Top of the morning

Post on September 2, 2010 by 2 Comments »

Jim Horn at Schools Matter is justifiably fired up about the latest move by the Gang of Five on the Wake County Board of Education to dismantle the system’s diversity policy. And he doesn’t mince any words.

Instead of following the advice of the consultant they hired to present a plan for “controlled choice,” the Tea Partiers on the panel have chosen the most divisive and unfair of the four options on the table.  Is anyone surprised?

It does make you wonder. Whatever happened to the apparent willingness to listen to Michael Alves, the creator of the Controlled Choice model?

    I think delusional is a better description than “fired up”. Rhetoric like this will not move anything forward in this community.
