[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If Nardos King’s salary bothers you remember than FCPS was willing to pay Ibram Kendi more for an hour-long canned speech of “anti-racist” babble than they’ll pay her in a month. So little stewardship of taxpayer money, in a system with declining academics and overcrowded buildings. The grift is real. [/quote] You make a good point. And provide a good argument that rather than hiring. first speakers is at most a fancy bandaid Or perhaps it was to orient people to the need for policy and practice change. None the less guest speakers are expensive. All guest speakers of renown are expensive. But hiring King represents a real commitment and definitive step in the right direction. She is also a bargain in as you have to expressed. Thanks for your perspective and you are are correct hiring someone to do the really important job of focusing on real change is in balance a positive and is most certainly a step in the right direction and hiring a person to this full time position, rather than the occasional guest speaker, is a sound fiscal move. Thanks for the corollary. [/quote] Sounds like Nardos King's response. :D [/quote] Focus on academics and they won’t have to pay grifters to paper over poor performance.[/quote] Tell it to the Chief Academic Officer, his name is Sloan Presidio, send him an email to express your frustration with how the school isn't meeting your expectations for your child academically, that's his area of concern. If he is not doing a good job, then let him know. He needs to and wants to hear from you. Stay focused and repeat after me. The Chief Academic Officer is named Sloan Presidio, "He oversees the following departments: Instructional Services, Special Services, and School Improvement and Supports." That is pulled straight from FCPS' website. If your focus is academics, he is your guy. Further, "As the chief academic officer, Presidio focuses on increasing student academic achievement while continuing to expand equity in education, which means having systems in place to ensure that every student has the opportunity to realize their full potential. " If your little one isn't achieving because they've been cudgeled in the head by equity initiatives, then he wants to hear about it since, prior to Ms. King's hiring, he was in charge, he is still in charge of equity and academics. Or send Ms. King a letter or email and let her know how her predecessor failed miserably, and you want to make sure she does a better job. Tell how what you think she needs to know to do her job. I'm sure she welcomes your feedback. You have an official person to complain to now. So have at it But don't be so hard on Mr. Presidio I am sure he tried his best, he was no doubt stretched-thin, Chief Academic Officer is a squishy big title, and no doubt he's made mistakes, did you know he was instrumental in developing the Covid Distance Learning Program, and we all know to hear you tell it, how well that went. It's no wonder that he practically brought down the entire system with his equity works. Well, don't worry. FCPS is finally committed to doing it right. Ms. King has a heavy lift, but I've no doubt she is up to the task. Be thankful that FCPS is finally giving the equity mission the attention and expertise it deserves. But I repeat, if your issue is academics contact Mr. Presidio he's your man ask him about his plan! Here is his phone number 571-423-4010. Give him a call. I'm sure he wants to hear from you.[/quote]
