We must support Superintendent Franklin Walker
Dear Editors:
As a proud product of the Jersey City Public Schools and a lifelong resident of seventy three plus years in our City of Jersey City I have been carefully following the matters at the Board meetings and the attempts to mince weaken the authority of the school board. I will place forth from my recollection a series of events in regards to the relationships between the school board and other entities. I further want to again express my support and the support of the community for our esteemed Superintendent Franklin Walker.
Jersey City ed board puts off vote on proposed $38K in raises for district administrators
Updated Dec 18, 2020;
A dozen Jersey City school district employees won’t be getting the present they had hoped for under the tree a pay raise.
A vote on the pay raises, which totaled roughly $38,000, was on the city Board of Education agenda Thursday night, but it was tabled, much to the chagrin of schools Superintendent Franklin Walker.
“I am disappointed in ,” Walker told Board of Education President Lorenzo Richardson during the virtual meeting before the superintendent was cut off.
Walker said the failure to approve 2%-5% pay increases to the 12 non-union employees who include Deputy Superintendent Norma Fernandez, Assistant Superintendent Ellen Ruane and Business Administrator Regina Robinson “has a direct effect on the morale” of the employees who work under him.
