I'm sure it has nothing to do with the parent population........

You mean at the schools that need saving?

Lee taught at key for 10 years and was the AP there for a year before going to Ashlawn.

That being said the only reason the key principal left is because Duran “suspended” her for a week last year, so you can complain to him

It was longer than a week though. We don’t know why she left, she has never said anything publicly about the incident.

That’s a lot of disruption for the Ashlawn folks. I’m sorry.

It sure is. No matter if Lee was historically at Key, Ashlawn now has 3 principals in a short time.

She also speaks Spanish and has two kids in Immersion..

Probably because Ashlawn has a pretty good track record with good principals and parent satisfaction. When Barcroft or other schools need help at the admin level, that’s when they leave.

Who is the replacement

It’s posted now, so we should know in a few weeks

Weird, so they didn't have a plan? It can't be a surprise that she was seeing looked at for that position given the issues at Key.

To clarify the principal at Key resigned and took a job at another district after being hung out to dry by APS. The wording of this comment makes it seem like "issues at Key" meant she was shown the door, when in fact she left because it's difficult to work with Duran. A loss for APS and we can thank the Sup for that

I’d be careful saying things like this definitively, because she has not said publicly why she left. For all we know, she “retired” after putting in her 30 years and went to her next post willingly with no hard feelings.

The rumor is that she got a great non-principal admin job working on immersion/ESL in another district. Sounds pretty cushy.

She did not make an “announcement” but she told my spouse the reason (unsolicited) so I assume she didn’t want it a secret (and it seems like at least one other person here was told the same)
