She will be voted through and that's a good thing. Charter schools will give black students more options. I can't believe the teacher's unions are so self serving, shame on them.
Read the bio on her and she seems very impressive and might actually do something positive for the advancement of education.
Except for the fact she has no actual background in education and has no idea what the position entails. That might be somewhat acceptable for something less important, such as HUD, but not for the oversight and curriculum standards of all the country's schools.
