She is not what she appears. Once she gets the job she turns into a wolf and is extremely hard to remove from office. Her lawyers will pick you apart until you just cannot take any more. Don't be fooled by the "looks good - talks good" appearance. Spend a little money and do a complete background check. Find out WHY she was removed from the position here by both white and black Board members. Don't ask her to tell you why she was sent packing. Do the work and find out the true story. Tell her to show you her complete evaluation she received. Once you see that, you will drop her like a hot potato. Once she gets the job she will not work with the community, not deal with the media and trys to sneak her lesbian buddies into a high paying positions without your knowledge.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-51939081950206373292008-04-16T08:46:44.965-05:002008-04-16T08:46:44.965-05:00Why are we in such a hurry to find a superintendent? Just because a new board is coming in? The haste is going to put RUSD right back in the toilet, like with Hicks. Be careful RUSD. Learn from your past mistake. Take your time and find someone who is qualified, not just picking someone out of 3 who are not fully qualified. I am sure Dr. Parker will stay in the interim.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-91579372194663838922008-04-15T15:07:23.612-05:002008-04-15T15:07:23.612-05:00I disagree with your grades. Dr. Purcell's answers seemed too pat and practiced to me. She definitely knows all the keywords and the jargon but it takes a lot more than jargon to solve problems. Dr. Pulliam struck me as being much more down to earth. We don't need someone who is going to spout theories at us. We need someone who is genuinely going to connect with the community. I would give Pulliam an A- and Purcell a C+.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-2139142950963303142008-04-15T13:42:47.191-05:002008-04-15T13:42:47.191-05:00Really? This is the cream of the crop? I did not attend the public forum but the internet allows all of us to research potential candidates. I think the best thing to do is start this search over again! Racine needs a superindendent with at least 5 years of quality experience at that level. I simply refuse to believe that this is the best Racine can hope for...reach higher don't settle for mediocrity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-40779240072398102462008-04-15T09:28:33.670-05:002008-04-15T09:28:33.670-05:00They were critical of a Bush policy, what more do you need to get an 1 & a B grade?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-75874446656417895492008-04-15T08:41:46.147-05:002008-04-15T08:41:46.147-05:00Why an A and a B?
