We the taxpayers pay her and the teachers. What's going on is schools should be public knowledge. Follow her history from the past where she never stays on a job more then two years. She furthers the Broad Foundadation urban program which actually tears down schools and doens't increase anything but more welfare. While you are at it they say they face a $30 million shortfall, what about the $55 milllion they received in stimulus and created or saved 0 jobs? What about the city, goverments and firms in Rockford that received $100 million in stimulus and created 82 jobs? Go to recovery.gov and look for yourself. Sheffield is not helping the situration.

This is outrageous! The appropriate response is you have the student arrested for assault on the spot and then you proceed to expel the student. Students know that they will only receive light discipline for what they do, they have no reason to control their behavior. This superintendent is creating a dangerous environment for students and staff with her rewritten discipline code. She is not worth minimum wage let alone the $210k we pay this superintendent. This situation is only going to escalate from hear. 3 days of OSS for putting a teacher in the hospital?! This is outrageous!
