What exactly is cyber bullying in this thread?

Nothing. Everything is absolutely normal, balanced and fair. Especially since no one is disclosing their identities.

Seriously, give an example of something that was said that wasn't based on fact?

“Penny is a garbage human being.” Is that a fact?

Having a psychologist that engaged in misconduct with a patient is unacceptable

To clarify, this is about Michael Thompson right? Not a Holton employee?

Well, I think we’ve thoroughly covered every angle of this at this point. Time to put this thread to rest before it turns into another never-ending debate. Honestly, I think ChatGPT had more fun with this counter-argument than anyone else. It might need a nap after all that back-and-forth.

Moderator, feel free to step in and lock this one before we spiral even further!

^^^ Good work, crisis comms, put our tuition money to good use.

I'm pretty sure the crisis comms firm they're using is also the one that wrote deragatoty things about the children of politicians that attended independent Schools

If you treat your employees like garbage, you are not a good person. Next?

That is an opinion, not a fact.

Next.

Yes, look this guy up. Total fraud.

Yes, also resign. That would be even a better use of the tuition.

I think the only thing I would blame penny is not firing teachers that express themselves in this way.

Yikes thought it was just the board that hated Penny, but I just met a random alumni at an event who had not so nice things to say about her. Something is going on at this school and I’m not sure what it is, but I’m glad we declined our acceptance. Really loved the school, but we’ve been through schools with toxic administrators before and know all too well how it trickles down into every fabric of the school.

There's a simple solution, when that's the case. ....

The only thing for certain is that you a your post are toxic, commenting in a school where you are not involved at all.

Yes, block the thread to prevent idiotic comments from bitter teachers.

There’s an easy fix:

Penny needs to begin the year by acknowledging the elephant in the room: Her leadership has been a source of division and anger. She needs to show humility and grace and listen to the concerns among those she serves: the teachers.

This is NOT to say she should endure an endless struggle session filled with bitterness and resentment. Teachers need to be constructive and not petty. They need to think about the students they serve and the mission they abide to uphold.

Both sides need to cool down the rhetoric and genuinely listen to one another. Firing teachers is not a solution. Demanding Penny’s resignation is not the solution. Rational minds among professionals who place children first can figure this out.

Reinstate the faculty staff committee

Reinstate annual feedback/evaluation for administrators

Reinstate senior exit interviews

Require more close oversight by the board of Penny's decisions and interactions with faculty and staff

This situation already feels like it’s reached a point of no return. At one of the parent sessions, the tension from certain parents was immediately palpable. The animosity in the room was so strong that it created an awkward, almost hostile atmosphere.

Comments often carried undertones of resentment, making it clear that trust has broken down.

Meaningful dialogue seemed impossible, and rational discussions are unlikely to occur.

Tensions about what?

Yes, sure and appoint you as HoS as clearly you are more qualified than penny.
