"should Greg Kinnon, Kathy Kinnon, etc really have to come on here to defend themselves?"<br />Yes, if they can, they should or at least email us and set us straight. We would retract or correct any information that was not accurate. <br /><br />2."you are finding out people just aren't buyin' what you are selling any more"<br />Again, really? Have you looked at our counters? We can also see that the few negative comments towards us are usually written by the same individuals (our site gives us access to that information).<br /><br />4. "because your approach is unfair"<br />Our approach is unfair as compared to who, the Boards or Administration? At least we give individuals an opportunity to be heard. The school uses bully tactics by not allowing individuals to be heard, opinions valued, and insisting on complete control, much like a dictator. How our approach is considered unfair and one would support the approach of the board and administration is beyond comprehension.<br /><br />5. "and your information more often than not factually incorrect. <br />Again, really? Asked and answered but just to reiterate, more often than not our information IS confirmed and IS correct.<br /><br />6. "You may have started out with good intentions but then you quickly turned this into a 'bash mvrcs' site"<br />We are not looking to 'bash mvrcs' but rather we are trying to get MVRCS to follow the laws that govern them, ensure special ed students receive the education needed, treat all students and staff equally, get rid of the excessive employee baggage (all the friends, family members, and associates), and generally clean up their act. The only bashing we do are to those that are abusing their positions or relationships.UnOfficial MVRCShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292531390616359087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-709242580417745556.post-81346547417205443912010-11-13T02:15:26.441-05:002010-11-13T02:15:26.441-05:00Anonymous @ Nov 12, 3:34pm

For example, <br />1. We confirmed that Chris Finn's relatives DID leave the school and WERE re-admitted, <br />2. We do know of several parents who have told us that they had a "Konnection" to gain their child a spot, <br />3. We have provided links to DOE documents and now have an email from Jeff Wulfson proving that the DESE has been trying to get the school to set term limits and they refuse, <br />4. Neil Kinnon IS responsible for the hiring and retaining of many of his friends, family members, and associates. Examples that come to mind include Greg, Kathy, and Lee Kinnon, Marty Gately, Burt Shapiro, and Chris Finn and that is just touching the tip of the iceberg.<br />4. The school has refused to clarify their transportation issue even after numerous attempts. It is our understanding from parents that they are considering 770 Salem Street as a 'hub' which they are NOT permitted to do. We have given the school plenty of opportunity to clarify their policy which they refuse to do.<br />We could go on and on and rehash every allegation we have made but the bottom line is that the majority of what we write about has been confirmed. Further, in the few instances that we have identified mistakes on our part, we waste no time in correcting or retracting the information.UnOfficial MVRCShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292531390616359087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-709242580417745556.post-19122678623515134272010-11-12T15:34:37.609-05:002010-11-12T15:34:37.609-05:00Unofficial MVRCS....the answer to you "why, w...Unofficial MVRCS....the answer to you "why, why, why" question is simple.

No. So instead you are finding out people just aren't buyin' what you are selling any more because your approach is unfair, and your information more often than not factually incorrect.

There was no apology necessary for the meetings not being posted but the one time at City Hall. The meeting for the 18th is still not posted at the City Hall website. This has been going on for years and believe me, you are making progress. Many people who have their reasons to keep quiet are out there supporting you as I have gotten support over the years. You must know that by the counters on your page views and new visitors. Posters who are a distraction (Andy?) are refusing to look at the obvious. They must then admit maybe they would have to do something and their "friends" really aren't who they pretend to be. Or they have sold their soul to the Devil and have no choice. People do things for many reasons for survival or the easy way out. The good news is that when you shine the light on what is going on, it cannot go on forever.

What would you do? Who would you turn to? Would you not be outraged that laws were so blantently being broken? Yes, the natural answer would be to move out of Malden but what if you can't (work, finances, employment...)? Yes, private school but then again private schools don't have to provide special ed services.<br />If all the Malden politicians and people who could make a difference in Malden schools are able to get their kids into the Charter school, what incentive do they have to make the needed changes in the schools and/or for the community? When do you begin to care, when your child has unmet needs at the school?
