Re: Concerns about Source4Teachers Privacy And Data Collection for Jersey City students and teachers

Source4teachers is a scam. In Woodbridge Township, the existing subs took a pay cut from $120 per day to $85 per day. The district was told they would save $250,000 in substitute costs. Did not happen. In the first year they had to transfer funds in the budget to cover the increased costs. It went from 1.2 million budgeted to 1.8 million actual. That was 4 years ago. Since then the cost of substituting has doubled and yet the subs still get the same daily rate. Source4teachers was thrown out of an Essec County district three days after a sub hit a child. Here in Woodbridge, S4T has placed subs that don't speak English. Get this. One day a sub showed up with her translator. She was told to leave. One sub was put in a special ed room. The paras found her texting continuously and she would not listen to what thedaily routine was. She was told to leave immediately. There have been at least 4 cases of students being hit and corporal punishment being used in the classrooms. This only happens with subs that were hired after S4T took over. The original 400 Woodbridge subs that moved over to S4T is now around 150. Being afraid of who could be in their classroom, teachers do not enter into the absentee management system when they will be out. They call the school secretaries who will assign the "regulars" that they know and trust. Source4Teachers is a politically connected firm. What they do is not legal. My substitute certification was issued by the Middlesex County Superintendent specifically to Woodbridge. S4T made us transfer it to Piscataway who gets $ to do the extra paperwork. Somehow S4T is allowed to allow a sub to work anywhere in their 50 or so districts in any county without having a certificate in the specific district. It is a scam. Several other districts are dumping S4T. Edison was supposed to go on with them in 2011 and has never done so after hearing the horror stories. Bottom line, do you want to know that a qualified sub is in your child's classroom or some immigrant stranger? Beware S4T.
