Rhee to provice advice, but no permanent commitment, to Fla. governor

Michelle Rhee will have an “overall 30,000-feet advisory role” over the 17 other members of the Republican Florida governor’s Education Transition team, who will do more day-to-day work, a spokesman said.

The former D.C. schools chancellor has no immediate plans to come to Florida for her “strictly advisory role,” which is unpaid, and “could go either way” in terms of joining Governor-elect Rick Scott’s staff, Scott spokesman Trey Stapleton said Friday.
