That’s What She Said

Carole Smith  must think we’re fools.  This is what she said 0n September 26, 2008 when talking about the challenges of PPS high schools:

We’re taking steps to change those statistics. In my speech to the City Club of Portland earlier this month, I pledged to engage the city in a serious conversation about high school reform. I also pledged not to close a high school campus. Let me tell you why.

This is what Carole said on April 26, 2010 “Marshall Campus schools – Renaissance Arts, BizTech and Pauling – would close in fall 2011.”

She can play with words and say she’s not closing a “campus” but by closing the schools on the Marshall campus….she’s closing the campus.
