In This Piece,

charter schools are the wedge being driven to destroy public education.

Talk about theft. The Bloomberg/Klein game plan is clear. Starve the public schools to such an extent they must be branded failures. They even go so far as to put in a principal they know will prove incompetent – someone who will disparage children, teachers and parents, alienating all so even they will want the school closed. A prime example was the notorious Jolanta Rohloff who was installed at Lafayette HS to drive the final nail in the coffin. Her fellow trainees at the Principal Academy sniggered when she got a job over so many others, sine they looked at her as a joke. She is now running the Staten Island rubber room – at $150,000 a year. I have many other examples. (See my blog about horror story Suzanne Joseph of MS 113K). Insidious indeed.
