I want to interview Genithia Hudley-Hayes. She is the Education Deputy that oversees The Los Angeles County Board of Education and Countywide education policy issues fore the 3rd District. Prior to joining the 3rd District staff, she served as a member and president of the Los Angeles Fire Commission, and as a member and President of the LAUSD Board of Education. She was appointed as Special Trustee to the Compton Community College District and is a mediator for the State of CA. Her career spans work as a teacher and a curriculum specialist with LAUSD, principal of Holy Nativity Episcopal Day School and Executive Director/Executive Vice President of SCLC/MLKLA. She received a B.A. from Texas College and an M.Ed from Pepperdine University.
Questions:
1) How would you define underprivileged
2) Where do we see that term introduced for students?
3) Of what you've seen through all of your work experience, especially in LAUSD, why do some kids make it through staying in school, despite difficulties, and go to college and some do not?
4) For the kids who have the drive to do well or get to college, where does the motivation come from?
6) How or where do you think underprivileged kids can be most helped? What is the number one factor in ensuring that an underprivileged youth is successful? Or, are there many factors that contribute, not just one?
7) Because of what you know from your experience with LAUSD and seeing kids that come from low-income backgrounds , do you think that the government provides enough support for kids?
5) From what you've seen, does high school sufficiently prepare a student for college?
6) How or where do you think underprivileged kids can be most helped? What is the number one factor in ensuring that an underprivileged youth is successful? Or, are there many factors that contribute, not just one?
8) Is college the best route for an underprivileged youth to break the poverty cycle? or Are there those outliers who don’t graduate high school, who don’t go to college, but are still successful? or Is college the best way to get out of poverty?
9) To sum up everything that you have said, What is the most effective support system for an underprivileged youth to break the poverty cycle?
10) I read that you found it extremely difficult to change some things in the school district? Why is is so hard to implement school reform?
