Algiers Public Charter Schools System Votes Out First CEO

http://www.wwltv.com/local/stories/wwl042408tpriedlinger.98823223.html

Following an emotional meeting last week, the Algiers Charter Schools Association in New Orleans voted 4-3 to remove Brian Riedlinger from his position as CEO of the public charter school system. The board had been in negotiations with Riedlinger and had requested that he resign from his other job to spend full time with the school system. Riedlinger reportedly agreed to resign from that post, but he was still voted out as CEO. Riedlinger can stay on until April 2009, but his contract will end at that time. The decision drew an angry response from parents and others at the meeting.
