In a Las Vegas exclusive, in blogs and the media, an area superintendent for CCSD is a finalist for the superintendents job in Milwaukee, WI.
From jsonline: The Milwaukee School Board has narrowed its list of candidates for Milwaukee Public Schools' next superintendent to three, the school district announced in a news release Thursday night.
The three finalists are:
• Robert Alfaro, area superintendent of the Clark County School District, Las Vegas, Nev.
• Stacy Scott, associate superintendent of Montgomery County Public Schools, Rockville, Md.
• Gregory Thornton, superintendent, Chester Upland Public Schools, Chester, Pa. http://www.jsonline.com/news/milwaukee/79586482.html
Even though I am a teacher in CCSD, I do not know Robert Alaro. I do know he is the Area 2 superintendent for CCSD. For the Area 2 web site: http://ccsd.net/areas/2/
MPS is having severe financial difficulties and Mr. Alaro would be a great person to deal with the financial problems as CCSD has been under financial distress for the past couple of years. In fact, MPS probably spends twice the amount of money per student as CCSD. The high schools in the area are not that tough like, say Vincent, in Milwaukee, however, they do have, for the most part, have a high minority student population.
So, good luck to Mr. Alaro in getting the job. But if he gets the job, he will face many major problems in MPS, a school system that is basically a cesspool, a school board that is incompetent and a State and local government that is also very incompetent.
