Ugly Betty
Bill Clark, who writes sporadically on his blog (I've tried to add an RSS feed, Bill so I'll be alerted to new postings) Greenwich Gossip took it upon himself to go down to Town Hall and demand a copy of the survey Greenwich conducted months ago on the performance of our schools. No wonder the authorities have tried to hide this thing: our Superintendent, Betty Sternberg, received dismal performance ratings from both parents and teachers alike. Sternberg's two-year contract expires this year. First Selectman Peter Tesei has suggested that we select the best principal we have in our schools and make that person the next Superintendent. That makes sense to me but regardless of who's chosen, can we really do any worse than Sternberg?

Hi, Chris,
Just want to let you know that no demanding was necessary. I had Amanda by my side, and the staff fell all over themselves to accomodate the two of us.
Look for an account of our visit to the Havemeyer Building in Amanda's next column! The most exciting moment was when Betty herself came running out of her office and tried to grab the survey back. Amanda merely pointed her pad and pen at Betty, and the woman collapsed in terror. Let's hear it for the power of the citizen journalism press!
