Education Commissioner Mitchell D. Chester is at
Charlton Street Elementary School this morning for a press conference to unveil
a turnaround plan that will guide changes in the chronically underperforming
district of about 2,200 students.
The comprehensive 70-page plan includes priorities
and strategies to accelerate student achievement and benchmarks connected to
student outcomes.
The plan said that the district's state-appointed
receiver has the right to lay off teachers and staff, and reorganize, consolidate,
or abolish departments, positions or school functions, and create new ones, but
does not specify how that would materialize.
