The Deceptive Character of the Lisa Sayles-Adams Administration
As
detailed in the Introductory Comments of this edition of Journal of the K-12
Revolution: Essays and Research from
Minneapolis, Minnesota, Superintendent Lisa Sayles-Adams heads an administration
that is highly deceptive as to matters regarding Davis Center staffing:
With
varying claims of 14.22%, 11.74%, and 13.8% in staff reductions as Fiscal Year
2026 Budget (FY26 Budget) is finalized, the stark fact is that none of these
claims is legitimate, if the public is seeking to know the true number by which
staff actually occupying positions at the Davis Center will have been reduced
by the time FY 26 Budget is finalized.
This figure, as explained in the
Introductory Comments, if extrapolated from the data given for FTE reductions,
would be in the aggregate a reduction of only one (1) staff member.
If this is true, then there have been twenty-nine
new hires, because my analysis of the staff members given on a list as of 14
April 2025 and those given on a list as of 13 May 2025, find an absence of the
following thirty (30) Davis Center staff members who had appeared on the 14 April
list who do not appear on the 13 May list.
Those not appearing on the 13 May list
are as follows >>>>>

If one aggregate
Davis Center staff reduction occurred between 14 April 2025 and 13 May 2025,
the excising of 30 staff members as given above would have been countered by an
addition of 29 staff members as FY26 Budget is approved by the Minneapolis
Public Schools Board of Education.
But the
deceptive character of the Superintendent Lisa Sayles-Adams administration
requires on my part ever present vigilance to arrive at exact figures and the prevailing
truth.
