Letter: Fire the Tulsa administrators

Tulsa Beacon

Instead of closing schools and keeping with the  “children first” philosophy, let’s close the TPS administrative offices and fire the superintendent.  Leave only the principal and their staff at each school, this will reduce wasted overhead by the millions.

God bless our military and the decisive action by President Trump to rid the world of Gen.
