I wish Ty'relle Stephens luck with his campaign. The RIDE has never done much good, neither have state takeovers of school districts. It is almost guaranteed to fail. Promotion of charters makes it harder to run a school district. NIce to see such clarity.
So to start as with all things Providence does with the schools the hybrid school board is a set up for failure. We should have a fully elected school board with real responsibility and power to govern the schools. This hybrid will end up handing control back to the mayor wait and see. Our current mayor and the last two are and were strong supporters of charter schools and there has been little pushback from the school board. Quite the contrary there are members who work for charter schools. Charter schools and mayoral control have been the leading reasons for the disaster we call the Providence School Department. Charter schools are legalized theft of PUBLIC TAX DOLLARS that is why politicians are so fond of them
What has been occurring in Providence to the students and the taxpayers is nothing short of criminal neglect and outright racism
