Detroit School Board President Fights Over Control with Outside Manager via Email: FAIL

I have to stress, this guy is the School Board President. One would expect him, then, to have a minimum level of education. And a minimum level of familiarity with the English language. (He's native-born, I think, so he can't claim English-as-a-Second-Language as a reason for his lack of erudition.)

Did I mention he's the School Board President? And fighting the changes sought by an outside emergency manager?

We're in the very best of hands, as Instapundit says. Here are some choice emails from Otis Mathis, Detroit School Board President, explaining why he should continue on with sole control over kids' education:

"Do DPS control the Foundation or outside group? If an outside group control the foundation, then what is DPS Board row with selection of is director? Our we mixing DPS and None DPS row's, and who is the watch dog?"

Do DPS control? Do they ever!!!

"If you saw Sunday's Free Press that shown Robert Bobb the emergency financial manager for Detroit Public Schools, move Mark Twain to Boynton which have three times the number seats then students and was one of the reason's he gave for closing school to many empty seats."

We has a lot of reason's kids does not read well.

The emergency manager ended the policy of social promotion. You can see the effects of that policy in the emails written by the school board president. He is, obviously, a near-illiterate.

Thanks to circa.
