I think this comment is bordering on distasteful since it's implying that candidates of certain skin color are less qualified.

I don't think thats what you're trying to say but I think you're opening yourself up to misinterpretation if you aren't really precise in wording around this topic

There's too few admin, especially principal, positions to try to draw a representative sample from.

And of course don't forget that there's always going to be a skew in who applies - e.g. The majority of teachers are female because the vast majority of applicants are female

You are right - that’s NOT what I was trying to say. We need to talk about the obvious. And the obvious if that white admin/principals simply have not been hired since 2020. I truly believe in the power of DEI abut this is not normal. Shouldn’t the admin/principal be diverse enough to reflect the student body? I get the rebalancing to make up for past discriminatory practices but to literally not hire anyone who’s white because they are white in a community where students are 50% white, well why?
