APS' Perfect Storm

There is the chance

to profoundly change the future of the APS
in an incredibly positive way for ever.


Winston Brooks;

could find himself the first superintendent in the history
of the Albuquerque Public Schools

honestly accountable
to meaningful standards of conduct and competence

by a system over which he has no undue influence and
powerful enough to hold him accountable to those
standards of conduct and competence;
even against his will.


instead of

Winston Brooks being accountable to good ol' boy standards,
and only to other good ol' boys.

The only down side is for those good ol' boys
whose record of public service
cannot withstand the first APS accountability audit.


And if the second annual audit is not clean;
there would then be a down side for Winston Brooks.


...which is as it should be.
