Of course not. It's DCPS classified. They will cite "privacy and confidentiality" but the real reason is to avoid embarrassment to the DC cronies and other well-connected parents.
There are also children involved.
The IG should prove it or move on.
Interesting, because regular crime involves children all the time, and criminal law doesn't allow for an exception whenever children are involved.
Immigration law doesn't work this way either. Lots of poor children are coming home to an empty house because their parents have been deported.
I'm not saying there SHOULDN'T be considerations for kids, but in these examples it's a matter of putting kids on their appropriate school. It's more important to fight corruption.
I for one, plan on pushing my useless ward representative to make sure this does not go unpunished.
The punishment was already meted out -- Henderson has been reprimanded.
As for the families, unless they bribed her or are living outside the district, there's literally nothing to punish them for. And certainly no laws on the book to cover this scenario.
Time for everyone to move on.
"Reprimanded"?!? Give me a fucking break. She committed a crime, the families committed a crime, but we are supposed to look the other way?
Listen Kaya, aren't you busy with your modeling career? Stay off DCUM, I'm tired of reading your excuses.
No, it was not a "crime," particularly on the part of the families. Go read the DC Code; if you can find a statute that was violated please inform the rest of us.

Yes, the IG should release the full report. Let the chips fall where they may.

You know as well as I do that they were Wilson / Deal feeders. Perhaps SWW.

Follow up to say anyone in her shoes would have been foolish to not pull strings, as corrupt as that shows our system to be.

Not news worthy. A better story is Principal discretion when a family moves OOB.

Discretion is fine. The question is whether she abused her discretion. Not sure how to balance the discretion, but DCPS is not an institution that can just say trust us.

No. So far only NBC4 has it, and they got a leaked copy.
