In 2018 I posted:
In the continuing unraveling of the child abuse stories at CPS, the Chicago Tribune has now come across reports of a cover-up involving former CPS CEO Paul Vallas.
I have no clue what some people find appealing about the guy. It might be nothing more than his skin color.
As the architect of Chicago school reform under Mayor Daley, partnered with Arne Duncan for a time, he was a camera hog and an educational disaster.
His ties to the SUPES scandal that sent CPS CEO Barbara Byrd-Bennett to prison still have not been fully explored by the press.
HIs disastrous mostly abbreviated school leadership roles in Philly, Bridgeport and New Orleans have been well documented.
There is little doubt that his choice by Pat Quinn as a running mate in their race against Bruce Rauner was a contributing factor in Rauner’s victory.
But possible covering up for child molestors?
He has not responded to the Trib story.
Because there was no choice, my brother had to send his kid out of state. The schools here would not serve a dysgraphic kid.
He will win because his opponent cannot bring himself to offer any changes which will address the concerns of ordinary people in neighborhoods like mine.
Out here, most people went for Chuy. Now they are trying to adjust to Garcia's loss. Going to Selma didn't help Johnson out here. Time is running out. Johnson needs to say something, give people some reason to vote for him.
