Hernandez Demoted

Palm Beach County School Board has demoted Jeffrey Hernandez. You may remember that he has been involved in much controversy over the curriculum and testing changes. They are still going to pay his contract. Why pay someone who does not do their job? Who agreed to a contract that would force the schools to keep paying someone that does not do their job?

Hernandez will now hold an advisor position to help low performing schools. This is odd since the job he was removed from was to improve performance for all schools. Can he only improve the low schools? Low schools often show improvements by just showing some interest in the students and a small change in the curriculum or new materials. Can Hernandez not perform change at a more advance level?

Let’s ask why keep him on staff at all.
