chad shapiro, philip freneau -- ferigno, leanne walker, dennis kelly, jerry aratore. sofia corbett, kevin -- i've already called his name. diane delfino, and marylyn l eylaw. >> my name is chad shapiro. i had the opportunity this year to teach one of the wonderful independent study classes. i agree with the statement earlier that we have the greatest jobs in the world, of course. unfortunately, my job was probably taken by a non credentialed teacher, so it is hard for me to look at that, as far as i put in my time, i put in my work, i received all the credentials i needed, and my job is pretty much being taken by somebody who does not even have a pe credential. it is hard for me to accept that, i think. i know you guys will not be giving me a mathematics teaching job this year, so it is hard for me to look at that. one other thing is now that i am looking for more work, one thing i consistently here is how we need to align our curriculum to the standards. after teaching an independent study p e class, that will never happen. these kids will never reach the standards w
