Unaccountable Principals

One of the worst principals in NYC and perhaps in the entire United States is allowed to keep her job and her current position at a high school where all of her wrongdoing took place.

I am sure Blige also has a union, and believe me, it is virtually impossible to get rid of administrators as a result.  When they are fired or forced to resign, it makes news because it is so rare.

New York Post:

The two-year probe was conducted only after teachers lodged a host of complaints about Blige's wrongdoings, according to United Federation of Teachers officials.

"I think it's outrageous," said UFT President Michael Mulgrew. "If the price for ruining someone's career is $7,500, where's the accountability?"

Mulgrew could ask that to me.  My principal was merely moved to another school as "punishment" for her incompetence and neglect when she should have been fired; the person ordering my "hit" is still head of human resources.

The more these crooks and cretins screw up, the better they do.

This 2009 protest of Blige didn't do any good, unfortunately:
