[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does it take in DCPS to actually be fired? Not reassigned or brought back to central office and drawing a salary? [/quote] You don't understand. These issues are happening systemically. Principals are following orders FROM central office to get graduation rates up. Firing principals and/or teachers does not solve this problem. [/quote] I do understand. But sometimes you need to set an example and sometimes that example means firing or punishing the leader. In the case of Ballou, regardless if the absenteeism problem is systemic, it was the principal who announced and embraced the obnoxious, self-serving, arrogant goal that every student would apply to and be accepted into college. I'll be curious to see if any clever attorneys out there try and get a group of parents of Ballou graduates from 2017 to file a suit against the District. [/quote]
