DCI Parent Petition

Stop picking fights with the people you want to convince. Jeez.

It's clear that a few people on here are CEOs or EDs themselves who have had adversarial relationships with their own staff at times, so they're projecting a bit......

Honestly, as a new parent to a 6th grader, this school has done a terrible job of any type of outreach to parents so we have no clue what is happening on a normal day, much less during this situation.

I didn't even realize until now that there is not a PTO. That explains something.

It's just a black box and all I know is that it's spit out several of my kids teachers this year, and others seem sub par. Not all of them but again, hard to tell since parents have very few opportunities to go into the school and hear what is happening or engage with anyone.

Neither my kid nor myself have ever met this ED.

If 94% of the people who worked for me said they don’t have confidence in me I’d be humiliated. And I’d resign.

Rosskamm is desperately clinging on because he needs this grift.

Sincerely if 94% said they didn’t have confidence in me my first question would be “I didn’t ask you”.

I’m not worried that the staff has no confidence.

Looks like Pardo has entered the chat. She is astonishingly cruel and wholly entitled. I’m surprised her first name isn’t Karen.

Definitely not Pardo. I am a boss and I sometimes have to take steps that aren’t popular.

I get why you feel that way but ultimately the boss often has to make hard decisions. As a parent I want to understand why staff voted this way. That’s the part I’m having an issue understanding.

Really? This again? Many of us are "bosses" who have to make hard decisions that are unpopular.

That's vastly different from being so bad at your job that 94% of your employees vote that they have no confidence in you.

As a point of reference, the current president has a 40% approval rating.

You keep pointing to the 94% as if that’s necessary and sufficient. To a large plurality, if not majority here, there’s not enough detail in anything provided up to this point for that to be the case.

The partisans against the head of school on here and IRL have negatively polarized other parents because their ability to argue is so low. Honestly I would be worried to see this level of argument from a high school kid, let alone an adult who passed a writing class in college.

So you're at the insults stage now? You’re the only one dismissing the staff’s vote and continually complaining there are no details despite ample evidence otherwise.

A six-page staff letter with five numbered categories of specific concerns, dates, names, and figures has been shared in this thread multiple times. 94% of the staff have confidence in the ED.

If that’s not enough detail, I’d genuinely like to know what would be. Not rhetorically. What specific question do you have that hasn’t been answered? I’ll answer it.

As for the quality of argument: attacking how people write instead of what they’re saying is what you do when you don’t have a response to what they’re saying.

The 94% isn’t the whole argument. It’s one data point in a documented case. If you’ve been in this thread and still think there’s no detail, that’s a choice, not a conclusion.

Vote of NO confidence. Obvs.
