Not me. I was a registered democrat before moving to dc. I took one look at the clowns running this place and registered as independent. Voted for catania.

This is what you deserve. You voted for a Democrat in a machine town.

I wonder how they explain to their neighbors why they are too good gor tge neighborhood school.

They'll probably just wind up getting special treatment at a charter. It happens.

Just like the DCPS teacher got...

Does Roberto Rodriguez have one as well? We need accountability for all these officials.

Snowden should be blown up in her Facebook page.

Problem is, nobody in power much cares in this city of Dem machine politics and deep-rooted racial and social polarization. Case in point: the AG never bothered to investigate the school cheating scandal under Rhee. An epidemic of rule-breaking was shamefully swept under the rug. These days, a handful of DCPS buildings are renovated to the tune of 100 million+ while the highest performing neighborhood high school by a long shot--Wilson--makes do with one college counselor for 450 seniors. Why should we be surprised?

Special treatment and lack of accountability and transparency has become the hallmarks of DCPS, not pernicious problems the Mayor, DC City Council and courts move boldly to address.

Someone should check to see if any of these bozos contributed to Bowser's campaign around the time they received Kaya's "special treatment."

Thanks for the update. DCPS needs a control board to take over and fix it. What the heck ever happened to transparency? Who are the other goons getting VIP treatment?

You gotta hand it to Bowser and Henderson- rather than own up to any mistakes, they are doubling down and defending he preferential treatment. That takes some serious chutzpah!
