[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are plenty of local candidates which relevant experience - way more qualified than Michelle Rhee or Kaya ever were. Jean Claude Brizard, former CEO of Chicago Public Schools, has been living in DC for 3+ years. There are lots of people with impressive resumes like him who come to work at the federal level, or at think tanks. [/quote] Jay says "Low performing districts don't make complete turnarounds in a decade. It has never happened and never will. But if you get some improvement, as DC has, you have something worth continuing, which is unlikely to happen if you hire from outside. ---Jay" Funny, when Rhee/Kaya said they could turn DC around with their new educational reforms you were all up in their asses, now it turns out that you don't think it can ever happen but we should keep promoting more of the same. Washington Post is less involved now than in the early days when Rhee had all her meetings at the Post but they have no one except this dumbo and Val with her blog posts taking ed. seriously in DC. As half of the kids are now in charters what we need is a radical shift in perspective. [/quote]
