Supt Rosenstein to Seek Funds for Fifteen Class Advisors
Supt. Rosenstein said he will ask the Board of Education to provide money for fifteen class advisors across Central Harding and Bassick high schools. He noted the current contract allows only one advisor per class and pledged to fund six at Central, six at Harding, and at least three at Bassick, arguing the load is too heavy for one advisor. The move follows prior BEA grievances and recent discussions with Central’s class advisors who rejected current duties.
