First of all, I agree with the public and think that Ms. Black should not have been hired in the first place because she lacked sufficient knowledge on the subject of public schooling. There was time and the children future wasted with it. I think that dismissing her was a very good idea.

Second, I think that Mr. Walcott will do a better job as the new chancellor. He has a lot of experience within the public school system and he has kids and grand kids in the public school system, which I think will lead him to try harder to make these schools succeed. Being a chancellor of the terrible public school systems is a trying job in which not very many people of succeeded. All we can do is hope for the best from Mr. Walcott and hope that he has what it takes to change education for the sake of the kids in the school system.
