五角大楼学校系统负责人即将离职。五角大楼学校系统负责人保罗·克劳夫特（Paul Craft）将于本月底辞职——距离他被选为该机构负责人尚不足八个月。一名国防部门官员周四向《国会山报》证实了这一消息。© 查克·伯顿，美联社 该官员表示，克劳夫特于三月初接任国防部教育活动办公室（DoDEA）负责人一职，他“领导了该机构的改革工作”，以“支持我们的军人子女和家庭”。
Pentagon's school system director stepping down The director of the Pentagon's school system, Paul Craft, is resigning at the end of this month — less than eight months after being selected to lead the agency, a Defense official confirmed to The Hill Thursday. © Chuck Burton, Associated Press The official said Craft, who stepped into the Department of Defense Education Activity's (DoDEA) director role in early March, "led efforts to reform" the agency in "support of our military children and families." "Under his leadership, the DoWEA sharpened its focus on the fundamentals: strong classrooms, well-prepared teachers, transparent engagement with parents, and high academic standards for our military-connected students around the world," the official said in a statement.
该官员在一份声明中称：“在他的领导下，DoDEA更加专注于核心要素：优质的课堂、训练有素的教师、与家长的透明沟通，以及为全球军人相关学生设定高标准学业要求。”他还表示：“他主导了对DoDEA《持续改进蓝图》的全面更新，并帮助该组织重新聚焦其服务对象——我们的学生、家长、教育工作者和军人家庭。” 该官员并未透露为何克劳夫特会在3月9日接任DoDEA负责人后选择离职。
"He led a comprehensive update to the DoWEA Blueprint for Continuous Improvement and helped realign the organization around the people it exists to serve: our students, parents, educators and military families." The official did not share why Craft, who began leading the DoDEA March 9, is stepping down.
该机构尚未回应《国会山报》的置评请求。 DoDEA是一个教育体系，在11个国家、7个州和2个美国领土内运营着160所学校，为超过6.7万名美国军事人员和文职人员的受抚养子女提供教育。克劳夫特是俄亥俄州陆军国民警卫队的一名退役上校，他在贝丝·斯卡维诺-纳瓦埃斯（Beth Schiavino-Narvaez）于三月初离职后被选中接任。
The agency did not respond to The Hill's request for comment. DoDEA is an education system that operates 160 schools in 11 countries, seven states and two U.S. territories for over 67,000 dependent children of U.S. military personnel and civilian staff. Craft, a retired colonel in the Ohio Army National Guard, was picked after Beth Schiavino-Narvaez stepped down in early March.
五角大楼当时并未说明斯卡维诺-纳瓦埃斯离职的原因。在斯卡维诺-纳瓦埃斯之前，DoDEA由退役上校托马斯·布雷迪（Thomas Brady）于2014年至2024年期间领导。五角大楼的官员表示：“克劳夫特的工作减少了不必要的官僚程序，并最大限度地优化了资源向地方学校社区的分配。在任期间，他专注于支持军人家庭，并认识到家庭福祉与部队战备之间的紧密联系。”
The Pentagon did not say at the time why Schiavino-Narvaez left the post. Before Schiavino-Narvaez, the DoDEA was led by Thomas Brady, a retired colonel, from 2014 to 2024. "Craft’s work reduced unnecessary bureaucracy and maximize resource delivery to local school communities. During his tenure, Craft focused on supporting military families, recognizing the connection between family well-being and force readiness," the Pentagon official said.
“他知道，当父母信任孩子所接受的教育时，他们就能专注于自己的任务。”这位官员表示，五角大楼对克拉夫特为“我们的军人家庭”所做的服务“心存感激”，并祝愿他和家人在人生的下一篇章一切顺利。
"He understood that when parents trust the education their children receive, they can remain focused on their mission." The official said the Pentagon is "grateful" for Craft's service to "our military families and wishes him and his family well in their next chapter."
