Dr. Ann Yehle has been named principal of McKinley Middle School, replacing Lori Sue Pelk, who took a job in North Carolina.
Dr. Yehle will join the district on Sept. 15. Most recently she was executive director of Educational Services for the Madison School District, where she previously was a middle school principal and special education teacher. She also worked for the Department of Public Instruction as an administrator for the Title I, principal leadership and support to the Milwaukee Public Schools.
Supt. Jim Shaw said, "Dr. Yehle's experience in urban education will provide the leadership for McKinley Middle School to improve student achievement and reach the goals of the district's North Star vision. Her experience as a school leader will help build an inclusive school community with a focus on integrated units, small teams, collaborative time, community involvement, and student voice."
What exactly does "Urban Education" mean?
ReplyDeleteAnother Madison comrade for Shaw.
ReplyDeleteI wonder how many more cronies from Madison will come here?
ReplyDeleteCronies from Madison? If Shaw can't find the right people here in Racine - and considering the problems we've had with some of the people we have in administration, why wouldn't he look elsewhere? - it seems logical to look at people he already knows and have a proven track record.
ReplyDeleteIt does not matter who they bring in. RUSD is a losing proposition no matter what they do - send your kids to private school if you really value their education.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the real world Dr. What works in Madison just may not work here- we have bad areas, not just a few scattered bad buildings.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, I wish you the best and hope you can start making significant changes in a positive way.
Nothing can help RUSD - send your kids to a private school.
