Superintendent Monique Felder is embroiled in a scandal in her previous school system and dodging questions from the North Carolina media while absent from this week's Montgomery County Board of Education meeting.
June 7, 2021, Orange County Superintendent Monique Felder announces that Orange County Board of Education member Jennifer Moore obtained her Ph.D. in Business Administration on June 5, 2021, from Bellevue University (no location, there are two). Felder announced Moore's dissertation as, "Implementing Needs Assessment and Task Analysis in North Carolina Public Schools."
This year, Orange County Board of Education member Jennifer Moore was running to be re-elected to her seat and a run-off election for that seat is to be held May 14, 2024.
The runoff election was announced March 15, 2024.
On March 16, 2024, Superintendent Monique Felder wrote a letter endorsing Orange County Board of Education member Jennifer Moore. The letter was posted on the candidate's website.
April 19, 2024, Orange County Board of Education candidate resigns from seat.
Moore was also reportedly facing questions about her doctoral degree from Bellevue University. Neither Bellevue University in Nebraska nor Bellevue College in Washington state have a record of Moore attending or earning a doctorate, according to the News & Observer’s report.
April 19, 2024, News & Observer:
Felder also did not return a phone call seeking more information about Moore’s doctorate.
April 23, 2024, Orange County Board of Education candidate Jennifer Moore posted a letter to her campaign website announcing she was withdrawing from the race and admitting that she did not have a Ph.D.
Montgomery County Board of Education President Karla Silvestre opened the April 25, 2024, Board of Education meeting by introducing Henry Johnson, MCPS Chief of Staff, who was sitting in the superintendent's chair. No explanation was given for why the MCPS Chief of Staff was in the place of the superintendent.
Superintendent Monique Felder put someone in charge of the school system during her absence that does not run the school system on a daily basis. Henry Johnson is not the Deputy Superintendent nor is he the Chief Operating Officer.
Annnnnnnd..... we are off...... the corruption continues as the old buddy network continues to recycle its cast of useless characters in and out of positions of power, further depriving Montgomery children of any sort of stable education. The games continue....
