CEO Pedro Martinez did not get into specifics while speaking before the Chicago Board of Education Wednesday, but reiterated that Muhammad “had to be pulled” from the school “for multiple reasons.”Muhammad has since been moved to the Network 16 Office and CPS assigned an administrator to oversee Lindblom until a permanent replacement can be named.
Quentin Arnold, the father of a Lindblom student, said school families have received “disturbing” emails in recent days that sought to elicit parent testimony against certain teachers at the school and alleged collusion between CPS and the Chicago Teachers Union in what the email referred to as a “public lynching” of Muhammad.
Martinez said he was “disappointed” to see public attacks, particularly against Lindblom teachers, adding that he’s shared that information with the district’s legal counsel.
