East Baton Rouge Parish School Board voted to not renew Superintendent Dr. Sito Narcisse's contract.
Several issues with the school district have been in the spotlight: a bus shortage, a bus driver's strike, a teacher shortage and a budget crisis.
We have a 17 percent increase in kids that are reading on a second grade level in just two years.
Ninth graders reading at second grade level is no fricking accomplishment!

At what point do we actually blame the parents for burying their noses in their phones instead of raising their kids?

Those type of things we never saw in Baton Rouge, those type of things we hadn't saw in a lot of districts across the state, so we're being innovative here, we're moving forward here. We are doing things here that will actually make a difference in the lives on our students," resident Dr. Jaleesa Thompson said.

Wonder what kind of doctor that queen be?

Education, or lib arts guaranteed.

Education, or lib arts PhD is beneath a sophomore in stem. If we are being honest.

I Googled a pic of him.

Not saying it's right, but there's a reason some folk won't HIRE someone who they know will present difficulty when it comes time to fire them.

Not the community, it's certain politicians rallying their machine in support.

I won't pretend to be super-attuned to all the ins and outs, but there are 2 factor to consider;

1. Compared to what we had before, ANYTHING is an improvement
2. Someone better qualified WANTS the job

The average American is literate at the 7th - 8th grade level. The bar isnt very high.

Parents won't do it so we need something real. Is it possible to focus on reading and math for 2-3 hours and have the kids do their homework assignments in school?
