Joseph Powers for allegations including violation of the district’s residency policy to failure to address “systemic” discrimination issues and mismanagement of misconduct reports and school financial matters.

LSC chairperson Cassie Creswell, one of the letter writers, expressed disappointment in Martinez’s response to the LSC Friday. “He is violating the CPS residency policy and has been for 14 years. And I think we provided a very strong case that he has been failing to report extremely serious misconduct and abuse against students,” Creswell said. “that not just abusers, and not just those who had committed the misconduct, but those who failed to report that misconduct will be removed from a school while investigations are ongoing. And now he’s gone back on that.
