Safety issues require urgent action This is a basic understanding of any functioning school district
Safety issues require urgent action This is a basic understanding of any functioning school district
Thank you @20003ist and @kdrkrepp for speaking for parents and students last night on @ABC7News. We won’t rest until the entire public school system is doing all it can to #ProtectOurChildrenDC. Our system has failed & been lax for too long. wjla.com/features/7-on-…
What would we do without concerned parents and media to help. KEEP PUSHING. Ferebee Continues to show he doesn’t care about the children in this city @dclinenews @ABC7News @WashInformer @DCPSChancellor

We always ask poor black and brown kids to beat the odds, be resilient, have grit. But never talk about fixing the system that requires that of them.
I'm making sure my security clearance is up to date...

We need urgency @DMEforDC @DCPSChancellor @dcpcsb @MayorBowser @OSSEDC. Parents looks forward to answers to our June 12th sign-on letter asap. We would also like to know the state of background checks going into the start of school. Are we at 100%?

Parents are grateful for media b/c we don’t see action & transparency from the city without you re schools too. Ex: lead in water, sewage in school cafeteria, & sexual misconduct against minors. You would think the issues alone would make city leaders jump,but not without media

I heard from three separate sources about the involuntary transfer. Do you know which person went to which school?

@dcschoolmonitor Frankly I can less about the letter. In most states if you do not have this background done... you cannot teach or be in a school. Also, the fact that no member of Council or SBOE chose to attend this meeting is disgraceful
Exactly. Well said. Complete lack of pro-active effort and transparency. These are simple, common practices followed by all organizations - particularly those where adults are in power positions over children.

This letter is fine. As a start. Where is the timeline and plan for resolving the 1300 or so who need their clearances updated. Without a plan with dates and milestones there continues to be just talk WITHOUT transparency. Take it seriously.

I hoped to hear instead, "Bottom line, it is unacceptable we haven't been doing what it takes to meet even basic safety requirements. We will work around the clock until we have a comprehensive, transparent system of protections incl 100% background checks, training & supports"

Interesting article but it’s incomplete. In many DC cases Reenrollments in new schools are based on serious student issues on a path to be removed from their original school, a failing school OR a lack of parent involvement. Moving students often moves the problems. It’s complex
