But then again you never hear of just how much his ideas have been the ruination of the school system from the Post, the News and the Times who have been drinking his and Bloomberg's kool aid since they began their dismantling of what was once a great school systgem under the guise ofg Mayoral Control That being the case, you don't think Mr. Klein will admit what a mistake this was by doing anything to this Principal, now do you? As Yogi Berra once said, what makes a great manager are great ballplayers. What makes a good school are good students, students who care, students who desire an education. We all went to school with great teachers and Principals, good teachers and Principals, fair teachers and principals and even a few, very few, bad ones. It is not the staff that determines how "good" a school is, it's the kids who attend the school.

"It seems that Saraceno had Carte Blanche with those teachers’ grades. A Superprincipal does not mean that she is exempt from following rules, policies, and the Collective Bargain Agreement. There are too many administrators out there that think that they have this purported power of authority to do whatever they want. Shamefully, they are only defrauding the school system with these inflated graduation rates and bogus stats. Why hasn’t Bloomberg commented on this in public? Why hasn’t Klein put the Saraceno in the rubber room until the investigation is completed? Isn’t that what they do to teachers when they are being investigated or are principals exempted from being placed in there?" Yet, she's still at the school. What's bad is good and what's good is bad!
