Mark Sanchez gets a pass in the revolving door

This is interesting: S.F. school board hires Sanchez as principal

We have occassionally been critical of Mark during his tenure on the BOE. But I'm happy to see him return to the district as an educator. Lets not forget that he had to give up his teaching job to take on the thankless task of serving on the BOE. I see little or no ethical problems with letting him return to the district without delay.

There can be no doubt that he has been devoted throughout his carreer to the cause of social justice and the need to address the achievement gap in this district. This should be a good opportunity for Mark to make a difference at Horace Mann and to help Superintendent Garcia advance his strategic plan.
