I've been reading up on the history of Dunbar High School in Washington D.C. and thought to visit the D.C. Public School's website. I made my way to Dunbar High's site, then decided I wanted to see who was running the show this year.
Well, once I read that the current chancellor was an international relations major in undergrad and a leadership major in grad school, I didn't need to read the rest of the bio (though I did). Those two majors told me all I needed to know. Nonetheless I threw my hands up in a fit of rage anyhow!
I hope I never lose my shock and surprise at non-educators assuming roles that should be filled by well-intentioned, specially-trained, passionate educators. To lose my shock and surprise, in my mind, would mean that I've LOWERED my expectations and have come to expect or accept it.
I'm torn.
