[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most ISSs are useless positions.  They don’t do anything that positively impacts schools.  At best they are neutral, at worst they hinder learning through mandates that are a waste of time.  Literally wasting your children’s instructional time so thry can look like their job it’s important.  [/quote]

Without Instructional Supts, you'd be at the mercy of the principal, as they would not be managed. Be careful what you ask for.[/quote]

Yes. We would be without a mid-level manager position.   Given DC’s budget issues that seems like a good layer to go[/quote]

Including the Instrutional Superintendents, there are 3 layers *between* the principals and the Chancellor:  ISs, Chief of Schools, Deputy Chancellor.  And those layers have lots of other people.  Seems likes some streamlining would leave plenty of staff.[/quote]

There is one Chief of Schools for the entire district, and two Deputy Chancellors. They are incredibly different jobs with huge responsibilities, very different from those of an IS. It would be in no one's best interest, esp. parents, teachers, or students, to have those three people also handling the work of principal support and supervision than IS's do. [/quote]
