“You mean to tell me that out of the entire State of Alabama, you couldn’t find a single applicant suitable for an interview?” ~Councilor Sheila Tyson
Sheila Tyson, Birmingham City (District 6) Councilor, was praised during the event for the above comment provided during the public discussion. The comment eventually became the sound bite for a number of media outlet. Tyson’s comments made a number of people question whether or not the hiring process was fair to local applicants.
Birmingham AFT local president Richard Franklin echoed Tyson’s concerns by sharing that Birmingham City Schools needs to select a candidate that truly understand the education laws in Alabama. Franklin cited two of the previous Superintendents Dr. Gacutan and Dr. Witherspoon to prove how detrimental it could be to hire another Superintendent who doesn’t understand Alabama laws.
The public discussion made local headlines as a number of community members expressed their dislike of the process used by Birmingham City Schools to select the five finalist for Superintendent.

Plate 41: Typical soil profile and associated landscape for the Al Usb series (soil AD240).
Taxonomic classification: Lithic Torriorthents, sandy-skeletal, mixed, hyperthermic
The Al Usb series is a shallow sandy soil overlying bedrock (typically calcareous sandstone) and contain large amounts of gravel material. The soils are typically moderately well to excessively drained. They occur on gentle slopes within gently undulating to undulating deflation plains. They are formed from alluvial sediments derived from nearby mountains.
These soils are used for rangeland grazing of camels though vegetation cover is frequently less than 5% and often absent. The common vegetation species recorded include Haloxylon salicornicum and Rhazya stricta together with Zygophyllum spp.
This soil is common in western parts of the Ghayathi sub-area and parts of the deflation plains within the Madinat Zayed sub-area.
The main feature of this soil are the shallow depth (<50cm) to a lithic contact and the high proportion of gravels within the soil overlying the hardpan. The soil material above the hardpan is sandy. The shallow depth to the hardpan layer is the main restriction for this soil. The sandy nature of the soil, together with the high gravel content, also suggests low nutrient storage and moisture holding capacity. This soil is considered unsuitable for irrigated agriculture.
