Beth Everitt,"Anybody can ask me anything."

bullshit

The Augusta Chronicle ran a story on Beth Everitt's selection as the superintendent of the Aiken County Schools. I will give you a (link). It's a bit of a hassle to use; you have to register (free), and then search for "Everitt", and then click on the story entitled "Board names leader"

Quoted here in significant part; (my own emphasis added)

Mr. Hightower said he had some concerns about Dr. Everitt, noting that he had heard allegations of audits and grade changes in Albuquerque schools.

Dr. Everitt said she welcomes anyone in Aiken to ask her about those situations.

Dr. Everitt and other educators in the Albuquerque system were the subject of an investigation about a grade that was changed by a principal from an F to a D, allowing a former board member's son to graduate, according to a New Mexico Department of Education transcript. The department found that Dr. Everitt and other administrators weren't at fault because they didn't have adequate information about the case when they backed the principal.

"Anybody can ask me anything." Everitt said.

Not true.

Not even close.

Everitt didn't back the principal, and she wasn't cleared by the NMPED. She was not asked even a single question on the record. Neither were the parents; a former school board member and his wife; a county commissioner.

They all escaped the investigation entirely;
as members in good standing of Albuquerque's
privileged class.



It is interesting that she said, anyone "in Aiken" can ask her questions. She sure won't answer questions in Albuquerque.

And not just my questions.

Jessica Garate, a local TV reporter, said she tried for two weeks to get Everitt to stand and deliver answers to a few legitimate questions, and Beth Everitt would not meet with her. (link) under "background checks".

Not only will she and the leadership of the APS
not answer questions; they will not allow them
to be asked.

• The Public Forum has been moved off of the public record of school board meetings so that she and board members can not be asked legitimate questions, on the record.
• Rather than have the community witness Beth Everitt and board members stonewall the questions, broadcast records of school board meetings were deliberately falsified to hide their (non)response to the question.
  

And I (as a bonafide candidate in a school board election) was actually removed from four board meetings by the APS Police for legal and ethical attempts to ask questions on the record. There are video tape records of all four incidents and I will absolutely stand on the record.

I was removed from four board meetings in a row, by members of a Praetorian Guard. A publicly funded, private police force that reports directly to the leadership of the APS, and only to the leadership of the APS.

I was removed for trying to ask Beth Everitt and board members a single question;

"Will you hold yourself honestly accountable to the student standard of conduct?"

Beth Everitt abdicated as the senior administrative role model for 89,000 of this community's sons and daughters. And she will not explain, defend, or even acknowledge that she has done so. None of the leadership of the APS will.

And the Albuquerque Journal and Tribune
are so corrupt, that they won't report upon it.

I hope either the Aiken Standard or the Augusta Chronicle will ask her why she removed the following language from her own standard of conduct;

In no case shall the standard of conduct for adults
be lower than the standard of conduct for students.

And then has the integrity to report the fact that she will not answer.

Not here

and not in Aiken.
