Douglass has earned an excellent reputation for providing high-quality education in every respect, and this has been demonstrated by the District’s own performance assessments. I find it ironic that, despite these results, the decision is to displace the school by removing the very people who made it successful—its students and teachers. Ultimately, the message this sends is: it doesn’t matter how well you perform; if the District wants you out, it can remove you and replace you with another school.
