Really?
Chicago’s next Schools CEO said Tuesday he may have had a “personality’’ conflict with the head of the Rochester teachers union but his relationship with rank-and-file teachers in New York is “actually quite good” — despite a 95-percent no-confidence vote.
As he prepared to leave his Rochester superintendent’s post to take over the reins of the Chicago Public Schools, Jean-Claude Brizard defended his tenure in the city in Upstate New York. He said he received “hundreds’’ of supportive e-mails from Rochester teachers after the massive no-confidence vote that has made some Chicagoans question whether he can successfully negotiate a teachers contract here. The Rochester teachers contract expired in July, and no agreement is in sight.

The same stuff J-Fed was smoking when he said that most of the department supported him.
Will we see that Morale & Stress Survey anytime soon?
What about that UIC survey the department keeps hyping in department e-mail. When will we see the results of that year-long monstrosity?
Sounds like another legend in his own mind.
this guys seems like a stupid mother fucker
Now that J-Fled is gone can we see the results of the Morale Survey?
Just asking?
TRP
what a moron. just own up to it. say "I had to make some tough decisions that the union didn't like"
The hundreds of supportive emails he read were just encouraging him to get the fuck out.
That's how democrats spin things for the sheeple here in Illinois.
It's really really...really sad to assume that there is no other qualified person for the job. Instead "stupit" gets a second chance. EXample.....education ceo police sup.........fill in the blank. Amazing
You can see this mope is trouble from the word go. Don't be surprised if teachers take a hike in the fall. Madigan and Cullerton have already stuck their horns in the teachers with new rules for strikes and tenure.
OT: Another STELLAR Rahm pick. Yes, things are 'really gonna change now'.
From Clout Street today -
Mayor-elect Rahm Emanuel today named his Cultural Affairs team and said he plans to have Mayor Richard Daley's daughter help revive a long-dormant advisory panel.
Nora Conroy will chair the Chicago Cultural Affairs Advisory Committee. Conroy, the outgoing mayor's daughter, is director of outreach at Metropolis Strategies, a business and civic organization. She also chairs the board of trustees of the Steppenwolf Theatre Company and serves on the board of Navy Pier
