[quote=Anonymous]PreRhee, there were many demands placed on teachers.  It's not true that "nothing was asked".  Only a person who did not work in the schools before Rhee would not know.

While some people think of Michelle Rhee as this horrible person, I don't.  I didn't agree with the firings at all or the process used to select those teachers who would be fired.  However, I can see clear differences between Kaya Henderson and Michelle Rhee.  Rhee responded to every email message event he negative ones.  Henderson does not.  Rhee held everyone accountable including the principals she hired.  Henderson does NOT.  Henderson does not want to hear anything negative about the principals especially the friends she's hired.  Rhee seemed to make decisions that she deemed in the best interest of students.  Henderson, on the other hand, makes decisions based on how much she likes the school leader or how much parental involvement there is.  Pity those schools where parents are not organized, do not have a PTA, and have no clue how to advocate for their children because Kamras, Henderson, and anyone else at 1200 will not see you or care about how you feel or think.  Your opinion will not matter.  That's why the schools in the poorest areas of the city have some of the worst leaders.  Ditto to schools with the largest ESL populations.

The only hope I see is complete change of the top leadership in DCPS.  Mayor Bowser will learn that her praises for Henderson are not deserved.  Soon, voters will demand that she rethinks who's running our public schools.[/quote]
