It sounds like this principal flirted with some of the mommas pretty heavily.

He can't the reputation is ruined and what kind of message does it send to impressionable 5th and 6th graders who will find out. I hope he gets help and he will get a new chance somewhere else.

I don't think he should return to his job but I don't know how many parents have told their child that their Principal is gone because he was driving drunk and crashed into a house. Honestly, I am not sure that my fifth grader would realize he had a new Principal if his current Principal was replaced. I don't know that he would notice. The kdis are notlikely to know the Principal is gone. If they do notice, you can say that he left for personal reasons. There is no need to tell them that he was arrested for driving drunk.

Parents will know, and that is a different story, but the kids could probably care less.

Kids have mouths. Even the kids that probably could care less will have heard it by now.

It didn't happen to HIM it happened because of HIS actions. Lets stop thinking he's a victim in this. No one is attacking Navy, because of HIS actions Navy is in the news and everyone is talking about the school. I see a theme here, HE is the problem not people expressing their opinions.

+1. HIS actions have consequences. Imagine the Ppal. under the influence during school hours.

It also could be because he HELPED their KIDS. I am a mom whose kid goes to Navy. To me, he was a great principal because he always was immediately responsive to any concerns and not because he flirted. Geez. Get your heads out of the gutter, people.

Or maybe the mommies had drinks with him on his birthday?

Or maybe he was actually a good principal who made our kids’ school experience a good one.

I’m one of the PPs who said I don’t think he should come back to Navy. I’m not defending his actions. But he was a good principal and your statement is just ridiculous.

The student's know and miss him. They know because he knew each student by name and greeted him. He was kind, sensitive , a daily pressence in the lives of students. I have told my students the details. They are sad, compassionate and dissapointed that he left the scene. This has led to wonderful conversation that alcoholism is a disease no different than cancer or diabetes and that we pray that he gets well. Although we recognize why remaining Principal may not e appropriate at present we welcome him back to our lives as an educator when he is well.

You lied to your children and told them he is an alcoholic? Wow. I would have had a conversation with my children about someone making bad decisions and choices and the consequences that something like that can lead to. That seems a little more appropriate than making things up like you did.

If it talks like a duck and walks like a duck…it probably is a duck.

There’s a select group that have his ear of course. They want him back.

And isn’t he still in jail?

I don’t think so.

Also, check out Melissa Tochterman. She was caught shoplifting at the local Target and is now at Herndon High I believe.

Shoplifting is not even in the same ballpark as DUI crash as far as offenses go.

The few times I have had to get in touch with him, he has always been very responsive. He also says hi to everybody!

I don't know the guy, but people (*not pejoratively tetmed "mommies") can have varying opinions about the proper outcome; and some can understand that a person can have mant positive qualities even if he made a big, embarrassing mistake. Some people are willing to look at the balance of a person's character, history, and actions, as well as the possibility for recovery and restitution...and say that it's possible that he could come back to his job in some form.
