Exodus of Sheffield School Personnel?

 



We've received several communications concerning the state of Sheffield City Schools. These range from non-support of resource officers to failing to back up teachers in decisions relating to discipline. There have also been reports of Davis' impromptu admin meetings causing disruption in both the classroom and the offices. 

We know some teachers and support staff are seeking other employment...if they haven't abandoned ship already. That brings us to the assistant superintendent.

At the time Keith Davis was hired as Sheffield's new super, many felt the position should have gone to Dr. Carlos Nelson. Many even went as far as to report to us that he was not offered the position due to race. Dr. Nelson handled this well, as we're told he does most situations. He has applied for other positions; rest assured he will at some point leave. What happens then?

You may remember that Dr. Keith Davis was terminated from his previous position. That didn't deter Sheffield from hiring him. Now there seems to be a great deal of buyers' remorse. 

The Sheffield City School Board needs to make some decisions at this point. The public is watching...
