I am happy to write her a letter of reference for that central office job.

+1! Actually, I am quite sure a petition letter signed by many parents, teachers, administrators, and students could be had to support her move to the central office. But then what havoc and distrust would she wreak there?

Didn’t something like that happened at Taylor?

Yes, we were able to get rid of a terrible principal after a year. The next one left by choice. I do think we finally got a winner on the third try.

Being a school principal - much like being a teacher, but in a different way - is a thankless and nearly impossible job.

Maybe but some people should not be principals, or even work with children.

Is there an update? I love reading about this horrible person's fall. She doesn't GAF about kids and should be a walmart greeter, given her intellect.

That's quite a bit of an obnoxious statement. And, if someone's unhappy with a principal, you've got to speak up. Oakridge parents tried and created quite a stir two years ago. And, the principal is still there...

When this person was at the place right before, I did file a complaint with the admin so was shocked to see this happen. But. maybe she got so many complaints she can't go to central office?

I’m the PP quoted. Agree 1,000%.

How does one file a complaint?

Not sure if there's a form. But emails I'm sure work and there's a Let's Talk function on the aps website.

Email or the Let's talk function on the APS website.

ok when you said you filed a complaint, it sounded like some official process, not just sending an email

I'm the poster who "filed a complaint". My kid has an IEP which comes with process and protections. Since I had trouble with the principal, I contacted the central office and asked that they not come to an IEP meeting. The person subject to this thread showed up and threatened me. After that meeting, I re-contacted my central office contacts and shared the experience. Since there was a central office person in the room when it happened, it was collaborated. Didn't stop her from ascending...but that's an APS problem, not a me problem.

So what (if anything) was the result of your complaint?

Actually, several administrators had major issues at their schools and were promoted to central office the following school year. They don’t get demoted. They get promoted.
