As a person that has been very active working within the Minneapolis Schools as a parent for many years, I questioned the hiring of David Jennings as the Super of the district at first. I questioned if he had the qualifications to do the job, but after the endorsement by former Super Johnson those questions faded and I supported the decision. Now that he was forced to resign it is really sad for the children and parents of the Minneapolis School System. Sad due to the fact of having a person that could have really made some much needed changes in the district is forced out by a group that has only one agenda, one that is not founded in the best interests of the school system. The school board may be able to find someone else that can do the job, but not someone that could step in and really make the kind of positive difference that Mr. Jennings would have made. When looking at the sorry state of the Minneapolis School System, just remember to place some of the blame on people like Randy Stanton and Spike Moss. Steve Sumner Waite Park
