What’s the deal with Caballero?
Possibly the best single source of hard news about the San Diego Unified School District is voiceofsd.com’s education reporter, Emily Alpert. This website is an excellent example of how news reporting is SUPPOSED to work. You have this site for snarky commentary.
That typed, have a quick look at this story, then hurry back- I’ll wait….
I had the chance to meet Edward Caballero and tour the new Sherman Elementary early this month. This is a great school, and clearly an excellent, dedicated principal. Clearly proud of the new site, and excited about his new position, I thought I’d witnessed a great example of the district working the way it’s designed. Caballero is a young, open, accessible guy with a caring and thoughtful nature- the kind of principal we need, in a neighborhood who needs him. I was fortunate to both meet him and see the new school.
Now, we have:
The Sherman Elementary community who’ve been jerked around.
The Scripps Ranch Community who’ve been jerked around.
A solid message sent to the rest of the SDUSD staff that you may not expect rational treatment from your employer.
A solid message to parents that we may not expect rational treatment from those (the Board) that work for us.
Luis Acle, who’s judgement is clearly clouded- he can’t even get the correct signatures to keep his own job- is the only person giving us clues. <sarcasm> Helpful, thanks. <sarcasm>
So- when will the Board be accountable to us? When will the Board begin acting in our, and our children’s best interest?
