Thats because leadership is grounded in white patriarchy so go figure. |
In DC? At this time? If you want change, you have to accept it when it happens. |
Our AP said it’s not an assignment, it’s a mutual decision. So if the panel ranks a candidate #1 but that candidate declines, it’s just the way it is. |
Because most of the time it is racially motivated. Black folks have to work ten times as hard as other non-black folks who are mediocre. The threshold is set extremely low for non-black folks but set extremely high for black folks. |
I genuinely do not think this is true in DCPS leadership. |
+1 You have Andria Caruthers who admits to ethics violations and fraud/double dipping and she just goes “oh, oops, sorry, I didn’t know” and marches on like nothing happened. So what would it be called to ask for or expect her resignation? |
It’s a feature, not a bug. She worked for Relay. Now that she’s trained by Relay and employed by Relay, DCPS doesn’t need to pay for Relay. They get two for the price of one. |
Ummm ok Andria. There’s more to the story. Just Google. |
You don’t think DCPS keeps her because it’s financially beneficial? |
DP - No, because for that to be true, Relay would have to be beneficial. |
DCPS thinks it is to the point of saying we are a Relay district. So if you have someone who has all the knowledge, training, and institutional knowledge of a program, would you fire them and pay for the program or give them a (relatively) quiet slap on the wrist and get their knowledge for free? This is a no brainer if you are DCPS. |
So, again, this sounds like a low bar for DCPS, not a high bar? |
And this is why this corrupt behavior continues. We justify everything wrong about this system. |
Your AP is mistaken. Panels don't rank candidates. They don't vote. They don't even give a recommendation. They give feedback - positive and negative - for each panelist they see. And based on that, the Instructional Superintendent gives their rec to the Chancellor. The Chancellor makes the final decision. |
Absolutely. I never said it was a high bar. It just explains how DCPS justified keeping a terrible leader with documented ethics violations. Worth another thread if you want to start one but we should derail this thread. |
