Time to take off the tinfoil. Yikes. Got any facts to back up all that?
MCEA has been out to get McKnight since reopening. That's what the initial vote of no confidence was about. But reopening was too popular, so they needed to wait to pin a scandal on her to get their revenge. And NAACP saw right through it.
Really? I’m a teacher and don’t agree with any of that. Most of my colleagues felt she was up to the job. Please don’t speak for all of us.
You don't remember MCEA's vote of no confidence in January 2022?
Hmmm. But it wasn’t about reopening. Clearly, they were right and tired of being abused and not being heard. You do remember the Washington Post article in Fall of 2023, right?
It also was about her being Jack Smith's right hand. He was awful towards MCEA and refused to listen to teachers. It was partly guilt by association and teachers wanted someone from outside the cesspool Fat Jack created. Looks like MCEA was right.
And when was MCEA's vote of no confidence for Smith?
Gee, I wonder what is different about McKnight versus Smith that might cause someone to treat her differently...
McKnight was around Beidleman while he was drunk at MS principal gatherings and she created 5 new high level positions for her friends, pulling them out of their school based leadership roles.

That she hired her cronies into all the chief positions and that they as a team were terrible at running the school system during the height of covid.
She did a great job. The only people who say otherwise were the antivaxers.

I don’t remember Jack Smith creating a half dozen new leadership positions paying +$200k per year and then filling them with his toxic and incompetent buddies
I don't remember McKNight doing it either but I guess it's a nice story to justify your racism.
What a selective memory you have. McKnight wasn't getting the job done in numerous ways. You think calling other people racist changes that fact, but it does not.

Let's refresh your memory:
"In May 2021, then-acting superintendent McKnight shook up the school system’s executive leadership structure by creating five new “chief” positions above the associate superintendents. Associate Superintendent of Human Resources and Development Helen Nixon’s role was re-titled Chief of Human Resources and Development. Despite the chiefs being the highest ranked positions under the superintendent’s office, the other four jobs were posted for approximately two weeks before McKnight filled them, according to two central office officials present at the time.
The MCPS Twitter account on May 25, 2021 announced the appointments of Dana Edwards, Stephanie Sheron, Ruschelle Reuben (chief of teaching, learning and schools) and Jeanie Dawson (chief of finance and operations) to the four additional chief roles.
Three of the chiefs’ tenures as middle school principals overlapped with McKnight’s, and Sheron, who was a middle school principal from 2018-2020, was McKnight’s assistant principal at Ridgeview Middle School from 2013-2016, according to Board of Education reports.
“It did not go unnoticed that a bunch of middle school principals were suddenly promoted to very high levels at the beginning of her tenure,” said Jennifer Martin, president of the Montgomery County Education Association, the teachers union. “It did certainly raise eyebrows.”
In FY2023, employees in the chief roles were among the top 10 salary earners in MCPS, at $226,244 per year, according to data obtained by MoCo360 via a Maryland Public Information Act request. "

NP. She also was reactive. When students returned to school, no one had prepared for anything. She squandered the opportunity to use the summer to get her ducks in a row. She also failed to communicate with principals, who constantly had to reinvent the wheel at the last minute, which probably accounts at least partially for why there's been an exodus of strong administrators. She wasn't ready to lead the system.

They got new leadership. The old ones were good, the new ones are a problem.
I'm interested that Byron Johns, the NAACP MC Chapter Education Chair, has not been visible recently as the NAACP MC Chapter has protested McKnight's dismissal. Anybody know the story with that?
It looks like he moved on. It was really weird they had some random woman at the MVA BOE meeting instead of him. I wonder if he didn't agree with the direction they were taking and move on but it says here he is still involved.

Byron is still very much active with the NAACP Parents’ Council. He has not moved on.
The Black and Brown Coalition is made up of Identity Youth, which has county contracts to work in the MCPS schools, and Johns.
Then their behavior at the recent boe meeting is even more shocking.
Johns has definitely not been part of the NAACP chapter recent activities protesting MCKnight's firing as well as MCEA. He might be part of the Black and Brown Coalition, but he appears to be a party of one, and not representing the NAACP, in the coalition.
