BALTIMORE 鈥 Baltimore County Schools Superintendent Darryl Williams is defending his record after five members of the County Council called for a search to replace him.
The Baltimore Sun reports that Williams sent a letter to the council Saturday covering how he has handled a variety of issues, including school safety, a bus driver shortage and staff morale.
The letter was in response to a call by five of the council鈥檚 seven members for the school board to conduct a superintendent search before they consider renewing Williams鈥 contract.
The council members wrote last week that there is 鈥渘o accountability鈥 for the school system鈥檚 performance.
In a statement to the news media Saturday, Williams said the council鈥檚 letter contained numerous inaccuracies.
