In Jacksonville it hasn’t been “about the children” for years

In the Times Union today, Betty Burney, school board chair, Peter Rummell mayor maker and Cleve Warren, co-chair of the Urban Education Symposium all said, it’s about the children.

Where were they when the district was gutting discipline, eroding rigor and destroying teacher morale? Where were they when the board and super were running the district into the ground? Well I know where Burney was she was on the board and giving the superintendent her approval! Sadly the needs of our children haven’t been seriously addressed in years.

Where are they now?

It should be all about the children but too often it is about adults protecting their territory and thumping on their chests.
