How will the community have a voice about its schools if the DPS School Board is disbanded?
Having many different factions fighting for control means no one’s in control. And we get the kinds of schools we have, which has been a disaster for most students. So we need to find a better way. Having a single point of accountability for DPS — the mayor — will create more accountability, not less. As an elected official, the mayor is accountable to the public. With few exceptions, every city in which the mayor is accountable for schools has seen student achievement rise. Plus, parents have the ultimate voice by choosing the school to which they will send their child.
