Why? How much has DCPS improved since she got a high paying job at central office?

This right here. MK has been coasting off that "turn Deal around" thing for far too long. She stepped down in 2011 and has done nothing of merit since. The only people who rush to defend her are her cronies that she rewards with 6 figure jobs (Jordon/Jellig, etc).

That sounds like a Them problem. If they hate teachers so much, they should homeschool, but of course they won’t, because God forbid they have to pay for childcare.

I don't have a horse in this race, but this reply is laughable. The idea that a single bureaucrat in DCPS is some major loss to the entire system is on its face an insane assertion. Maybe there is something to the claims that Melissa is actually active on DCUM?

She is actually a wonderful person. She just cares more about kids than coddling entitled adults who don't want to work.
