[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Central office was a disaster and that's where Rhee had focused a lot of her initial work, for example the Central Office folks who were sitting on thousands of textbooks, not distributing them when teachers desperately needed them in the classroom. And though IMPACT was far from perfect and may have wrongly hurt a few good people, it did get rid of a whole bunch of dead weight teachers that needed to be gotten rid of.[/quote] IMPACT is a disaster --- cost a fortune on an ongoing basis and has done NOTHING to improve student performance. So what''s to say that "dead weight" teachers were any different than those hired in their place? The books story is the only good one told about Rhee - and sorry - any non-educator administrator could have fixed that -- plus don't kid yourself -- it has continued -- maybe not as bad as before (I don't know) but it's not publicized, now that it's supposedly been solved.[/quote]
