Media: HOI is THE TV station for D150 coverage

May 14, 2008 in Watchdog Tags: , ,

Once again, HOINews came through for parents at District 150 schools. Last night, I caught their 10 p.m. newscast, and there were two — count ‘em, TWO — reports related to the quality of education at Peoria’s public schools. One was a follow-up to the station’s original report on how some school’s aren’t meeting state-mandated physical education requirements. The other was a report on how a principal who lost a no-confidence vote was pegged as a new vice principal at the newly reconstituted Manual High School. Kudos to the folks at HOI News. It’s sometimes hard to get any coverage at all on other stations.

    I remember Ms Jenkins from Peoria Players - she served on the board with distinction. I also know Dr Sharon Kehrat (WHOI really mangled her name) and my admiration and confidence in her is unbounded.

    I don’t know the details of the no-confidence vote, I doubt anybody outside the school does - I don’t remember much blogging about it. On the surface, I would say it’s a good decision.
