Former Los Angeles schools chief John Deasy has accepted a consulting
job as “superintendent in residence” for a training and coaching program
funded by local philanthropist Eli Broad.
Deasy, 54, resigned
under pressure last October after leading the nation’s second-largest
school system for three and a half years...
...Under Deasy, L.A. Unified continued an incremental rise in student
achievement, even during a period of deep budget cuts. But his last year
was marred by two troubled technology projects: A $1.3-billion effort
to provide iPads to all students stalled and eventually led to an FBI
investigation, and a new student records system malfunctioned this fall,
putting students at risk of failing to obtain graduation and college
admission records...
