[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No ramifications. It's not like that. In my opinion, the school still doesn't see what it's done that is wrong or is offending people. They are tone-deaf on this issue for some reason. As another person who testified asked me (rhetorically) after speaking, why isn't Maret trying to rehabilitate Ellington or somewhere else? It's not like there's a logistical or cost difference between shuttling kids a few blocks further. To him, Maret keeps doubling down on Jelleff because it's the cheapest, which is a sad commentary from his view. [/quote] Appreciate the candor. Has there been any discussion to be clear that this wasn't actually a 19 year deal, that the option to extend was solely at the discretion of the District? Every talking point made it sound like the option was basically Maret's to ask for, and that the District was almost obligated to grant it. I think that's a big part of the disconnect here.[/quote]
