Quick Facts About the
|
 | The "election" you conducted regarding a change in health insurance "benefits" for the Victor Elementary Teachers Association. That was the one that NO ONE had any information on (no notice, of any kind was given prior to this surprise "vote"), and you allowed EVERYONE present at a "back to school meeting," regardless of whether they were members of the association or not, to "vote" on the matter. WHERE WAS BILL RIBBLETT? |
| Victor Elementary Teachers Association Membership Money not being deposited from CTA, Hey, only $14,000.00 was recovered from CTA (and there could have been more but CTA only researched THREE YEARS of records) Where were you when all of this was going on? WHERE WAS BILL RIBBLETT? |
| The Victor Elementary Teachers Association's Constitution and Bylaws were GROSSLY Out of Compliance with CTA Requirements (CTA Really Doesn't Care Either) - Again, WHERE WAS BILL RIBBLETT? |
| The Victor Elementary School District had a habit of "appointing" mentor teachers, (which often included first and second year teachers) without Association Consent - in direct violation to the WEAK contracts the CTA High Desert Service Center had a habit of supporting. WHERE WAS BILL RIBBLETT? |
| Election Blunders (Only 12 out of the 38 CTA Chapters "represented" by the High Desert Service Center voted! Yet again, WHERE WAS BILL RIBBLETT?), |
| Schools That Discriminate Against Children - the High Desert Service Center Received a copy of the original complaint (yes, it was hand delivered - with witnesses present - just to make sure it couldn't claim "it wasn't delivered") that was filed with the US Department of Education - and, surprise, surprise (Gomer Ribblett?), WHERE WAS BILL RIBBLETT? |
| Classrooms are RAIDED while Children are Trying to Learn - Guess what, NO HELP PROVIDED BY THE HIGH DESERT SERVICE LETTER - only one sarcastic letter sent and not even to the people who were responsible for the "commando raid!" WHERE WAS BILL RIBBLETT? |
| Teachers are Harassed - CTA? NEA? Hello? Anyone home? Yooooohoooooo?! |
| The Sale of Expensive High Desert Service Center Office Equipment to the Victor Elementary Teachers Association. This equipment then ended up in the VETA President's home instead of being used by VETA and remained there - even after this President QUIT the Association! WHERE WAS BILL RIBBLETT? |
| The Hesperia Unified Education Association went on strike and the High Desert Service Center "Representative" ( WHERE WAS BILL RIBBLETT?) didn't bother to show up, but Wayne Johnson, current President of the California Teachers Association did! (Hey, Wayne, be SURE to check out this page - it includes comments you made to me [yes, I wrote them down] about Bill Ribblett's "performance" or, shall we say, "lack of performance." It's so comforting to know that you're now President of the California Teachers Association. So, is your salary in the six figure range too - just like Bob Chase's?) |
| The High Desert Employee/Employer "Health Trust" that went "belly-up" just a few years after you started it. Remember the guy you brought in who had "the deal of the century" that later quit his insurance brokerage firm, joined another one, and then came back with "have I got a DEAL for you!" Remember that NO ONE from the Victor Elementary Teachers Association was ever elected to serve on that "trust's" board? VESD Teachers were "represented" by VESD's Assistant Superintendent of Finances! By the way, did YOU ever make any money off of that one? WHERE WAS BILL RIBBLETT? |
| Here are some other High Desert Service Center Horror Stories - Anyone want to write a book? |
Oh yes Billy-boy, hope this DOES make it on ABC's 20/20, CNN, CBS's
60 Minutes, the Wall Street Journal (that'll make Bobby Chase happy!),
etc., etc. !
