Again: the system was run by progressives.

Do you know how to help underachievers? Answer: good, direct instruction.

Reid did not hire Tiffany Narcisse, the principal at Justice. That happened in 2021 before she arrived.

Who did she hire from Houston? Geovanny Ponce as Chief of Schools. How he got hired and managed to last this long is something that the NASA scientists need to study. It defies all logic. He is useless. Word is that principals are counting the days until he moves on to his new job out in the Midwest this summer.

Houston Independent School District was extremely "progressive" and run by very liberal Democrats. Just like FCPS.

Maybe, because it is an extremely large school district?

Odd choice, though.


If they want to be principals, prove themselves and then be given the cushion job of central office I am okay. But to promote them to be advisors of our school/principals is major issue when they don’t even have a previous job in that role.

Reid has hired way too many poor education outside of FCPS in critical roles and it’s costing us.



Yep this is my issue, hiring people that have no idea of the FCPS way into bigger manager roles than they previously served is a disaster in the making.

She will only hire those less competent than her. That is a tough thing to find so has to focus on other failed school systems.
