Lauderdale County's Gary Dan Williams says transferring staff to an alternative school is a big demotion. If true, Gale Satchel is right that new Colbert school superintendent Chris Hand wants to demote her.
What does Hand say? "It strictly has to do with having her working for the board in a position where she is qualified, where she does hold the background knowledge and the skills..."
Did everyone catch that? Hand thinks Mrs. Satchel has been working 17 years as federal programs coordinator, but is unqualified? Now he wants to send her off to the hell that's alternative school?
