So many lessons in this one article about the new principal of Stuyvesant High School in NYC…<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
    \n
  1. As I often tell friends, if you’re not on track to be a principal by age 35, you are screwed. Education is at least as ageist a field as any other.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Selective high schools are bad for democracy.<\/li>\n
  3. What the hell is the “High School of Teaching, Liberal Arts and the Sciences?” They left out lunch and P.E. in the school’s name. Again, I remind you that children of privilege attend schools named for poets, Dead Presidents, and trees.<\/li>\n
  4. Nothing trumps an educator of color super dedicated to test-prep.<\/li>\n
  5. Of course the current Principal of the vulgar Stuyvesant is going to head a military boarding school. That’s what Stuyvesant creates.<\/li>\n
  6. WOWEE!!!! A former teacher becomes a principal!!!! There must be a shortage of 7-11 night managers with Broad training.<\/li>\n
  7. 4% of Stuyvesant students are children of color in NYC!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
