[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gotta say, I agree with Mathews on this.  DCPS is too much a political minefield to bring in someone new.  Hire from within is best.

Why would anyone listen to anything Mathews says? He has been wrong so many times in the past. In this case, he compares DC to other urban districts without controlling for variables, such as the recent infusion of high SES families into the District schools. Is this the case with the other districts? Because DC is a political minefield, why would anyone want to continue this culture by hiring an insider Superintendent/Chancellor who might have planted some of those mines?[/quote]

So he can keep his job, wasn't he on Rhee's payroll at one point now he only posts about once a year. He's a sorry sock of a reporter. Major newspaper and no journalist appointed to report on education, what a joke. [/quote]
