A gathering spot for warriors fighting for their special-needs children

If you're one of the many who have come to the realization that your public school system is out to get away with doing the absolute minimum for your special-needs child and is not actually interested in helping or educating your child, join the crowd. Bring some passion and some factual evidence and step into the fray.

Can you hear me now?


For those of you who thought I was a lunatic for complaining about the principal-selection process for SPARK, well, try a little bit of this (be sure to read down 'til you get to the comments about Yolonda Brown) and then wash it down with some of this.

We could have had a national search and a highly accomplished Ph.D. running our beautiful new school, but instead we got a principal who won the Governor's Platinum award for CRCT scores that (in some cases, at least) only a delusional person could believe were legit, and whose boss and patron (SRT3 executive director Robin Hall) was promoted out of Beecher Hills Elementary, a school that just had 23 of its 54 classes flagged for suspicious erasures.

So maybe next time we need to help select a new principal, we can resolve to actually insist on a vote, rather than just offering our "guidance" to the omnipotent Bev Hall?

Kind of like I said here.

I welcome comments to the blog so long as they are civil in tone and stay on-topic. (You may be very critical of someone/something and still remain civil). The internet is a place where good manners seemingly go to die. That is not going to happen here.
