Reported is, former Huntsville ISD superintendent Steve Johnson had retired leaving the school district looking for a new superintendent. If the truth be known, Mr. Johnson has secured a position at Education Service Center VI but not without first finalizing and approving thousands of dollars worth of contracts between Huntville ISD and ESC VI. Seriously? Is there not something wrong with this picture.
Mr. Johnson began his new “retirement” on 9/1/14 with a salary of $76, 814. If only all those who retired could be so lucky. The scratch my back and I will scratch yours is rampant throughout the Texas Education system. Huntsville ISD also has a school board member Sam Moak whose wife Kathy Moak works for ESC VI on the services provided to Huntsville ISD. I have yet to find where Mr. Moak has recused himself from voting on the contracts.
along with the school board have spent an enormous amount of thousands money of taxpayers money. ON WHAT? To educate teachers to better instruct students in math, english, science or social studies? NO! It was teducate administrators(superintendents, principals, technology personnel) on how to radically change the way children are taught. It will no longer be about reading writing and arithmetic but RIGOR, RELEVANCE & RELATIONSHIP, stemming from implementing the progressive teaching/learning technique referred to as Project Based Learning/CSCOPE.
