So, Randy’s first official day. Whoo hoo. They had extra cleaning crew come in last night to scrub the skeez from Terry’s former office.
Former Cabinet Member Corrine McGuigan, Terry’s favorite gal, was “let go” at the January Conference….in the hallway….in between presenting her sessions on leadership. Ouch.
Yvonne Ryans lost her section a few weeks back. Professional development is gone. No Summer Institutes. No January Conference. She is still waiting for word on her future within the agency. I hope she stays.
Terry announced Howard Deleeuw as the new Director of Migrant and Bilingual. I enjoy Howard. His desk is messier than mine. Apparently, a few in the migrant & bilingual community do not agree with Terry’s decision.
Yes, Mr. Chee was weaseled into the Project Lead the Way position.
Terry’s long-time assistant, Tony Montoya, is staying to work for Randy, even though he is eligible for retirement.
Sadly enough, John Aultman is staying to oversee governmental relations.

Saw Chee holding TB’s hand the whole time. What is he? The personal assistant to TB?
Why is he only pushing a vendor like Project Lead The Way? Gene never did that. Even at the conference Gene was doing presentations on STEM. Chee was in the room looking like it was a big surprise to see Gene doing his presentation on ALL available STEM programs in Washington. Wish Gene was back in OSPI. Chee doesn’t know he’s over his head. He never taught and has no clue what STEM is all about.

Does anybody know where Terry is landing? Rumor has it, she’s trying to get the regional position for the federal Dept of Education…which means she’s still able to influence the direction of OSPI. Contact Patty Murray/Maria Cantwell and tell thed no way!
