Choosing A New Superintendent

SD #23 SUPERINTENDENT RUBADEAU TO RETIRE IN 2006
The committee that chose the current School District #23 Superintendent Rubadeau made a bad choice. Click on the following link to read about Rubadeau's serious core character flaws that the selection committee failed to uncover before it decided to give Rubadeau the Superintendent's job.
Rubadea's bad attitude & manipulation

The committee that selects the new superintendent needs to put candidates through complete psychological tests to ensure that another mistake like Rubadeau is not made. This community needs a Superintendent with ethics, morals & one who sets a good example for students in proper dress & good grooming rather than one who.....
looks like a bum most of the time.

Parents have gone on radio talk shows to call Superintendent Rubadeau a liar. SD #23 had been inflating the number of students riding buses. The Province of BC gave SD #23 $400,000 that SD #23 was not entitled. As a result many children were then forced to walk to school on busy dangerous roadways that had no sidewalks. Busing Fiasco

Rubadeau closed many community schools ignoring parent's alternatives to keep those schools open, (click on Fight) then SD#23 turned around and criticized parents for not responding to a need for ideas on how to reduce costs. Meanwhile the closed schools have caused overcrowding, resulting in the need to place students in portable classrooms. Click on Bad Decision Students Suffer

Now School District #23 has a surplus of money while other School Districts that kept their community schools open are doing well with more schools & less students than SD #23 while SD #23 has to build costly additions. It has been reported that estimated construction cost have doubled. Rubadeau has made costly mistakes closing schools & lacked foresight which will affect students adversely for years.
Rubadeau's SD #23 has 22,000 students & 41 schools
While Victoria's SD has 20,000 students & 58 schools

He then decides to retire rather than deal with the aftermath of his bad decisions.
