And there are STILL Board members who support this clown. The Board and Horton took a great district and gutted it. I would love to see the turnover rate in teachers and principals over the last few years - a rate that I predict will only continue to climb.

There are other journalists doing some good work on this front, stay tuned. The turnover is not good. Last summer alone we had job recs out there for 70 teachers, which is almost 10% of the total number of teachers in the District. So the turnover there has been bad. The turnover on the admin side, I'm told, is even worse and we've hit a point where there's starting to be issues with things like payroll systems, etc because we're losing competent people that can run operations.
Good - glad people are looking at this. Payroll has been an issue for awhile. Over 2 years ago, taxes were not properly taken out for many of the new hires, stipends were not paid on time, custodial pay was disrupted ... I could go on.
Probably all of them. The only one who joined the board post-Horton is Omar Salem and he has done little to distinguish himself from the old guard who sat around while people like Tom and the Roundtable were pointing out issues with the district's finances, crazy claims about the cost of the school, and poor educational outcomes, the board sat around and let things go without any actual oversight.

Actually the turnover rate affects ALL staff. It appears no one wants to work at D65.
That's what happens when staff are heavily micromanaged, overworked and bullied!
Which board members still support him? ThatтАЩs just unconscionable.

I think Omar has been OK, he's got some catching up to do on the mess, though.
