[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why did DCPS not select Meliotis as the permanent principal at Oyster-Adams? I’m beginning to believe that DCPS is bonkers and insane in the membrane.[/quote]

There was a really strong candidate named Kathleen Hauser-Rosthschild who applied but never received a request for an interview. DCPS missed a golden opportunity.[/quote]

I strongly believe that DCPS only cares about equity instead of hiring the best talent for this role. DCPS has tons of unqualified black principals whom are quite lousy. As quiet as it’s kept, they were only hired due to DCPS needing to hire a certain number of black principals. BTW, I’m a white woman in upper NW who applied for the principal role. I wasn’t even considered even though I’m highly qualified.[/quote]

Correct.[/quote]

Yes. They are right that it's good to have diverse role models. But they go too far, forgetting that a person who fits the desired profile but who does a bad job is *negative* for promoting equity. [/quote]
