Roger Sherman Inn' Summer Wine and Culinary Series: Rhone Valley Meets Morocco

 ,   Add to calendar
 Danbury  See map

Join us On the Porch for a summer series that celebrates the best of France's food and wine.  The Inn's own Tour de France, an original culinary event that transports you to a unique region of France world famous for its wonderful flavor. The tour begins with a paired salute to the wines of the Rhone Valley and French Moroccan cuisine, creating a wonderful combination of French and French-influenced tastes. Moroccan entertainment will enliven the evening with belly dancers and hookahs.  

As Nes Jaffre, co-owner of the Inn, explains: “With our fabulous porch and the summer season upon us, we wanted to celebrate the fantastic food and wine that the many regions of France offer with four unique events throughout the summer months.  Since I’m of Egyptian descent (of course, this is about me!!), we thought a little Moroccan fun would be a great way to launch our RS Tour de France.  And, who needs to travel this summer, when all you need to do is join our tour! We hope many will sign up for the whole series and enjoy a fantastic experience.”

g, Let's throw out some more numbers... Here is a site to look at:Read More http://www.sde.ct.gov/sde/lib/sde/PDF/dgm/report1/basiccon.pdf This is the Connecticut State Department of Education Bureau of Grants Management spreadsheet. It shows and compares what Danbury is paying per student compared to the rest of the state. Looking at the numbers, out of the 170+ districts in the state, Danbury pays the 8th LEAST amount per pupil. Out of the 10 districts in Connecticut that have over 10,000 students, Danbury ranks 2nd LOWEST in the state. This amount is about $3,000 less per pupil than the average of the state and the average of districts with 10,000+ students.

Good afternoon Jessica, Danbury plans to spend approximately $114,000,000 on teaching staff salaryRead More and benefits for the next school year per the school budget here - http://www.danbury.k12.ct.us/bbadmin/Budget/2012-2013%20budget.pdf the total budget is $121,000,000. Teachers, administrators, contracted professionals, staff enrichment programs, staff insurance, and the rest comprise about 95% of the school system budget. See staff cost summary on page 8 of the report. You'll also note our board of education plans to spend a bit more than 3 million dollars on supplies and materials plus a million on equipment. The budget represents a 5% increase from the prior year. On our district home page - http://www.danbury.k12.ct.us/ it says Danbury has 10,300 my calculator tells me that's about $12,000 per child in the district. With $12,000 per child, why are teachers paying for supplies? Hmm ... let me think ... 95% of the budget goes to staff salary and benefits for the long 185 day year .... I have a guess where the money goes. Do you?
