Philadelphia Superintendent Speaks To Principals, Denies Buyout Rumors

The Philadelphia Inquirer (8/19, Graham) reports that Philadelphia superintendent Arlene C. Ackerman met with Philadelphia's school principals this week, speaking about the challenges she has faced, and asking, "Is it a crime to stand up for children instead of stooping down into the political sandbox and selling our children for a politician's victory?" However, the article continues, "it has been widely rumored that Ackerman is on her way out as superintendent." Ackerman is denying rumors that she is in negotiations to buy out her contract.
