Kiko's in the Carpetbag! An Unruly Action Alert!

Stop the presses and fire up the email! We just received word through the grapevine that former East Side superintendent and professional despotic carpetbagger Esperanza Zendejas applied for a superintendent’s position in Riverside County. AND SHE MADE IT INTO THE FINAL ROUND!

We didn’t hear which district she applied to, but a quick search on the Riverside County Office of Education site and a little help from Google led us to one district in that county searching for a superintendent: Moreno Valley Unified School District. Check out the personal characteristics they’re looking for, and see if Kiko’s handler fits the bill. Will provide our own answers to these points too. Just click on the links:

Provide open and honest communication to work effectively with the governing board.

Be adaptable, fair, approachable, visible, open-minded with the welfare of students being the focus of decisions.

Be able to build partnerships with various agencies, local businesses, and officials

Possess communication skills and be able to communicate in a forthright, sensitive manner.
