4. The people who have spent the past few days trashing teachers |
|
for all they're worth.
Why do they do it? Well, I have my own theory, but it would break the rules for me to post it.

We'll be hearing from her again, I'm sure. And I'm sure it'll be for doing something crazy again.
Right-wing crazy.
Something like as the first ever superintendent of the Tom Monaghan Charter Schools.
BTW, she reminds me of the nuns in "Blues Brothers" minus the humor.

From the very beginning this story has baffled me. I just don't get the objective or the goal behind firing the entire faculty at an underperforming school. As the WaPo article notes, there is no data to support doing such a thing. And wouldn't you just know it, the school is in a poor district, has a high turnover rate of residents/students, and has a large number of students for whom English is a second language -- you know, all ingredients for educational success.
