The good news is that McCrann was reportedly fired.
Fwiw, although Hyde
seems to have taken pains to allow that impression, Hyde never fires a good kool-aid guzzler. Perhaps over administrative power struggles, yes, absolutely. But for "minor" transgressions and
faux pas such as this? Pffft.
The "guilty" party in question might have to go away and ponder great questions such as the meaning of life, the consequences of their actions and what-not, but they're always not only welcome back, but
expected back, as long as they're still drinking the kool-aid.
Given that Duncan McCrann's
salary plus benefits (not including housing, etc. which was probably free) was roughly $166,000 in 2006, I imagine that he was quite happy to continue drinking the kool-aid. I don't know if he actually even
left Hyde, but his role as "Head of School" appears to have ended in the aftermath of this incident.
I've never quite figured out whether such directives were for the supposed benefit of the alleged offender or a savvy public relations move, but I s'pose it all depends on the situation and the personnel involved.
Anyway... Duncan McCrann returned to Hyde, or just assumed other duties at Hyde, shortly after the above incident and was there until 2008 or so (the gang rape was reported to have occurred in 2006). From what I've been able to discern from my research (not having overlapped with the man), he was involved with Hyde Schools for approximately twelve years in one capacity or another, starting in 1996.
In 2008, he left to become President and COO of the Houston area location of the KIPP Charter School network (another nightmare of but slightly different hue), leaving earlier this year to form his own
EdCon firm, "specializing in school growth,
mangagement and operations." Apparently
not specializing in spelling. [Right... Rip me for my standards for what an "education professional" puts on their online resumé. I should be so honored.
