Thrown Under The School Bus

One video, a couple of typically worthless board meetings and one letter from the state DOE and Cheryl Watson-Harris has been thrown under the bus, another victim of systemic incompetence and malfeasance in our largely unsupervised school system. Is this what happens when the Wakanda Salute cult loyalty falls apart? Or is this what happens when the Sovereign DeKalb County School System sees a significant portion put at serious risk. Or perhaps Watson-Harris committed the most mortal of sins against Holy Church of the Takers: she let a serious crisis go to waste. Richard Woods pointed out Federal largess had been allocated to their discretionary spending, that it could (some say should) be spent to fix these schools (including DHHS) and yet it sat unused. This was just a slap across the face, though it is quite mysterious that these takers had, well, not. He also put them on notice that the state was to withhold approval of their development, and consequently spending, plan. Now this caused an uproar and probably triggered the firing. Given this school district's track record of ensuring lucrative contracts go to friends and family (former superintendents have been indicted) you have to wonder exactly whose lifestyle was suddenly at risk. Certainly not the students suffering in facilities that would be condemned if you or I or any business owned them. And this stinks more than the sewerage bubbling up at DHHS.
