Here’s another look at Tony Tata’s firing. I have to say as likable as the General is, I think his lack of experience in education was one of his biggest flaws.
I’m hoping the board can find a Bill McNeal type to be the new superintendent.
It is telling that the Greater Raleigh Chamber of Commerce, Wake County Tax Payer’s Association, Wake County Republican Party, and Tea Party members of the BOE are supporting Tata. They are calling the firing a partisan distraction. Nonsense. First, a vote along party lines isn’t necessarily a partisan vote, and not all partisan decisions are necessarily bad decisions. Second, how is it a “distraction” to ensure WCPSS has a qualified, effective superintendent?

You know that “Parents Across America” is affiliated w/ Great Schools in Wake and has their own agenda, right? This is not reporting — it’s opinion. Opinion that lacks much context.
