And Superintendent of Schools Bobbie J. D'Alessandro has said she sees "serious differences" between herself and the committee.
Last night, on the eve of the school committee meeting, the Cambridge City Council joined the fray, passing a resolution urging the school committee not to "sacrifice" the high school redesign that Evans engineered last year.
"I'm very concerned that Wednesday morning, we may have no superintendent and no principal," said counsellor Timothy J. Toomey. "I will not be silent when I see my constituents getting shafted by school committee members."
'Dirty Deeds'
Committee member Alfred B. Fantini, who joined Joseph G. Grassi and Galluccio in supporting the administration's proposal to keep the school selection process random, said parental choice at CRLS is a decision for Evans and D'Alessandro to make, not a policy question for the school committee to question.
"Policy is being used as a cover to do their dirty deeds," Fantini said.
Fantini said he thinks the school committee is using his issue to undermine decisions of the highschool administrators.
