I love the kids at work. They make me smile and laugh everyday. Sometimes they make me want to pull out my hair, but in a good way… If that makes any sense.

Michelle Rhee Resigns from the DC School District

The lighting rod Michelle Rhee, the now former D.C. schools chancellor, resigned suddenly from her post.  She had been an agent of change who disrupted the status quo of the failing D.C. school districts.  She brought great rigor and dramatic changes that rocked the system and also created a few enemies along the way.

According to Newsweek, speculation was widespread that Fenty’s outing meant the end of Rhee’s three-year tenure.  At a news conference Wednesday, Rhee delivered her resignation speech, which she also posted online on her blog. Rhee spoke of her resignation as a mutual decision she made with Mayor-elect Gray.

“I’ve put my blood, sweat and tears into the children of the District for the last three and a half years and have completely enjoyed every moment of it. I’m honored and humbled for the opportunity to have served these very deserving young people. The thought of not being in this role anymore is heartbreaking, to put it mildly, but it’s right for the school system and right for the children.”

For the full resignation statement, go to Michelle’s blog.
