McGinley "Needs" Fifth Associate Superintendent

Five and counting.

That's how many associate superintendents are now in the Charleston County School District, thanks to Superintendent McGinley's needs. [See McGinley Creates New Leadership Position in Thursday's P&C.]

With so many chiefs, McGinley can sit back to watch; when programs fail, she can blame them.

There seems to be no hiring freeze for bureaucrats, just for teachers and staff. Just maybe there's some better use for those Title 1 funds.

Teachers thank you.

A previous post might have more accurately described this as "...Nancy McGinley and her [every increasing] entourage...”

Please tell us how this is supposed to save money and improve educational opportunities in the classroom? As one comment on the P&C blog described this latest move by the superintendent and rubber stamped by the county school board, "More chiefs and fewer Indians."

I take a different view. She's in total charge now. She can't blame it on others, like constituent boards or the minority of votes on the county board she hasn't sewn up. Any shortcomings and all mistakes are hers and hers alone. Now let's see if she possesses enough professional maturity to accept total responsibility.
