It appears that the transition has begun. Eubanks will replace Jacobs as Board Chairman...........It should be interesting as things play out.

That would be interesting to hear. I haven't done any research on his background yet but hopefully his affiliation with the NEA will garner some connections that can really help bring resource into the school system.

It's funny how we have both thrown out the word "interesting" in this thread. I think it to be true.

Default Prince George’s school board chairman: ‘I’ve got a lot of catching up to do’

Here is another articel on Eubanks. It provides a little more insight into his background...

I'm impressed. Not only does he have experience, he has a frickin' PhD. in education policy. Hello! Makes mucho sense. Wonder how fast we can see changes.

And that is the question everyone wants to know. Will this shakeup produce tangible change that can be seen as positive for the long term growth

I think it could but that is going to be about a 15 year effort. It won't be overnight by any means.

Yeah I did like that about him. As well as the fact that he lives here and has educated his kids in our system which means he has practical experience (from the eyes of a parent) dealing with the system as it is now. That should compliment his experience in policy.
