Yesterday's News-Enterprise reviews 3 (of the 6) resume indescretions on Barbara Erwin's application and asks why teachers appear unconcerned?
This from the News-Enterprise.
Maybe we’re wrong in our assumption that Kentuckians are apathetic about the quality and credibility of the individual who is charged with improving the quality of Kentucky’s education system. If so, where is the public outcry?
Why has leadership within the Kentucky Education Association simply stated they are giving Erwin “the benefit of the doubt” that her resume accurately reflects her experience, credentials and accomplishments?
Why aren’t teachers, parents and taxpayers asking Erwin to publicly provide an explanation and answers to the questions surrounding her resume, maybe the same ones that apparently “satisfied” Chairman Keith Travis and the other members of the Kentucky Board of Education.
Why haven’t superintendents and school board members across the commonwealth at least asked for a review of the selection and appointment process so that appropriate and necessary improvements can be made to avoid surprises like these in the future?
Why?
We’re not sure.
Maybe to most Kentuckians basketball really is more important. And that’s disappointing.
