comment made is proof that no one on this blog has the children's best interest in mind. I didn't know grown adults could stoop to this level. The only truth said is "what comes around goes around" and that should be remembered by EVERYONE posting on this page
Dont forget 6:00 PM Live from school
Telemundo will explain how she treats the hispanic community!!!!!!
Why dont you go back there Spy Eyes
IF YOU WAS THERE THEN WHY DIDNT YOU MAKE YOURSELF KNOWN AND SPOKE UP FOR HER?.....BETTER YET SENS YOUR KISS HERE...HOPEFULLY THEY WONT NEED ANY SERVICES LIKE SPEECH...BETTER STILL COME WORK FOR HER....THERE ARE PLENTY OPENINGS.....HOW DARE YOU PUT DOWN THESE TEACHERS AND PARENTS WHO ARE STANDING UP FOR THE CHILDREN.....THIS NEVER WOULD HAVE HAPPENED HAD SHE BEHAVED PROFESSIONALLY.....DID YOU READ WHAT HER FORMER STAFF SAID ABOUT HER?....EVERYONE CANT BE WRONG....WHEN WILL SHE LEARN HER LESSON?
Thank you people from the Bronx !!!
Let the revolution begin!
When DiBartolomeo told LaMotta the situation was being investigated, the principal said he’d already signed a letter that approved her for the assistant principal position, indicating that he thought the situation was resolved. But the investigation was already in motion.
And, according to the report, on Feb. 8, 2006, the day LaMotta first spoke with DiBartolomeo, Employee A received a letter from LaMotta saying he was “no longer satisfied with her job performance” and that he was going to speak with his supervisors about the assistant principal job.
Employee A told investigators she had engaged in an affair with LaMotta from 2003 to 2005. She said the relationship ended sometime in 2005. During the 2005-2006 school year, after the relationship had ended, Employee A said LaMotta began to harass her and asked her to either resign or transfer. She refused to do so.
THATS OUR MRS ROGERS!!!!
SHE HAS NO HEART..... SHE GET A HIGH BEING
EVIL TO OTHERS.
Employee A was G.M. who was left go? I think certain people might have been jealous of how pretty she was and talented.
LOL pretty and talented HAHAH omg that is hilarious! She talks nonsense and doesn't know anything about education or how to work with children. She needs to find a new career. Time for her to go. Bye bye Jenny!!
Principal Jones,
Is an evil woman. She does not care about the children nor instruction. All she cares about is herself and the $. Superintendent, DiMango is equally inefficient.
This woman has railroaded enough students out of there within the last school year. its simply not fair. The only victims here are the children.
With the significant recent changes in special education it is devastating that a person in a leadership position manipulates enrollment for statistical purposes. Of course the less special Ed population the better the school will look on paper.
It is clear that something is wrong here. Compare the school report cards and look at the numbers rather than the school grade. How is it that DiMango reported ps 29q as well developed but the state tests grades have dropped tremendously. This school has to be investigated. With the expansion of the school more children will suffer under this principal. These students will be tomorrow's leaders. We should not only have high expectations from educators but leaders and administrators need to be equally responsible.
When you are ugly in the heart it null and voids your face......she is no one to be jealous of. ....she's insecure AND not talented.....She got to where she is by being conniving threatening sneaky and mean.....she does not know how to communicate or do her job......what is there to be jealous of?.......There is a lesson for her to learn in all of this .....she needs to take the time to find out what those lessons are......jealousy NO.....pity YES.....she is an empty shell of a human being.
"I hate the little ones" and "I don't care about Pre-K". This is what inhumane Jennifer Jones has said countless of times. This is just a small example of the hate & distaste she has for children.
May the staff & her secretary that went along with Jones' lies and deception be found guilty as they aided in ruining the lives of innocent children. God is watching!!
there was a time that i viewed all this as staff members that did not like change but after hearing how she has refused to give release budgets,meet with parents, and possible 3rd party
that could help it is clear that she just does not care to reunite nor have the best interest of the kids. i give a rat butt what or how she has or does live her lifeBUT when as a parent i have to worry who will teach fifth grade (they all left) and what kind of teacher will be there for my son I raise hell WHERE ARE HIGHER UP What or who owes her much loyalty or is this an attack because the percentage minority that affect her score and chance to get tenures , from a minority school in the bronx to a growing population of non anglos in college point maybe we should call other gov agency or file discrimation charges as it seems to be a pattern to distory the future of our most precious asset OUR Kids forgive my poor english but my eyes are full of tears as after leaving a comunist country this is hard to understand how she gets away with. there are people in jail for less that what she has done with the kids teacher
DiMango & Foley are involved and should be investigated for what they have done
Don't worry Jones is going to back stab all her friends at 29. Just like she did at 280 ask Gary LaMotta and all his friends.
I like you Bronx teachers! You completely understand what we are going through. We all figured she would throw them under the bus.
Lets see justice for these children!
I'm so glad the PS 29 community is speaking out. True, there could have been more teachers present but she has so many people scared of what she might do. Glad to see all the parents. Continue to raise your voices!
I say this calls for another rally! Perhaps when school is open. Everyone is available. Strength in numbers people. Or the more the merrier! Let's give Jenny something to look forward too!
Jennifer Jones-Rogers is a terrible Principal and human being. Without even mentioning her many disgraceful and pathetic characteristics MOST importantly she has ruined the lives of children and educators at PS 29. She has no human compassion for children especially those with special needs. Add that to the fact that they are minorities. FORGET IT! She doesn't understand special education and doesn't WANT TO. She rather pat herself on the back everyday and call herself an advocate. A real advocate doesn't misinform parents, take advantage of special needs minorities, try to push special needs students into other schools, and place students on Alternate Assessment when they do not qualify for it!
Jennifer Jones-Rogers looks at any compassionate teacher who is an advocate for the students as a bug that needs to be squished. This was clear when she removed teachers from PS 29 with no justified cause and than told other teachers to find other jobs.
She deserves to be in jail for all she has done. Making license plates is the only job she is qualified for.
WOW that well written! Took the words right out of my mouth!
Wait a minute!!
I want hear more about her antics at 280.
At least Betsy had the courage to show her name on this ridiculous rant of a blog. I'm ashamed of all of you and think you have no clue what successes there have been at PS 29. We're proud of our school and proud of how we're teaching our children and preparing them for their futures. Unfortunately, individuals on this blog who hide behind the anonymity of the internet, throwing false accusations, slander, libel and outright lies is defines cowardice. What a great lesson you're teaching your children. You should all be ashamed of yourself - in fact, the productive and honorable teachers at PS 29 feel sorry for all of you. Your anger, lack of understanding, misguided perceptions and hateful rhetoric - it's a terrible world you're living in and you're creating it on your own.
But you didn't have the courage to leave YOUR name. And where are all the supporters for Rogers showing willingness to stand up publicly for her? Meanwhile we have a crescendo of criticism from 2 boroughs and 3 schools where Rogers has been.
And video of the press conference is at:

To Anonymous 8:24 am:
GOOD MORNING MRS ROGERS!
I agree. I am also a teacher in the school and I'm sure that all those negative posts are being put on this blog by those 3 people/disgruntled teachers. The parents should love principal Rogers as she does put the children first and is not afraid to hold teachers accountable.
I am a parent of a special needs child in that school. I have met with Principal Rogers on many occasions and found her to be a terrific Principal. She took a personal role in sseeing that my child received a proper eduction . . .and I will always be grateful to he for that.
As a teacher of over 20 years, I know that principals are usually afraid to take action against poor performing teachers for fear of repurcussions . . .such as that B.S. rally and all the negative comments that were posted on this blog about her. I also commend her for taking a stance and helping to weed out the teachers that shouldnt be there. We all know there are many of them.
It is a true disgrace how 3 disgruntled employees can post on a blog and create a jaded view of what is going on at PS 29. No school is perfect, but besides those 3 negative employees our school is filled with hardworking, skilled teachers who come to work everyday for CHILDREN, not to take down Jennifer Rogers and other innocent employees. It's time for positive posts to start here.
Please employees of PS29 we have to stick together and create a positive working environment for ourselves not those 3 individuals
AGAIN GOOD MORNING JENNIFER & KIM
WHAT DO ANY OF YOU KNOW ABOUT GOOD TEACHING- HAH!!!!!
Hilarious. Rogers is being protested against for firing and/or discipling bad teachers and assisting/nuturing the ones that are terrific. Boo Hoo. Thank you principal Rogers . . .we all know that a couple more teachers in the school are in desparate need of being terminated.
I'm ashamed of all of you and think you have no clue what successes there have been at PS 29. We're proud of our school and proud of how we're teaching our children and preparing them for their futures. Unfortunately, individuals on this blog who hide behind the anonymity of the internet, throwing false accusations, slander, libel and outright lies is defines cowardice.

In all my years as a professional in the school system, I have never encountered an administration staff so corrupt. The teachers are incredible,dedicated and loving. Each one works so hard to improve the lives of these children and families. I always believed that was why we chose this profession. Ironically, the more respect and concern you have for the children and their families, the more you are disliked, disrespected and humiliated by the "sorority sisters". It so sad to walk into a building where you love to work and feel afraid for the security of your job. The teachers, students, family and community of so many cultures is what keeps me going. Isn't that what being an EDUCATOR in N.Y.C.is all about? It's not about being a bunch of high school bullies who are more worried about what's for lunch and gossiping about others. The administration of our school should respect every student, educator, and family that walks through those doors. It makes me sick to see such injustice. I don't know how and why this corruption has gone so far ??? I'm so proud of my colleagues that rallied yesterday. Good job ladies and thank you!!!!!
OK, here is deal. I am been watching and reading the comments and find what is written fascinating.
One thing I have prided myself on is that I will not allow any personal information (such as names) in the comments if the person in being named is a UFT member,that means secretary as well. Of course if that UFT member is a rat, i.e. member of E4E then gloves are off. But here, names, personal stuff of UFT members are not to be used.
I have only deleted several comments over the years and have always felt that having moderator approval (except for comments for posts older than 45 days) for comments is being a big P***y.
So no names or identifying features of UFT members.
You call yourself a professional !!! HAHAHAH !!!LOOK WHAT YOUR POSTING! LIES... YOUR AFRAID FOR YOUR SECURITY BECAUSE YOU CANT TEACH AND YOUR AFRAID TO GET EVALUATED! YOU KNOW YOU NEED TO RETIRE! IT IS SUCH A SHAME . WE ARE A GREAT WELL DEVELOPED SCHOOL AND PEOPLE LIKE THIS HAVE TO BRING DOWN THE REST OF THE GREAT STAFF WHO ARE HARD WORKING AND WHO ARE REALLY ABOUT THE CHILDREN AND PARENTS. LEARN TO ADAPT AND CHANGE WITH THE TIMES. IF YOUR SCARED TO WORK FIND ANOTHER CAREER! PUT ALL THIS ENERGY INTO LEARNING AND BECOMING A REAL PROFESSIONAL AND EDUCATOR.
Now, the reason I posted this is that 1) I think it is time to unveil the mask over principals and share with the world what really goes down and 2)Ms Rogers is from my small town and I always have taken pride in my small town and find it abhorrent that we have produced a principal such as Rogers. There is no other reason, not to curry favor, or anything.
Blue and Gold forever!
So what I want to know from Mrs. Rogers friends is where did the computers go? Can you answer that question? You are so busy defending her answer that question. The senator would like to know as well as the rest of us. That is a whole lot of money to go missing.
Doe Mrs Rogers honestly think she harmed only three "disgruntled " employees???
Delusional
Mrs. Jones-Rogers show me the budget! Stop paying those high price consultants! Don't you know TC is old news to the DOE! You should call your Bronx colleagues up and they might give you a few demos and workshops. Oh wait you stabbed them too many times in the back!
If any of you think its just those 3 you are sadly mistaken. The rest of staff (and not just teachersy have had enough of her. Why do you think people left this year? Not to become administrators but to teach elsewhere where there is not so much corription. She has everyone so fooled. How is it that the people that she worked with in the Bronx are saying the same thing? More teachers would speak up but look what she does. She threatens you with saying you will be fired. Why wouldn't the superintendent meet with the parents? That's her job to do so. What are they hiding?
If you honestly think all of those comments from the "Bronx" are real, then you are fooled as well. Who puts this much time and effort into something so negative? I have been teaching in the DOE for 16 years and have never been surrounded by so much hatefulness. I am embarrassed at how some of my colleagues I have known for many years are acting. This blog needs to be closed down and people need to move on with their life. Spend time this summer with what matters... your family and friends, not posting on this ridiculous blog filled with hate. Lets be the adults we say we are and put a stop to this already
The computers were dismantled by the previous principal! Get your facts right. The budget is public knowledge! Our mayor doesn't know that? OMG what is this world coming to.
^^^67.83.165.156 Bronx NY
^^^ Hey, what did I say. No personal attacks against UFT members, nor UFT members names mentioned
Bronx Teacher... Are you from the same small town as Mrs. Jones-Rogers?
Ok never mind, I got my answer! Peter Zucker what year did you graduate AHS and what did Jen Jones ever do to you? Do you even know her? This blog is BS and need to be shut down!!!
So what, you know my name. Not like I have never shared it or hid it. Worst kept secret in the DOE. Whoopdee doo!
The blog is BS? How so? Why should it be shut down?
I'm still waiting for you to answer my questions. Why put this out there? Do you even know Jennifer? What did she do to you? What good is going to come out of this? What if it is just 3 teachers that are making a big deal over nothing? Maybe they're bad teachers. You have the "power" to shut it down and stop the negitivity, so why aren't you? Let the DOE deal with it. If Jen was your wife, mother, sister, would you want these things being said about her in a blog? Nevertheless you add a picture of her and post it on your facebook page. You don't want UFT members names being used but you don't care what people are saying about Jen, a girl that grew up in your home town? Also, her mother was a great, well respected principal for many years. Why are you allowing people to bring her into this and make completely false remarks about who she is and what she did as a principal. It's not right!!!
We need people like Bronx Teacher to let the light shine on people such as Mrs. Jones-Rogers that work at the DOE. Too many of them have sprung from the Leadership Academy and have ruined children and adults lives. She needs to go but before let's see her budget and how she manage to move those children into special ed classes. This way it won't happen again. Too bad you didn't pay attention to Gary when he was teaching you.
I agree that sometimes people need to speak up and shine a light if something it off. However, this seems like a personal attack, that's why I'm questioning it. Peter not only started this blog, he added her picture, posted it on his personal Facebook page and posted to a hometown page on Facebook. What's the real motivtion behind all this Peter?
I grew-up in that same small town as you and I don't "find it abhorrent that we have produced a principal such as Rogers." I find it sad that this is happening to Jen, the teachers, and most importantly the students. I'm hoping this all can be resolved and the students can receive the education they deserve. This blog is spreading rumors and the fact is, NOTHING is being resolved on here. SHUT IT DOWN!!!
3 Teachers = pieces of shit
Please Leave - you have no friends
Bronx Teacher:
Could you post the data on violations in the Special Education program again? Maybe other data on the school would help too.
All the personal attacks I see in the blog are against a few teachers at the school. It would be nice to refocus the discussion on Ms. Jones-Rogers performance, even if Bloomberg's DOE lets some Principals violate every rule in the book.
Your and you're. No wonder the scores are dropping
Dear Ardsley-
Let me respond.
Why did I put this out there? Heck, it's newsworthy,no? Why did NY1 put this out there? Telemundo? Channel 4? The Daily News?
I do not know Ms Rogers, I just report what I find out.
I have the power to shut this entire blog down, or just this thread? Either way, I can't and I won't.I believe in freedom of the press and the 1st Amendment. Do you?
If Ms Rogers were my wife, child or mother, I might not like it but I know that there is such a thing called freedom of the press. Should A-Rod tell the press to stop writing bad things about him?
As far as false remarks, I am not responsible for the content or opinions of commentators. As long as their are no threats of violence, harassment, stuff like that, I am fine.
As far as adding her picture, I have seen the Post do worse. As far as being on Facebook, again, NEWSWORTHINESS. In fact, show me where I wrote any attack on FB.
One thing, I see how you are hiding, and quite well, behind the veneer of anonymity.
So, who are you?
Oh, and why Ardsley, are you not upset about this;
http://ednotesonline.blogspot.com/2013/08/video-state-senator-tony-avella-calls.html
http://ednotesonline.blogspot.com/2013/07/principal-from-hell-jennifer-rogers.html
Or this;
http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/queens/parents-principal-fired-queens-article-1.1414885#ixzz2amnHW8Qu
Bottom line is children's lives, emotional well-being, academic performance, and their futures are on the line. Jones, her incoming administrative team, and current Special Ed team have a lot of explaining to do. What happened to putting the children first? Please remember that you are there to help them not damage them.
Dear Bronx Teacher, Don't understand why people are upset with your blog and the posting about Ms. Rogers when the "real" news stories are far worse. Shouldn't people be more upset over those reports? How come we don't see no protest to take down Telemundo or NY1? You are just a regular teacher from NYC that has no rights that's why!
Feels like I'm watching "mean Girls". Enter Lindsay Lohan. Grow up!
I really hate deleting posts. I really hate worse, people creating lies about others. Me too. But I can take it.
But this person, needs to know what libel is. And should know they leave IP address wherever they go.
So how did Ms. Jones go from being a teacher for one year to an AP to a Principal? What was her connection?
Being it on little Peter, bring it on! I hear that's was your nickname at Ardsley...among others.
Please, tell me more.
Why do you have to pick on Peter? His name wasn't in the paper or on the news? The state senator wasn't mad at him? Peter didn't have parents and children wanting him to get fired now did he? You really should check your facts..... Do some history checking on Ms. Jenny Jones from the Ardsley to the Bronx to Queens. I will bet she will end up in Tweed some day.
This is getting lame. But my fantastic (as one SBSB groupie once told me) intuition is taking hold. I have no problem with anyone defending Rogers. In fact it makes for inspired debate. But the way this person behaves, the location of this person's IP can lead to only one conclusion. It's Jenny's mommy Carolyn.
What makes me curious is why the invective for me? Why not NY1 or WNBC or Telemundo or Avella?
Want to debate on the merits, fine, but enough of your created fiction. Show some guts, stop hiding behind the muscles and anonymity of the Internet.
Jenny's mom... Now let's talk about her boyfriend Chuck who was kicked out of the Reading Recovery Program from NYU and District 10. Thought he could get a free ride and 6 graduate credits from NYU and DOE. He got kicked out of the program and the older Mrs. Jones was none too happy. She wanted to do in the Reading Recovery Program at her own school as pay back.
The older Mrs. Jones boyfriend Chuck... when he got kicked out of the Reading Recovery program - he dumped her. He didn't even have the requirements to be in the program to begin with. He never show up for class and was never prepared.
Our tax dollars pays your salary miss jones so if we all quit ours jobs where would that lead you ????? THE WAY WE LOOK AT IT ,WE AS PARENTS ARE YOU EMPLOYER AND YOUR FIRED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
she doesnt say good morning to teachers either...and those people who think that "those three teachers" dont have any friends, think again they are True Leaders
GO LADIES!!!!
The teachers from the Bronx support your fight! You go ladies! Wish we could have stop her back when she was here in the Bronx. It would have saved a lot heart ache for everyone around. Even Jenny Jones-Rogers mom, then she wouldn't be writing anonymously on this page either.
Thank You Bronx Teachers for supporting us...We love you....keep the information coming!!!
To the amazing teachers who had courage to come to the rally, to the parents who stood by their side and spoke up on their children's behalf, and the children who spoke up, I applaud you for your bravery and support!! PS 29 community supports you 100%!!! MRS.ROGERS MUST GO! LETS SEE A CHANGE FOR THE BETTER!!!
Where there is unity there is always victory.
Publilius Syrus
Did anyone read the school survey report from last year at PS 29? Wow the staff is really split down the middle. What a horrible place to work if you are not on the right side! Yikes no wonder there was a rally. Why would more than half the staff vote so negatively? There has to be some truth in what is being posted here. Such a small number of parents took the school survey. That is very telling as well. I can't wait to see the 2012-2013 school survey results. Bronx teacher I hope you can post them here for us to discuss.
The teachers and parents did an excellent job in exposing the corruption, abuse of power, and misplacement of students into special ed. classes.
Ms. Chavez spoke eloquently about the horrid behavior and treatment by Jones.
A principal is to be a person that respects the teachers, parents, community, and the children. Jones you and your special ed. team have done terrible things and now all that you have done is being exposed.
May this rally bring about the change so desperately needed!!
The facts are clear .....fifth grade does not have teachers to teach. two of the four fourth grade teachers assigned left. 100,000 spend on ot for sub and the library was gotten rid of to put a drama program without letting parent know oh, yes our kids now have NO access to libray book or old computer for at least research
those that always trusted her are disappointed in her lack of taking a stand. even ex president clinton faced the music and said he had made a mistake obama says the buck stops with him ----what can'n she be humble enought to either say she made mistakes or hey i did nothing wrong until she does not face the music she will be guilty so if you are her pr person you suck at it and if you know that she did not spend 100 on ot if she is not short stafff then prove it because the trust of the parents GONE
We the ones that have to tell our kids not to worry are panic
if you are lame enough to thing this is about three or four teachers wait and see
now that the rabbitt is out the bag the next rally will be large enough that it will make run for cover
Well said......nothing stronger than the power of ones voice
as parent we are not important enough for you to fight for us
why dont you have a press release of our own
jenifer where is your voice
She and the special ed committee should not be allowed to return in September. This investigation has to begin before the school year begins! Parents start a petition to make sure they can not return to PS 29!!
She is a horrible Principal. She is condescending and rude. She took an innocent issue with my son and made it into a sexual issue. I was told from a family member that was a teachers assistant at PS 29 about all the sex talk that went on there between the teachers and Ms. Jones. She must have sex on the brain and assumes the kids do as well. He was questioned about his living situation at home and if he has ever seen or heard anything sexual from his parents. I was told to take him to a therapist from their parent teacher coordinator for a boyish prank. Seriously?? They were warned never to question him unless we (both mother and father)were present. After that we were called in for every little thing. He started to struggle after she started to bully him for every little thing. I am so happy he is out of that school. He did great until she came in. I really wish I knew all of this when he was attending the school I went to as a child. I would have pursued having her investigated. Get her out before more children suffer under her unprofessional ways.
This is crazy !
The Rogers family seem like nice people. At least from the pictures posted on "The Knot" Rogers & Jones Wedding July 2011. Hope they won't be to much of a shock for them. Check out the bio on Mrs. Jones-Rogers how she was inspired by family to go into education....
Thanks for the tip on her bio. If you read it you will see that Mrs. Rogers work at Columbia Teacher's College as a consultant. This answers why she is still keeping TC in the school. She owes them. They kept her on payroll when she didn't have a job after leaving the Bronx. Mrs. Rogers thanks for the bio on "The Knot". All the parents from PS29 should check it out to see how their leader lives it up when she is not working....British Virgin Islands, Sundance , Hamptons Wrigley Field. Wow where does she get the money? Computer labs?
Yes ! I heard they will post it in her
husband home town too.... So Sad !!!!
The pictures from "The Knot" just came down.
I have a copy of the photo's
The tennis Opening Sept 2011 on a date on school time when she left at 1:30.
The photo has the date. Made a copy of all the photos if need be.
How did she leave the school on the second day of the school opening ? She is a principal ?
Does District know about that ?
as much as we dislike her action lets not go to her level let stay focus on why we started all this ......... our kids who will teach fifth grade.....when is our library back the computer and stop her from coming back to ruin what is left...
let continue to keep our mission in the mind of those that can help someone should prganized a follow up call to the official that came hold their feet to the fire
I wonder if she clocked out for Tennis Open? Or just left? This calls for an investigation as well. If someone could go back in time, would she have met with Senator Avella and answered all his questions.
This ridiculous this is not a witch hunt lets stick to the facts and work on the improvement of the school. Lets keep it professional not petty stuff.
If you are city employee that is suppose to be at work at a certain time and you post your picture with date and time at a Tennis Match (The US Open no less) what facts are you not sticking to? The staff and students at PS 29 deserve to have leader who is present during school time, especially the first week of school. Just the facts madame. Bronx Teacher wasn't the one who posted the pictures on "The Knot" ! Oh from the posts above she did the same thing with a previous boyfriend in the Bronx checking out early to go to a Tennis Match.
Sending love to THE BRONX
This is about children not getting services teachers leaving hostile environment Not about if she left to go to a tennis match that is the least of the problem.
Leaving to go to a Tennis Match on school time is totally under investigation . The second day of school you should be in the school if your a Principal. Can a teacher leave on the second day of school ?
Who covered up that day ?
WHEN IS THE SECOND RALLY TAKEN PLACE
IN SEPTEMBER ? I NEED TO TAKE A DAY OFF FROM
WORK TO JOIN THE TEACHERS. CAN THE
BRONX PEOPLE HELP WITH THE SUPPORT TOO ?
CONCERN PARENT. MY CHILD IS ENTERING
4TH GRADE AND WE NEED TO GET EVERYTHING
IN PLACE ASAP ! WE NEED A PRINCIPAL !
I JUST HEARD ALL ABOUT THIS YESTERDAY I WISH I WAS AROUND. THANK YOU SOUTH BRONX FOR ALL YOUR HELP !!!
OK listen, up.
No more stuff about Rogers' family, except her mother. No more about her husband. Her husband's hometown. Wedding registry, children, born or unborn.
Roger's mother is/was public figure and trolled here.
No more stuff about shagging, m'kay?
Are you happy Peter Zucker? This is not a healthy debate, it's a personal attack. There is no dialogue going on here, it's plain smut and you are the responsible party for providing the avenue for all of these cowards to attack my wife and my family. Yes, this is her husband. I won't hide behind the anonymity of the internet. Is your son proud of you for this? How about your wife? As one man to another, I'm asking you to take this entire blog down. It's not serving any purpose other than to hurt my family. Have you no decency, have you no conscience? If you would like to debate the lack of merits for this blog, I am happy to meet you at your house on Lakeview in West Harrison or anywhere else. Take this blog down.
Your wife never gave those children a second thought when she hurt them. This blog needs to stay up so whenever someone searches her name this appears and they can be warned about what type of persons Mrs. Rogers is.
How dare you threaten him! You are exactly like your wife, intimidating and threatening people. You deserve each other.
Mr. Rogers isn't there a blog about you and how you behaved at your job? Those comments sound just like the comments here. I wonder if you gave her advice how to treat employees badly.
Karma is not punishment or retribution but simply an extended expression or consequence of natural acts."God does not make one suffer for no reason nor does He make one happy for no reason. God is very fair and gives you exactly what you deserve."
WELL SAID AND WELL WRITTEN .
Bullying is the use of force or coercion to abuse or intimidate others. The behavior can be habitual and involve an imbalance of social or physical power. It can include verbal harassment or threat, physical assault or coercion and may be directed repeatedly towards particular victims, perhaps on grounds of class, race, religion, gender, sexuality, appearance, behavior, or ability.[2][3] If bullying is done by a group, it is called mobbing.[4] The victim of bullying is sometimes referred to as a "target".
As teachers we wouldn't allow children to bully one another, so why as adults are we bullying each other? This blog is out of control and a petition should be signed
To remove it
The majority of the comments are facts. Deal with it!
the teachers are bullied and verbally abused on a daily basis
Mrs. Rogers has bullied children, teachers and parents. Nobody is bullying Mrs. Rogers. People are telling their experiences with her. Do NOT remove this site.
They are not just "telling their experiences" with her come on. If they say she bullied people, then you are stooping to her level now and doing the same thing. Enough is enough
I can not believe that I work in a place with such hateful, mean and miserable people.
I assume the threat by husband Kent Roger is an open threat against Peter. I would call the department of investigation on him. But if he wants to meet and talk about how his wife has abused teachers, parents and children get it on.
Hateful and miserable people....
did you unjustly get fired....did you have to leave the building quietly and go find another job when you and the parents liked the job you were doing....do you get bounced around each year into new grades and new classrooms like you work for a moving company....Do not fear..this weeks survey WILL SAY IT ALL!!!!!!! Unless it has been tampered with
The truth will come out about the teacher who was "unjustly fired" or who was "asked to leave quietly". Nothing stay quiet for long, you all should know that
Allow me to clear my throat......

This is a much bigger issue than just Mrs. Jones-Rogers and PS 29. I can feel the pain of her staff, students and parents. However, this story of principals who bully staff, students and parents has gone in way too many schools under the Bloomberg administration. If more people from schools stood up spoke out maybe such harsh words would not have to be put down on a blog such as this one. However, I am glad this one shines brightly. Sadly PS 29 and Mrs. Rogers 5 minutes of fame will disappear maybe in a week or so for another bully principal to appear in the local newspapers. It is up to us New Yorkers who have endure the Leadership Academy Principals to get the word out as to what is happening to our children and staff. So many good, excellent, kind and caring teachers have been forced to leave to school system they love because of what Bloomberg/Walcott/Klein have brought in. I can't even begin to imagine the pain and suffering the children have suffered. Really this is not all Mrs. Jones-Rogers fault as much as it seems like it on this page. She is just one of the many that sprang from the above mentioned. Her fame is fleeting. So get over it Mrs. Rogers...it is not such a great day in the neighborhood now.

I am a teacher who has just left PS29 and I just want to make it clear I did NOT leave because of Jennifer Jones-Rogers. I left because of the sick few that were poisoning our great staff. As you can see how evil and ruthless they really are through this blog !
If this is a person who left 29 why didn't you sign your name so we can all know who you are.
No one should have to sign their name. Everyone else on this website is hiding behind the shade of anonymous
Whether this continues or not, I hope that the New York City Office of Investigations is reading. A venerable institution like Teacher's College is getting money from public schools through the influence of Principals that they employ. That would be their biggest scandal ever, and even big for the DOE on the Bloomberg scale. What an incredible conflict of interest. Don't take down the blog. It suggests one huge scandal that should be investigated.
The best that we could hope for is that the current & incoming administration hand picked by Jones and her clones on the Special Ed. team are removed before the children return to PS 29. The things that they have done are beyond forgiveness by this community. The illegal acts, the intimidation, the ruthless behavior, and overall insane atmosphere that is and has become the norm for our school must end!
This goes all the way up to the higher ups at the district as well.
Jones & her crew have finally been exposed!! You all can run, but you can't hide from the truth. Shame on you all!! You took advantage of the parents and stole their biggest trust they could put into anyone-the trust to care for their CHILDREN.
Interesting how those few who have made an attempt to defend this situation and call these accusations false have not been brave enough to post their names. If they were so convinced about her innocence, then why do they hide. Feeling guilty now for taking part???? Or for getting caught??
You had a choice, and you went right along with the evil.
The REAL exposure hasn't happened yet. These
People posting that they have exposed lies, wait until you are exposed... Karma
Mr Roger i have ALWAYS supported new ideas and had the moral standing to meet with Your wife. I gave her well wishes on her upcoming birth of her frist child. i also told her my concerns of all the things that was being said and said to her " if your are proud of what and how you are doing then then stand up and show that you are right.. that was three months ago. Why with all that is said she does not speak This blog the newspaper the comments from all .... can not change the fact that as a parent i have wonder who will teach my fourth grader are they teacher that know what they must teach or is it indicated a payback favor ----who will be hired for the fifth grade there is no one they all quit WHY must i have to wonder if i take my son out of school that all his friend love him it is easy to take him out of the school but what about his emotional connect. before school ended he was devestated that once again he will lose touch the one person that got him out of his shell
When is her press conference to clear or to admit mistake a true leader takes a stand and for the sake of the kids STEP UP
concerning giving my name Speak to your wife she know who I am how to get a hold of me and more important she knows that i am fearless and will protect the best interest of my son and any child that needs it
She should have been reported to OSI or SCI regarding her stealing work time!
Another rally has to be set up. I had no knowledge of the first one and I am sure there are plenty of other parents that would participate. I am having anxiety at the thought of sending my child there. I have no other local choice unfortunately and am planning on moving because of how much I dislike how that school is run. I had one child that had issues with Ms. Jones and her staff. Not looking forward to Sept. Hoping something is done prior to the start of school at PS29.
By the way Mr. Rogers, we aren't cowards. Your wife hasn't stepped up at all to defend herself. Most likely because she can't. She definitely doesn't have the communities or our children's interest at heart. Our neighborhood is small and we all know each other. This isn't a witch hunt. We are just looking for some peace of mind. We have enough to worry about with our children. Someday you will know how that feels. You would do the same for your kids if you felt they weren't being educated properly. As a parent you would be doing exactly what we are. Trying to get some justice.
Amen
SECOND RALLY!!!!
AMEN...Teachers need to come out of hiding and you know who you are
AMEN!
To all teachers of this once wonderful school the rabbit is out of the bag what can she do now that everyone will be monitoring the school. they will monitor to TRY to stop the onset of lawsuits , dont be afraid of her things of what you will say to the parents that see that you let your fear stop you from defending what is right
boe will give us lip service but all that we will accept is either an acceptance of mistake or her leaving
see you at the next rally
I am the father of a former student of ps 29. Ms. Jones was argumentative disrespectful, and rude to every parent that I have ever spoken with. The teachers hated her not only because she is unqualified as a principal and leader but because she came with a smile on her face and poison in her veins.Any child that was marginal was deemed special needs by a principal who is more special needs than any child. PS 29 lost so many respectful qualified educators due to the shrew Ms Jones. Principal jones needs to be removed so that our children can get the education they deserve in a proper environment. Let the teachers who have worked in her schools speak.What a shame that we have lost so many quality teachers. How is it possible that so many teachers are wrong and that this one principal is right. Get her out and give the children the opportunity to learn from time tested qualified teachers. In jennifers defense she is not the only problem the whole dept of ed is a disaster. She is just one of the tentacles.My daughter has since been removed and sent to be educated in a catholic school. Good Bye PS 29............
Dennis
3 disgruntled teachers? Did anyone see LAST years school survey results?. Go to DOE site to see how many teachers were not satisfied with the principal
It was posted above more than half the staff was not happy with the conditions at 29. Can't wait to see the results of this year in the upcoming week. It will surely be mind blowing....
I completely agree with u! It's disgrace wasting our children's time! Try to treat others the way you want to be treated!
Good question!!
W"hat comes around goes around" great say!
I think if that's Mrs.Rogers, that's the least she can do, she has every right to sew those people
How about the rest of the parents?
Lol! You are like "I'm free would you entertain me for a while! Go do something better :-X
If what you are saying is right, PROVE IT
She mad her selfself very vulnerable when she trust U
Never had these issues while Ms. Adams was our principal. Every one got along so well and the parents were happy.Mrs Jones or Mrs Rogers what ever sur name you now use, go back to the bronx where every one just loved you. Oh sorry I forgot. You cant.
Betsy. Thank you so much for all you have tried to do for our children. Is there is any way through this blog we can get more parents together at the school to voice our disapproval
Who ever it was who called the principal a tentacle is a little off.
perhaps a testicle would have been more accurate. Like the ones she tore off of Lamotta
On Aug. 4th around 6:00 AM someone claiming to be the husband valiantly tried to stand up on his wifes behalf and made a threat. If your wife would stop bullying and threatening this blog wouldn't be posted. She deserves a taste of her own medicine.If you would care to respond I will give you my address and invite you to my home and we could discuss any thing you would like. Don't you dare make threats online against some one who is simply giving teachers and parents a venue to protect our children. She is your problem now, you deal with it so we don't have to
Not nice
I'm a parent and I feel completely aweful and miserable much more than you, I don't want Sep to come!
Nasty!!!!!
Unfortunately, like most of the other rumors on this website, ms Stummer is not there AP and therefore is a UFT member and should not be named on this blog. Remove her name
I thought UFT members cannot be posted on here?
And how are the observation reports that Mrs. Rogers issues to teachers or receives from the Superintendent?
Are there "letter in the file" issues at PS 29 Q?
Is PS 29 Q a relatively grievance-free school?
Have people been phoning in complaints to 311?
These and other questions need to be answered.
NO NAMES!!!!!
2013 SURVEY + TRANSPARENCY = REMOVALS
You are all living a dream! Jennifer Jones- Rogers is not going anywhere!
We are not living a dream we are living a nightmare and Jenny Jones is the cause. So we all need to awaken and end it once and for all.
Hey Jen. I assume that you will really be a malicious witch once September comes around. You will be able to get back at everyone that is left at 29. You are the worst. Go away we don't want you in College Point. You steal from our children you are pathetic.
When will this end? If you aren't happy at 29 go on open market
I agree that Jones is not going anywhere. The DOE will back any principal even if a serial killer. But will this end? Jones will continue her reign of error and her reputation will continue to pay the consequences. She may not lose her job but one object here is to see her ambition to rise dashed as a warning to other abusive principals. So I know the PS 29 community has hopes but knowing the political landscape the DOE will bury the story. The only thing people have to hang on to is a continuous drumbeat of criticism so that when a prospective employer googles her this is what they will find. Let other abusive principals beware.
MY DAUGHTER WAS IN SPECIAL ED - SIGNED FORMS AND NEVER GOT THE SERVICES SHE NEEDED. I CALLED AND JENNIFER JONES TOLD ME THEY WERE SHORT TEACHERS. LOL WONDER WHY. ONLY WHEN I CALLED WAS SHE PULLED OUT OF HER CLASS. CALLED HER AND SHE ALWAYS HAD SCOTT AP CALL ME BACK - KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG. I HEARD ALL THE TEACHERS COMPAINING FOR YEARS. THINK IT IS TIME FOR HER TO GO.............
You know reading this is so distributing, it just goes to show how ruthless and disgusting human beings can be...If you have personal issues with Jennifer then that is you problem, there is no need to bash her and throw "shit" all over her and her family, they did nothing wrong to you !!! For gods sake the woman is having a child any day, what if something happened to the health of her child due to his scrutiny? how would you all live with yourselves??? what you need to realize is that Jennifer has also been there for many teachers as well !!! she has given many teacher opportunities to better themselves, supported leadership, and revamped the entire school into excellence. Just because you might not get along with her, go find another school, no need to say such nasty things, you should all be ashamed of yourselves !!!!
I want you to know that I don't think JR is tenured ANSWERING YOUR QUESTION SO EVERYONE CAN VOICE YOUR OPNION IN TRYING TO GET HER OUT.
This all happened because of how things were running in the school. No other administration has EVER divided PS 29 into clicks or so called groups AS I HAVE HEARD FROM MANY.
THE PEOPLE SHE "VALUED" MORE SHOULD BE ASHAMED AND EMBARRASSED OF THEMSELVES INSTEAD OF HELPING HER AND TELLING HER WHAT THE SCHOOL NEEDS THEY JUST WENT ALONG WITH HER SICKNESS. JR, YOU HAVE A LOT OF LEARNING TO DO NOT ONLY AS A FUTURE MOM BUT AS A HUMAN BEING . I DON'T BLAME THE ACADEMY I BLAME YOU AND YOUR MOM.
IF EVERYONE STUCK TOGETHER THIS WOULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED. IT IS EMBRRASSED TO KNOW THAT EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT THIS SCHOOL AND THE 4 VALUED SO CALLED UFT MEMBERS. HOW ARE YOU GIRLS GOING TO WALK INTO THE BUILDING . OPEN MARKET CLOSES TOMORROW.
THIS IS SO SAD IT HURTS.... I WONDER WHAT THE OLDER PRINCIPALS ARE SAYING AND THE OLDER SUPERINTENDENTS ARE THINKING. I JUST HOPE THIS ALL COMES TO AN END SOON. WE ARE DEALING WITH CHILDREN AND TEACHERS WHO JUST WANT TO TEACH AND WALK INTO A BUILDING AND ENJOY DOING WHAT THEY ARE SUPPOSE TO BE DOING. THE "VALUED" TEACHER GO INTO A CLASSROOM FOR ONE YEAR AND TEACH AND TELL ME WHAT YOUR FEELING NEXT JUNE. I can't believe I am coming back to this MESS !
TO THE REST OF THE COMMUNITY OF 29 I AM SO SORRY THIS ALL HAPPENED IT MAKES ME SICK. I JUST READ ABOUT THIS AS I JUST GOT BACK FROM MY VACATION YESTERDAY.
C. P.
I think the worse things Mrs. Rogers has done to herself is align herself with people who had an agenda and have blindly manipulated her and have used her for their personal gain. The staff sees this and knows it little does she know that they at times they do not speak kindly of her also. These people don't have her back but Mrs. Rogers blindly is devoted. People who say you are their friend don t give you bad advice you and let you implode.
This is directed to the anonymous posting at 205 PM. Jennifer started this fight. She came into PS 29 which has a rich history of good academics and harmony. She entered the school as a bull enters a china shop thus alienating teachers and parents just to show who the boss is. You say that we should not drag her family into this and then you go and mention her having a baby. As far as if something happened to the baby how would we live with ourselves. Did principal Jones ever stop and think of the mental scars and anguish that she caused so many innocent kids of which she is supposed to protect. I wonder how she lives with herself, she cares about no one but herself. She has given opportunities to the teachers who she knew she could bully and who would kiss her ass. Revamped the school entire school into excellence? Are you kidding me? She has taken a terrific school and has turned it into a snake pit, and PS 29 has lost so many much loved and respected teachers who really did care about our children and forced them out. The double parking alone is a safety hazzard to the children. So our children are not safe inside or out of the school. The parents of the children who attend PS 20 simply do not want Jennifer Jones as principal. We want a principal that will work with the teachers, students and parents as Ms. Adams did not against them. Perhaps she needs to find another school. I would never consider staying if I were not wanted, I wonder why she does? It will take years and years and years to repair the damage she has done. Some students will never get over it.If Ms. Jones really wanted what is best for PS 29 she would put her ego aside and give the parents of the students what they want and need. A compassionate reasonable knowledgeable principal, who respects her staff and the children.
Great Job Dennis
Please feel free to contact our district 11 representative Tony Avella At Avella@nysenate.gov. He would love to know how you feel about this situation.
I bet you don't have a man until now,whoever wrote those posts! Are you a teacher by any chance? If you do, I feel so so so bad for our children!
What is your problem there? She had a relationship then broke up,then he asked her to transfer! If he does, he deserve what he got!
Come on she can't control the double parking! The people double parking are the same ones that claim they want the children safe. If you want them to be safe then get up alittle earlier and find a spot where you can safely walk them to school without putting other children in jeopardy because they had to double park.
Innocent, lol
In response to 12:02 PM. Go on the open market if you're not happy at PS 29? How can my child go on the open market? You're making the mistake of blaming the teachers for this. This effort was put forth by us, the College Point Community. We reached out to the teachers As a community, we're not happy, we're in this for the long haul and that means Jennifer Jones is the one who MUST GO
HAVE ANYONE TRIED to get ready for the return of our CHILDREN?
GET IT DONE WITH!
Jennifer Rogers! Stay calm. Wish you and your baby the best!
Stay STRONG! !!
Last time I heard being pregnant is not a disability. Jones was equally mean before her pregnancy as during. She has had little repect with our young children why should we respect her. What she needs to do is undergoe a psychological evaluation for her bipolarness. Regarding the double parking she should use her BR Team instead of sitting in her office discussong personal stuff.
I guess until she doesn't physically beat a child she won't be taken out. Parents who have had to have their children removed from 29 because of this witch let's get together and have a class action suit against her.
Parents it is your right to advocate for your children. Call her and report her to OSI for any wrongdoing. Don't be afraid. If you don't speak English its ok they have people who do. Don't let her get away with violating chancellors regulations. Although the chancellor does lil about this remember mass is all that matter. Stand up for your kids! Let's join forces and let her know this is not ok. Remember her child will never step foot in a public school so she will never have this happen to her... why should our kids be abused? Because its free public education?????
I agree with the above post. I understand that PS 29 is a public school. Although my taxes, along with our entire community help pay to allow the school to be a "free" public school. We should have the right to continue this fight. The bad definitely overrides the good in that school. Never used to be like that. My son did great until Ms. Jones came in. She speaks down to the parents and doesn't care for my child's best interest. I don't care for "my" tax dollars to be paying the salary of someone who is so detrimental to our children. Just do us a favor and get transferred or become a stay at home mom. Reflect and I am sure you would NEVER want anyone to treat your child or you the way you have treated plenty of us.
From my experience Ms.Rogers is a excellent Principal, I maybe only a parent from P.S.29. I also understand that many of you don't think the same way, But she is getting my support 100%. I have a child in special education. I have all the information and services that my child needs
We all know that the only parents behind her are the PTA ass kissers and the poor parents who are not involved in the school and have had little to no dealing with her. If all we needed in this world was a smile then she would be perfect.
PTA must remember that you are here to support us PARENTS not the school principal. But since we know that Jones did everything to pass the PTAs presidents son regardless of his absenteeism. She will for sure get her lambs to follow.
However nor the PTA,CSA,Network, or UFT can erase the wrong doing or the facts.
Everything that goes up must come down. I hope you experience the hurt you've inflicted on us. A mother should never have her child berated, abused, or made feel like garbage. How evil must you be if this is what causes you joy. You belong in a mental institution not in a school building. And all those people protecting you now better show there faces when you finally show your true colors. Its easy to be a brown noser much harder to be brave!
You are a despicable human. You accomplished your dream to marry a man with money..that's all you use to talk about. Be happy become a house wife and let us have a true leader, a person who cares about our children and education and community.
Only about one third of children grades 3 through 8 have passed the new standardized math and reading tests, down from nearly two thirds from last year. Only 29 percent of the children tested passed in math.Bloomberg and Walcott stopped short of blaming the teachers. The same teachers that have been educating our children for many many years successfully. Our teachers are some of the finest in the country. All parents ever hear is that teachers need to be let go when children fail, and how teachers aren't doing their jobs. Why not just let the teachers teach and get rid of the politicians and principals who interfere. Such a shame, once again our children lose.Mrs Jones please understand that we may are mad at the system that you defend and represent not you.If you had backed your teachers instead of berating and threatening them we would have backed you. Now you are on your own and getting what you deserve. Have a nice day
does any one out here know how i seehow the over passing score was for this school for the 3rd graders and as an individual student
