Why You Should Care Mr. Crabill has found quite the acolyte in Director Chandra Hampson. In the course of discussions over SOFG, she says his name over and over, "A.J .says we...." Now that's not too surprising given the direction the district is heading and that it is Mr. Crabill's work with the Council of Great City Schools is how we got here.

the reason for the third administrator at Broadview-Thomson is because the principal can't handle the job as other principals are required to do.....the funds being spent on a third administrator should be spent on direct support for student learning as the school is a failing school according to NCLB...
then why is no one holding the principal accountable?
