Topic: Classroom Teachers¡¦ (G1-6) Perspectives towards
School-Based After-School Programs
Hello, dear G1-6 teacher!
It¡¦s now the holiday week and it seems like I am not
having enough participants to do my Master¡¦s educational
research capstone course survey before the survey deadline
(12:00 PM, SAT, 26 Nov 05), that I am now requesting for
your help. Would you please take a few minutes now to
visit the following URL to help me and your district to
evaluate the school-based after-school programs?! :

Thank you very much.
Best,
Constance
(ps. Please refer to the following message for more
detailed information.)
-----------------------------------
I am a graduate student at the College of Education in the
University of Missouri ¡V St. Louis, Constance Chang. I
am now working on an educational research capstone
project. The research topic is ¡§An Internet Survey of
Classroom Teachers¡¦ (G1-6) Perspectives towards School-
Based After-School Programs in the U.S. and Taiwan.¡¨ The
purpose of this research is to make possible suggestions
to parents, students, educators, policy makers and so on
to provide pupils in both countries with further after-
school programs. To reach the goal, we planned to invite
some American and Taiwanese teachers to do an Internet
survey to evaluate school-based after-school programs in
the U.S. and Taiwan!
Since all the voluntarily participants in this survey will
remain anonymous, we are now requesting for your help. If
you are interested in this survey, please visit the
following URL:
[link removed]
(ps. If it is not linked directly from your web browser,
please ¡§Copy and Paste¡¨ the above URL into your web
browser.) If you have any concerns or comments, please do
not hesitate to let me know.
If you are now a G1-6 classroom teacher, please spare a
small amount of your time to visit the above URL to help
me to fill the questionnaire.
The online questionnaire will be available through
11/26/2005 (SAT) at 12 PM. My best estimate is that it
will take approximately 15 minutes for you to complete the
questions! A ¡§save and return¡¨ option is available so
that you can quit the survey any time but I recommend you
to complete the form in a single session!
Thank you very much for paying attention to this message
and we also appreciate you, in advance, for participating
in this survey!
Have a great vacation!
Faithfully yours,
Constance Chang

I was in the 2nd DCTF Cohort and this is my 4th year with
DCPS. If you can get the necessary certification without
the fellows program – do so. It is not worth the time
and/or effort.
This is what I can offer:
Make sure you have money. It took over 3 months to get my
1st paycheck. I had to have a Virginia congressman/aide
call the HR people on my behalf.
Never EVER call a DCPS telephone number unless you can
document the call.
Never EVER give DCPS any documents unless they sign for
them.
DCPS has some of the most inefficient, disorganized,
shuffling/jiving employees you will ever meet. They are
accountable to not a soul. And don't waste your time
complaining (even to the Sups office) as they will continue
the shuffling and jiving routine.
If you are considering DCPS -- look in the mirror RIGHT NOW
and figure out who you are, because this organization will
change you and attack any common sense/value system you
have.
In essence it is an organization modeled after the mob.
Either you are someone’s crony or enemy. This system is
NOT about children. SO YOU MUST BE!!!!! In reality the
lack of delivery services is CRIMINAL! The two schools that
I am familiar with are southeast schools. The buildings
are in horrific condition and it's like pulling teeth to
get pencils, paper. copies, textbooks, supplies and
support. But everyday you will pick up the newspaper and
read statements from a DCPS official denying the conditions
and telling blatant lies.
The leadership of many of these southeast schools can be
likened to the plantation house/field slave relationship.
Many of the principals are corrupt bigots but because they
look just like the people they serve it's ignored.
I could go on and on…. Just remember the children – cuzz
they have NO VOICE except the one you give them.

Public education in Texas is in BIG trouble! We have a
politician in Austin who is from Arlington, and is the
head of the education committee. His name is Kent
Grusendorf anf he hates teachers! He blames teachers for
his son's suicide, and has been punishing teachers since
he was elected. If he gets re-elected, we will lose our
continuing contracts. We'll also lose our 22-1 class cap
for K-3, and our 30-minute duty-free lunch (I never knew
those existed until I came to Texas!) He supports
vouchers, which as we all know takes money from public
education. There is a lady running against him this year
who has a good chance of defeating him. Her name is Diane
Patrick. Early voting for this primary election is Feb
21 - March 3, and the regular election is March 7. We
have it on good authority that he plans to initiate a
nasty smear campaign against her just prior to the
primary. Those of us who care about our children are
asking that voters who live in District 94 call, write, or
email their friends and family to ask them to vote for
Diane Patrick. We're even asking those dyed-in-the-wool,
straight-Democrat-ticket voters to, JUST THIS ONCE, to
vote in the primary, vote early, and vote for Diane
Patrick. If you have friends or family in the Arlington,
Texas, area please forward this email to them and ask them
to help us defeat Kent Grusendorf. Thanks, and have a
great rest-of-the-year!
