Twins are about 16. But he and his ex-wife had a daughter who is about 9.

So Fenty have more young kids? I would have thought his twins are in middle or high school by now.

Mann for Fenty and the Obama WH official. Murch for City Administrator Rashad Young. Capitol Hill Montessori for Deputy Mayor Snowden.

Mann, Murch, CHML are mentioned.

Which schools did the kids get put into?

This report only looked at 2015.

Kaya was there from 2010, including when Vince Grey was mayor.

Wonder how many discretionary placements happened then?

Whoever runs against Bowser now has an easier road. She has just lost the vote of any parent who has come up short in the lottery, and and the vote of any district resident with half a brain.

I know it was petty, but that was why I voted for Grey over Fenty

I wonder how families as Murch, Mann and Logan are feeling about those special treatment folks. Cold shoulder time, I'm guessing.

"Inspector General Daniel W. Lucas found Henderson had misused her authority by giving preferential treatment to seven of 10 people who requested special school placements for their children during the 2015 lottery season.

As chancellor, Henderson was empowered to grant a “discretionary transfer,” in cases when the placement is in the best interest of the students or the school system. But the inspector general identified seven cases where those standards were not met."

Henderson should never be allowed to work in public service again.

Hah! It sounds about $250,000 more than she deserves. Underpaid indeed.

"[Kaya] Henderson openly acknowledged in interviews with investigators that she gave special treatment to the children of government officials. Asked about the help she gave City Administrator Rashad M. Young, a top Bowser cabinet official who earns a $295,000 salary, Henderson said D.C. officials 'do not necessarily get paid as much as we should.'"

Shocking
