Hundreds gathered at the first Parent Assembly the District Parent Coordinating Council organized last Thursday at the Buffalo Academy of Visual and Performing Arts. But the accolades interim Superintendent Amber Dixon received were noticeable.
A few of the speakers and parents participating in the event recognized Dixon and the congratulatory words came from Sam Radford VP of the DPCC, parents asking questions and Regent Bennett himself who commented, "hats off to Amber Dixon" while a parent commented, "we appreciate having you as our superintendent."
So when is the next serious discussion about the search for a new superintendent? Well, at the Buffalo Board of Education meeting last week it's suppose to be in January.

"Let’s be honest: we need a lot more well-off, well-educated white folks with a personal stake in both charter schools and education reform in general if we’re going to take reform to the next level, both politically and operationally.Whitney Tilson, hedge fund manager and major funding angel for the school privatizing Democrats for Education Reform, thinks there’s not enough rich, educated white folks.( Preaprez) click photo to his blog.
