Minneapolis Public Schools (MPS) Associate
Superintendent Ron Wagner is one of four staff members at the Davis Center (MPS
central offices, 1250 West Broadway) who occupy the associate superintendent
position, which in each case is remunerated at a level of $144,330.
The Associate Superintendents report directly
to Michael Thomas (Chief of Academics, Leadership, and Learning with salary of
$163,761). Inasmuch as Thomas’s Deputy
Chief of Academics, Leadership, and Learning is Cecilia Saddler (salary,
$151,980); and Chief of Research,
Innovation, Assessment, and Accountability Eric Moore (salary, $147,900) is by
definition accountable for academic results for students in the Minneapolis
Public Schools; these two, along with
Thomas, must be held responsible for the academic results produced at schools
for which Cavender and the other associate superintendents have direct
oversite.
On this, the previous, and the two succeeding
articles as you scroll down this blog, I will be giving data for the assessment
of the performances of the individual associate superintendents, on the basis
of academic performance for students at schools under their supervision. All of these data and accompanying analysis
is derived from material that I am entering into chapters of my substantially
complete book, Understanding the
Minneapolis Public Schools: Current
Condition, Future Prospect.
As you peruse the following data presentation,
be attentive to the fact that Bryn Mawr, Jefferson, Nellie Stone Johnson, Hall,
Jenny Lind, and Lucy Laney and Sullivan are all schools with a high percentage
of students on free or reduced price lunch, indicative of high concentrations
of poverty; The schools of Kenwood, Lake
Nokomis, Lyndale, and Webster vary from school to school but in general do not
feature as many high poverty students in their populations. The schools of Burroughs, Kenny, Lake Harriet
Lower, Lake Harriet Upper, and Pratt have affluent and in some cases very
affluent student populations.
Consider now the Minnesota Comprehensive
Assessment (MCA) data for 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017 as pertinent to the
school’s under Ron Wagner’s oversite:
