article wrote:After more than three years in the job, Rhee's tenure is among the longest of any D.C. chancellor or superintendent in the past two decades. Measures of student performance generally improved during her time in the job but sagged in a round of test results released in August.

She closed more than two dozen schools, fired teachers by the hundreds and spent more than two years negotiating a labor contract that gives principals new control over teacher hiring while establishing a new performance-pay system that ties compensation to growth on student test scores.

Whew…now they can go institutionalized failure.

She served just over three years and that is the longest anyone has held that job in 20 years?!?
That is just ridiculous.
That mayor will no doubt dump her deputy who is temporarily replacing her and she is probably the last hope those schools have if I'm understanding the situation there.
And then when the place heads back down the toilet where it was before he can blame Bush for it and get re-elected by doing so.
DC is an embarrassment to America on so many levels why should the schools there be an exception? How dare she try to make them something to be proud of!?!?
Spidey nailed it, they will find a way to rescue defeat from the jaws of victory no matter what.

It it all about the term the demoscammers are touting \"New Normal\"

Wasn't she just spotlighted in one of those blackberry commercials?
