Bye-Bye Brewer

| | Comments (0) |

If the proof is in the pudding (or in LA Unified's award-winning coffee cake), then Brewer has got to go. One reason is because the district is heavy not only with administrators but with consultants who are reeling in six figures.

Now if they did something for their six figures, then that would be one thing, but at a reported 150K a pop, they are little more than overpaid lackeys who mainly circulate around the office, drink coffee and gargle, brush and floss.

Most schools are also top heavy with administrators and quasi-administrators whose positions should be combined and probably would be except that most would return to teaching only if carried in on a stake. And let's not forget the malfunctioning payroll system that cost the district and the taxpayers 95 million dollars, or the money that was earmarked for teachers' professional development days in September and was mysteriously siphoned off to places unknown.

These things all happened all under Brewer's command. Try and get him to leave? Fine, but then we're all going to have to watch while he rides off on a golden parachute.
