PBC School Superintendent Dr. Robert Avossa, Ed.D.:

Do you think Dr. Avossa “is greedy and adding to
the ‘swamp’ of cronyism” as was published in
The Palm Beach Post yesterday?

From the biography of
Dr. Avossa:

Dr. Robert Avossa is in his third year of leadership of the Palm Beach County School District. The District is the 11th largest district in the country with a student enrollment of more than 193,000 students. The annual budget exceeds $2.4 billion and the District is the largest employer in Palm Beach County with over 23,000 employees.
     Since accepting the role of Superintendent, Dr. Avossa has redirected $5.5 million of the District budget back to Title I schools to support teaching and learning. He has also allotted 6% in salary increases to personnel, including an increase of the minimum District wage to $10 per hour, and an increase to $14 per hour for bus drivers, making them the highest paid in South Florida.

and. . .

     Dr. Avossa is a Broad Academy Fellow and a member of Chiefs for Change, an esteemed network of state and district education Chiefs. He serves locally on the boards for the American Heart Association, CareerSource Palm Beach County, Children’s Services Council, Criminal Justice Commission, and Education Foundation of Palm Beach County.
     Dr. Avossa is a University of South Florida graduate with a Bachelor’s Degree in Exceptional Education and Behavior Disorders, as well as a Master’s Degree in Special Education. He earned his Doctorate Degree from Wingate University.

Whilst on the subject of
schools, parents, children,
and famlies. . .

 What does your famly think of the job
being done by Dr. Avossa?
“Famalies” and more “Famlies”!

Were members of your famalie “scratching their heads” when they saw this headline?
“Delaney slips past Klug”?

Do you think Dr. Avossa has done well at embracing the “roll” of an outsider?

Remember this in the Post? A mangled headline for a Washington Post syndicate story:
Most famalies would agree, our Palm Beach County schools have improved immensely under the leadership of Dr. Avossa. What does
your famlie think?
