Philadelphia Will Do  
 

Hi, Haters

A story in today’s Inquirer details the efforts of two Philadelphia Academy Charter School parents; Megan Snyder Galo and Lisa George were alarmed by problems with the school’s administration.

Turns out the school’s founder and its CEO may have used school funds for personal gain; they’ve both been fired.

And here’s how the two whistleblowers were thanked!

George said she was shunned in the school yard by a parent who told her she had to step away because she didn’t want to be seen standing near one of the “troublemakers.” Others accused them of trying to hurt the school and called them “the haters.” Even their children felt it.

“Some of their kids’ friends wouldn’t be friends with them anymore,” said one staff member who did not want to be quoted by name.

Oh, what a happy age we live in, when parents are now calling each other haters.

    Not parents calling these women “haters”, that came out of the mouth of a teacher. So disturbing.

    I applaud the efforts of these women. What about the kids? The school is getting money from the offenders. What happens to the children that were short-changed from the actions of these school administrators? I am the aunt of one of them. I want action for my niece that “graduated” in June. The actions of these administrators will have long lasting effects on these children. What options are available?
