A second "hearing" was held for Bethune at Chalmers School. This is one of several proposed additional hearings that are to give the managers of the Turnarounds, Academy of Urban School Leadership the chance to present themselves to the community. The irony, perhaps intentional, is that Chalmers is in a gang area dangerous for those from the Bethune community to enter into.
Aside from two representatives from AUSL, a court reporter and the hearing officer, Fred Bates, there were three representatives of the Grassroots Education Movement, GEM. Two of the educational activists were the only ones to speak at this "hearing.'
For the very complete story on this, go here.Note: Holmes Elementary also boycotted the AUSL hearing, held Tuesday February 10.
