The mystery of Daniel Fredo Albetta has been solved.According to the DOE and New Vision for Public Schools, Albetta is the new principal at Robert F Wagner Secondary school for the Arts and Technology.On the opening day of school, Manhattan Center Principal David Jimenez told the staff that Albetta had taken a year away from Manhattan Center and would be returning next year.Now there are a few scenarios hereScenario 1: David Jimenez lied to the staff. Well this is nothing new as per my 3020a arbitrator Lisa Brogan noted that Jimenez lacked credibility.Scenario 2: Jimenez was planning on burying Albetta because the quality review noted that the score on the History and English regents exams were extremely high, but most of the teachers in those departments were rated developing. Jimenez it seems was going to lay that off on Albetta.Scenario 3 Albetta sold out Jimenez to SCI investigators and was rewarded with his own school. This may also explain why Jimenez has been invisible. Many of the staff members have commented that they have not seen Jimenez on a daily basis.Either way the staff of Robert F. Wagner should be wary of their new principal. Albetta was involved in the infamous Mike Thomas incident (www.mcsmledger.blogspot.com) Albetta’s actions in this incident are well documented and can be viewed on a video that is provided on the site.Albetta is extremely cunning when it comes to making up stories about staff members.
He is well known for the gotta observation so be prepared. Albetta is a wanna be tough guy who quickly becomes the victim when confronted. This he learned from Jimenez. Also be advised to watch the student funds.This is a prediction if Albetta make a full year at Wagner he will hire his crony Dennis Hernandez who is currently an AP at Manhattan Center.Albetta came to Manhattan Center after being busted down from an AP to a teacher by his former principal in Brooklyn. During his time at Manhattan Center as a teacher Albetta would sit in union meetings and relay information back to the principal about union business.His rise to AP was suspicious to say the least and he was a key witness in the alledged sexual harassment of Felicia Bray by David Jimenez.This blog will provide you more information about Albetta and his time at Manhattan Center.
There is a rumor going around that Manhattan Center Assistant Principal Dan “Fredo” Albetta has vanished. Staff members were treated to the news of Albetta’s disappearance in cryptic message from El Jefe.Speculations about Albetta’s disappearance are that.Jimenez did not give Albetta tenure as an AP. Albetta became AP of Security after cutting the throat of another AP who was out of the building on a day that a fire mysterious broke out in a first floor bathroom.
Albetta’s rapid rise to AP of social studies, his role in the Felicia Bray issue and his attack on Me seemed to assure his rise to power and tenure. WRONG!!!!Albetta has found the principal’s job he always wanted in Saskatchewan, CanadaSome are even speculating that Albetta joined a Buddish monastery in Tibet. In hopes of achieving higher learning and to rid himself of the scourge of Jimenez.Personally my speculation is that Jimenez took him fishing. It seems that the highly touted principal at Boys and Girls high school has taken a page from the Nixon administration. Together with his version of Ehrlichman and Haldeman they have covered up a sexual assault.I wish I could say I was surprised that administrators had cover up an assault on a young woman in a school, but I’m not.As a dean at Manhattan Center in 2007 to 2009, I had witnessed a male student physically assault his girlfriend on an almost daily basis. I personally suspended the student twice, but the principal David Jimenez refused to take further steps. Then in the spring of 2009 this male student walked into my classroom and attempted to physically remove his girlfriend from my room.
I notified school safety who removed the male student. I notified the girl’s parents who pushed the issue with the principal. The student was suspended again. Two day after the incident, the student came into the dean’s office spun make chair around and made threatening gestures toward me. I called security. When security arrived the student went on a verbal tirade that includes racial and sexually insults toward school safety. The student was removed to the guidance office.
While in the guidance office the student took a chair and broke a $6000 copy machine and told principal David Jimenez to “suck my dick.” It was at that point Jimenez requested a superintendent suspension. For nearly two years, the incidents between this male student and his girlfriend were swept under the rug.In June of 2014, A female student had to get a restraining order against a male student for stalking her.In 2008, Two female assistant principals were allegedly sexually harassed by Principal David Jimenez. Needless to say both incidents were swept under the rug.The question is how many allegations do principals swept under the rug? As a dean I was always told to kept our suspension numbers low. It seems that disciplinary issues lowers the school’s environment grade on the report card.With that being said, I wonder what is more important a grade on a piece of paper or a student that enters a school building.Posted in. Combier, I recently read your May 9th editoral in the parent advocate. The editorial entitled CYBERSTALKER FRANCESCO PORTELOS AND HIS BLAME GAME MUST BE STOPPED.
In the article you call Francesco Portelos and the Solidarity Caucus cyber-bullies.As a member of Solidarity I took this personal considering in your editorial you attached a link to the redacted copy of my 3020a charges and decision. I have two responses to this.1) If you wanted a copy of the unedited report for my 3020a all you needed to do was ask me.
I have no problem publishing it. I believe this is called transparency.2) I realize that you used the term cyber-bullies. I believe in my case this could be called libel considering I have never sent you any emails and I have not used your name until today on my blog.Hypothetically, if I was to sue you would have to prove your reason for using my name with this term. I legally could say that you we’re trying to discredited me because I am running for a position in the UFT with Solidarity Caucus.In your editorial you talk about the blame game. And below the link of my 3020a you wrote,“The point is, why would the NYC Department of Education want to hire ATRs who play this blame game?”Once again this seems like it is attached to my name to discredited me.Remember Ms.Combier there are always three sides to every story. Your side, My side and the truth.The truth in my case is that arbitrator Lisa Brogan noted in her decision that Manhattan Center Principal David Jimenez lacks credibility. Ms.Combier as a para legal or lawyer you should know that when a witnesses credibility is brought into question this establishes a reason doubt.
Lisa Brogan also noted that she had serious concerns about the leadership at Manhattan Center and that the administration at Manhattan Center took an active role in harrasing me.As for being an ATR I have been rated satisfactory for the past three years.Your editorial is your opinion. Your opinion is that I am a bully. The description of a bully is someone who picks on a smaller individual with the hopes of imposing their will on that smaller individual.Unfortunately, in this case I am the smaller individual as are members of the Solidarity Caucus. The DOE has imposed it will on us. They have outcasted the ATR.
They have demoralized them. Combier, I am not a bully.
I am just an individual who got tired of being stepped on and lied to. I am an individual who got tired of watching other teachers get bullied by principals and sit there in silence waiting for our union to help them.I ran for office because I just got tired of watching bullies beat on others.Posted in. In 1986, former professional wrestler Captain Lou Albano, Co-starred in a cheese ball comedy called Wise Guys.
Albano played a character called Frank the Fixer Acavano, a mob enforcer who’s primary job was to help his boss out of trouble by killing two lackeys who ratted out the boss. Instead the two lackeys steal Frank’s credit cards and go on a wild sending spree. Of course after each purchase the store sales person would response with “THANK YOU MR. ACAVANO.”Eventually, these two guys outsmart Albano’s character and while staging their own deaths to escape the mob boss end up killing Frank Acavano, but the boss lives.So why would I quote a cheesy 1980’s movie to discuss grade fixing.
Well, to be honest the cheese ball comedy is the New York City Department of Education.It seems that former John Dewey principal Kathleen Elvin was charged with grade fixing. The evidence of grade fixing was substantiated by a DOE probe that stated “students we’re give packets to complete, but did not receive any instruction from certified teachers as required by state law.” A pretty slam dunk case if you ask me.Instead Elvin dialed 1-800-Frank the Fixer prior to her 3020a hearing (Better known as an administrative trial.) Now remember these trials are be heard by a third party who gets paid by both the DOE and the Union. These administrative judges are the Frank the Fixers of the DOE.
These are the same hearing officers who basically shake down teachers for large amounts of cash to keep their jobs even if the evidence favors the teachers.After the charges we’re dimissed against Elvin her lawyer immediately responsed that she was a victim of CHARACTER ASSASSINATION and the case was BASED ON MISREPRESENTATION AND HALF TRUTHS AND MISINFORMATION. Really, I thought to myself looking at my 3020a hearing decision in which the Arbitrator Lisa Brogan noted that Manhattan Center Principal David Jimenez lacked credibility. I think this is the polite way of calling him a liar. Unfortunately, a DOE administrative hearing is a Kangaroo court.
I was fined $15,000 and excessed to the ATR pool. Eventhough, Jimenez’s lacked of credibility would have or should have established a reasonable doubt.Meanwhile, Kathleen Elvin was promoted and given a raise. THANK YOU MR. ACAVANO, but why was she promoted?It’s simple she was going to testify that the higher-ups in the DOE sanctioned her actions.
This is not something new. In 2009, Manhattan Center principal testifed against on District 4 superintendent Francesca Pena and Miciales Pepin, an assistant principal at both Manhattan Center and A Phillip Randolph High School over an affair. At the time Jimenez was accused of sexual harassment by two female APs.Needless to say those allegations magically disappeared after Jimenez testified. THANK YOU MR.ACAVANO.The truth is the 3020a process needs to be overhauled and many of the pervious cases need to be reviewed.Posted inPost navigation.
