by a vast number of people.”

During his keynote address 

to the conference Wednesday 
evening, Detroit Mayor Mike 
Duggan also outlined profound 
problems 
in 
Detroit 
Public 

Schools and hailed the bill as 
being the best solution available 
to help the district. He also noted 
how the emergency managers 
of the district appointed by the 
state since 2009 have not been 
successful.

“The structure has no chance; 

it doesn’t matter who you bring 
in,” Duggan said. “(The state 
has) run the system for seven 
years because they said the 
school board couldn’t do it, and 
they’ve run a deficit every year.”

Duggan 
also 
hailed 

Washington D.C. as a model 
district in which a system similar 
to the D.E.C. has worked. He said 
Washington D.C. schools went 
from being the worst district 
in reading proficiency in 2007 
to among the highest reading 
proficiency of any urban school 
district in America, and he 
hopes the same transformation 
happens in Detroit.

“Anybody 
who 
can 
look 

and say we should defend the 
existing system, to me, there’s 
something they are not paying 
attention to,” Duggan said.

Quisenberry said the proposed 

bill falls short, however, as a 
means of recruiting new teaching 
talent and fixing the system 
already in place. He applauded 
school systems in Colorado and 
Massachusetts for having high 
standards for educators, and 

stressed that now is the time for 
educators in Michigan to strive 
to meet their models.

“It’s 
about 
increasing 

standards and expectations for 
all of our schools,” Quisenberry 
said. “I would love this crowd, 
this community, this chamber, 
the people in this organization 
standing up to Lansing and 
saying now is the time to have 
real standards and consistency.”

Though 
Rakolta 
and 

Quisenberry agreed that deficit 
spending in the district needs 
to be controlled, Rakolta stated 
that without the passing of the 
senate bill, there will be more 
losses incurred in the school 
system.

“We have had this humongous 

deficit spending, and I submit 
that it will continue into the 
future 
regardless 
of 
what 

happens in Lansing this week or 
next,” Rakolta said.

Tonya Allen, president and 

CEO of The Skillman Foundation 
— 
an 
organization 
helping 

students graduate from high 
school and prepare for college 
and careers — highlighted the 
importance of pushing beyond 
personal perspectives in order to 
fix the root of the problem.

“At some point or another, we 

have to make a decision to take 
away the things that don’t work 
and add things that do work,” 
Allen said. “The status quo is not 
going to improve the quality of 
schools for children.”

The panelists agreed that the 

most important factor moving 
forward is for the people of 
Detroit to be involved for any 
future system to work.

“What 
will 
happen 
after 

legislation will define who we 
are,” Quisenberry said.

In an interview with the Daily, 

Kildee said he has started an 
online petition and is calling 
Michiganders who care about 
equality to speak out against this 
bill.

“It makes no sense ... it’s like 

they are searching for a way 
to pander to the far right by 
creating a problem that doesn’t 
exist,” Kildee said. “There is 
no rational law to discriminate 
against LGBT people. It’s an 
obvious political pander, and it’s 
destructive.”

State Rep. Jeff Irwin (D–Ann 

Arbor) agreed that this is political 
pandering attempting to appeal 
to 
extreme 
and-or 
religious 

conservatives. However, he is 
confident that the bill will never 
be put to a vote.

“I don’t think it will come to 

a vote because the leadership 
understands that it’s bad for the 
state and for them politically,” 
Irwin said. “People realize that 
this whole idea that young men 
are going to try and switch 
their gender to try and invade a 
woman’s locker room is just not 
realistic. It’s a fine soundbite, 
but when you start to think 
about it, nobody is going to do 
that because of the severe social 
stigma that they would receive.”
