[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think MCCPTA’s stance is understandable. The board, thus far, has done nothing but praise and stand by McKnight. So if she’s enough of a problem to be asked to resign, the board should have engaged with its constituent organizations, which would be the MCEA, MCCPTA, MCAAP, etc.

It also is fair to be concerned that this power struggle between McKnight and the BOE will take attention and resources away from kids, which it absolutelyy will.[/quote]

Uh, no. In your world, the BOE can never respond decisively to a fast-moving crisis of leadership because they need to engage a bunch of outside groups and because any response to remove a super in the midst of such a crisis pulls resources away from kids? Get a grip.

How many millions will the system have to shell out in legal fees because McKnight wanted to protect her friend more than she did the teachers and students who are subjected to his sexual harassment?

If McKnight didn’t lawyer up over the weekend and start this public feud with the BOE and, instead, had some grace about the situation that her lack of leadership has caused, there would be no "power struggle" right now. She would have done whats right and resigned.

Just because she hasnt had a formal performance review since news broke about her failures and her team's unethical and toxic behavior during the Biedelman promotion scam doesn't mean the BOE has no basis to remove her per her contract. [/quote]
