HISD Superintendent Mike Miles wants more power and it appears the school board thinks that's the way to go.
Sweeping financial and curriculum content changes that Houston ISD Superintendent Mike Miles has proposed that will give him the power to act quickly without going to the board for approval were the top bone of contention at Thursday night's board of education meeting.
Board of Managers member Ric Campos, calling on what he said was his business history of working with various governmental units, told fellow board members that what Miles was proposing was perfectly justifiable and needed. When board member Adam P. Rivon asked for monthly reports on what was being done, Campos said that information was already in the financial reports and requiring a separate report from the superintendent's office was just needless paperwork.
Ruth Hoffman Lack, a school psychologist who started as a teacher in Westbury High School in 1992 said no one person could be expected to know enough about everything to make informed decisions without input from other people. For his part, Miles characterized many of these statements as false and expressed his exasperation with what he what he said were continued misrepresentations of his policies.
