Calling Out the Most Culpable Academic Abusers of Our Children at the Minneapolis Public Schools >>>>>
Looking Toward the June 2021 Edition of Journal of the K-12 Revolution: Essays and Research from Minneapolis, Minnesota
Incisiveness in journalism is a
hit or miss proposition.
Many stories are trivial.
Most reporters have after all been
educated in the United States, in which k-12 education is terrible and
post-secondary education--- whether
community college, technical college, four-year college, or university--- at best prepares attendees for specific careers
and professions. Very few people who graduate
from educational institutions at any level go forth as broadly knowledgeable
citizens. This includes reporters for
newspapers, magazines, and journals---
whether in traditional printed format or presented online.
Lack of key knowledge sets and
having no understanding of the constituent elements of an excellent education
most likely explain the terrible education reporting by the Star Tribune’s Mara Klecker, Erin Golden,
Anthony Lonetree, and Ryan Faircloth. Also
quite possible is the circumstance that editors at the Star Tribune have conveyed to these staff writer that they are not
at liberty to write negative stories that tell the ugly truth about the incompetence
of most actors in the education establishment, whose cooperative responses they
need to gather information for uncreatively conceived or written articles that
merely describe the programs and current activities of bureaucrats who academically
abuse our children every day their feet hit the ground.
Such inept reporting never gets
close to the actual dilemmas of the public schools, which lie in knowledge-poor
curriculum and academic decision-makers having no serious scholarly training.
Thus will journalistic functionaries
never call out United States Department of Education Secretary Miguel Cardona
for having no training in a major academic discipline (mathematics, biology,
chemistry, physics, history, economics, government, literature, or the fine arts). They will never expose the similarly paltry
academic preparation of Minnesota State Education Commissioner Heather4
Mueller. And at the local level, they
will not identify those academic decision-makers who have little subject area
knowledge, nor will they specify Minneapolis Public Schools Board of Education
members for the particular ineptitude that they bring to their positions.
In my forthcoming June 2021
edition of my Journal of the K-12
Re3volution: Essays and Research from
Minneapolis, Minnesota, I rectify, as is my wont, this failure of
journalists other than myself to call out those people who are responsible for
the wretched level of education in the United States, in the cases below referring
to individuals associated with the iteration of public education in the United
States known as the Minneapolis Public Schools.
The June edition will examine
the specific incompetence and intellectual insubstantiality of the following key
actors at the Minneapolis Public Schools:
Superintendent Ed Graff
Interim Senior Academic Officer
Aimee Fearing
Associate Superintendents Shawn
Harris-Berry, LaShawn Ray, Ron Wagner, and
Brian Zambreno
Office
of Black Student Achievement Director Michael
Walker
Department
of Indian Education Director Jennifer Rose Simon
The
edition also examines the failures of the following:
Senior
Human Resources Officer Maggie
Sullivan
Senior
Accountability, Research, and Equity Officer Eric Moore
Executive Director, Office of
the Superintendent Suzanne Kelly
Engagement
and External Relations Director Celina Martina
The
incompetence and slim academic credentials of the following members of the
Minneapolis Public Schools Department of Teaching and Learning will be
highlighted:
Math
Christopher Wernimont
Erin Clarke
Jennifer Hanzak
Marium Toure’
Reading
Julie Tangemann
Meghan Gasdick
Molly Siebert
Molly Vasich
Science
Erin Clarke
Christen Lish
Jenn Ross
Julie Tangemann
And in the June 2021 edition of Journal of the K-12 Revolution: Essays and Research from Minneapolis,
Minnesota, the particular failure and corruption of the following members
of the Minneapolis Public Schools Board of Education will be examined:
Jenny Arneson (District 1)
Kim Ellison (At-Large)
Nelson Inz (District 5)
………………………………………………………………………………………….
Academically insubstantial curriculum
and staff ineptitude represent the core failures of our system of public education
in the United States. At many places on
this blog and in the many public platforms that I have created or in which I
participate, I call out those responsible for academically abusing our
children.
Look forward to the soon forthcoming June
2021 edition of Journal of the K-12
Revolution: Essays and Research from
Minneapolis, in which I I examine the culpability of the individuals given
above.
