Criminal Justice Gets A New Techer


By Kendra A

Concord Regional Technical Center, also known as CRTC, has had a lot of things happening within the past year. The state of NH went through a huge budget cut and the budget they were cutting was that of CRTC for funding for students. Last year the CRTC center told the students that the programs that were getting cut for juniors were Criminal Justice and Information Technology.


Senior students came back expecting to be in class without juniors. However this was not the case and there were juniors in class and the class make-up was different from last year. One of the teachers decided to find a different job. Mrs. Mydrek was the Criminal Justice teacher, She left and was replaced by a man by the name of Jack Ryan. Jack Ryan has had a very colorful career, He was a perfect Criminal Justice teacher. In the beginning of this year he had a cardiac arrest and was told he could not work anymore.


The criminal justice class got a man named Mr. Jim Daley, who is the court liaison of Concord High School. He has been there since the beginning of the school year. The CRTC office started looking for replacements for Jack Ryan’s job. The students volunteered on a hiring committee and got to interview all the candidates for the job. They finally decided on one of the candidates to go in front of the school board.


They hired that candidate his name is Scott Lane; he was the Chief in Pembroke. Now he wants to become a teacher for Criminal Justice to young adults learning the ways in the Criminal Justice system. Sitting down with the teacher right now Mr. Daley told this reporter “I think Scott will be a good fit for the job and give the students a good amount of experience, because he is not just focused on helping the kids that want a police officer job. He can reach out to the students that want different things.” Scott seems like a very good teacher for the job he should excel at this job.
