Your articles are well written and very thought provoking. So far you are dead on in everything you've written. Thank you so much! It looks to me like we are comparable to Canby. Maggie is not an administrator, she is an administrative secretary. What I do find interesting, however, is the number of certified teachers not in classrooms! It would be interesting to compare that against other school districts.

Just as I've long suspected. Thank you for this research and reporting.

There's a school psychologist in Lebanon?

Yes, you are right on! This district keeps adding more and more to the District Office staff year after year. I've wondered how can all those teachers even stay honestly busy? Maggie IS a hard working secretary, who is vital to transportation.

ertified Teachers who are not in the classroom here in Lebanon:

One of the names here is Debbie Price. I am a parent of Children who have had Debbie as a teacher in HER classroom. Last year 07/08 she wasen't assigned a specific room but was very active teaching children specific curriculum for benchmark two.

This leads me to believe that the other people on this list are activly teaching as well.

Listing this list is sensationalism and is misleading.

Kind of sad really cause I was looking for infomation to help me decide on the recall issue
