Navy Elementary - Principal Resignation

Anonymous wrote:For those wondering why the principal resigned, let’s clear things up. He wasn’t driven out by parents; he was forced out by the county after numerous complaints from both parents and staff about his incompetence. If anyone still believes he was a good principal, it’s probably because your child hasn’t had any issues that required you to contact the admin. Those of us who’ve had to deal with him firsthand know just how ineffective and dishonest he was.

Last year, when concerns were raised about his leadership, many of you defended him. Now, with the mass exodus of teachers and your kids feeling the effects, you’re seeing what some tried to warned about. The teachers left because they weren’t supported and were treated poorly.

And let’s not forget how some of you attacked “the sub” for passing around the letter about the principal. She was trying to shine a light on what was really going on, and she was right. Thank you, SUB, for having the courage to speak up when others stayed quiet.

Now, Navy’s stuck with a revolving door of unqualified replacements and no principal in sight. This is what happens when someone unfit for the job is allowed to run the school. Maybe if more people had listened last year, Navy wouldn’t be in this mess.

Hopefully, this serves as a wake-up call. Our kids deserve better.


You know that's the same thing, right?

Funny, I recall someone posting here that the teachers actually left because of parents and this board. No once could explore any concrete reasons the staff didn’t like him. In fact, I even recall a posting saying he wasn’t a bad guy and wasn’t treating his staff poorly - he just wasn’t leading.

I imagine that he wasn't good at protecting the teachers from the parents.

This is too much for me. I am aware of Navy drama last year but still chose to send my 3rd grader to Navy AAP, hoping things will calm down. With the new principal leaving, I don't see this thing (whatever it is) blowing over soon and probably we'll go back to crossfield next year after the construction is over.

Excuse me, how about if the original principal didn’t drive drunk into a house and flee the scene, we wouldn’t be in this mess. Please put blame where it really belongs.

I wouldn't say unfit, just not the right fit. He was qualified, something just wasn't vibing with him and the teachers so many left at the end of last year and many seem unhappy again with admin this year.

As desperate as some former staff members and parents with personal issues are to see Navy fail…the vast majority of parents and students at Navy are perfectly happy with the school. Congrats though to you former staff members and parents on driving a perfectly capable person out of his job because you didn’t “vibe”. Let’s be clear that this is not what the majority of the school wanted.
