Perhaps the WCSD Was Right in Appointing a CPA Superintendent

If you want somebody to cook up the figures, what better way to go since those "numbers" aren't going to look good once everything is released to the public if some kind of spin isn't implemented.

Too bad Charlotte got stuck with Morrison before all of the fallout:

he Nevada Dept. of Education today released its 2011-2012 Adequate Yearly Progress Report, a measurement based on federally required standardized tests.

Fewer than half of WCSD schools passed.

State and local officials downplayed the results and presented their solution: They will change the method of counting next year, eerily echoing Morrison's reshuffling which made him national superintendent of the year before bailing out to the land of Jesse Helms.

Charlotte-Mecklenburg officials want their graduation rate computation changed and hired just the right guy for the job.

Next week's grad stats for Morrison's third year will be less interesting than the PR spin of school district officials.

Miscellaneous News

It appears Washoe County is in the hot seat with a federal lawsuit being filed claiming D.A. Dick Gammick retaliated against the plaintiffs when they complained of sexual harassment.

What else is new under the sun? The women have a very tough row to hoe and will most likely settle. The county has unlimited money to bury them.

What the McNair case proves is you mess around, you will get burned, or in this case killed.

Jealousy is involved in so many killings.

I think this comment says it all:

McNair is like most married men, if they see a woman they want to be with they lie to get her in bed. McNair had no intention of leaving his family, he lied to this woman and the decision he made caused [sic] him his life. When one makes bad decisions everyone suffers, now his four sons are suffering, no father. His wife is suffering, no husband. His mother's heart is aching, she lost a son. His brother's heart is aching, he lost his brother. He probaby [sic] lied to this young woman about leaving his wife and she belived [sic] him. Women need to wake up. If a man truly loves his wife it doesn't matter how many times he goes to bed with you, the heart is always at home. This young woman made a made [sic] decision that caused [sic] her her life. May she rest in peace. I hope other women will learn from this tradegy [sic]. I really feel sorry for his young sons. How can this wife tell her sons that their father will never be coming home again.?

There's more here. It's not yet known whether McNair's girlfriend was herself murdered or that she killed herself.
