[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I first heard about this from the Examiner today, and the way that article spun it, Trogisch wants to hire his wife on a technicality that is meant only for emergencies and is limited to work for a maximum of 30 days. A teacher, unnamed for fear of retribution, spoke out against it, and I know for a fact that a lot of students think that it's not okay. [/quote] No, he wanted Kaya Henderson and the other higher ups to say "Forget that. We make our own rules" and hire her anyway. He/They thought they could flout the rules as they've always done in the past. However, the only stipulation that allows gov't employees to 'bend the rules' with these types of hirings is in the case of an emergency and only for 30 days.[/quote] Trogisch and DC higher ups thought the stipulation meant that the ethics policy could be overruled as long as it was sanctioned by the head of the government agency. They were too stupid or arrogant to actually [b]read[/b][i] the stipulation and understand that the stipulation comes with a stipulation that STILL makes Trogisch and DCPS look like poor decision makers. That stipulation says that the government head can only appoint a relative in an emergency situation and that family member can serve for no more than 30 days (ie: until they can find someone else). DCPS thought they had Rhee-like powers to do whatever the hell they want. Only problem is that 1) She usually did whatever the hell she wanted in the best interest of the students (as misguided as some of her ideas may have been) 2) She wasn't stupid enough to try to bring in her husband or beau to work under her. 3) Fenty's blind support of her was never in conflict with the ethics policy. Trogisch and wife thought they were going to run that FS-SWW merger in Fenty/Rhee style. That woman would've been a true TERROR to work under with her husband as her unwavering backup. Together they would've been HORRIBLE. Just look at the nerve of her asking that resumes be sent to her--a classroom teacher at another school who hadn't even applied for the job!!! They should both be dusting off their resumes this weekend and getting them ready to send out by Monday. They need to GO![/quote]
