Are any of these new announcements leaving mid year, or are they finishing this school year?

Parents - schools will be run by your fellow parents as educators and school heads leave in droves. Morale low, pay low, and so on. Students who receive help at home and have resources will be fine. Other students will not. Signed lovingly a former teacher

Is the previous principal on leave and coming back, or gone permanently?

It was announced this week he will not be coming back.

Geez. leader of Carderock Springs whomever they put in there can't keep up with the parents. Just saying.

Or the staff. They all disliked her and she knew it.

She started in July 2022.

8 principal positions currently posted. Half close in 1 week, the other half in 2 weeks.

ES - Clearspring, Woodfield, Carderock
MS - Baker, Gaithersburg, Ridgeview
HS - Blair, Damascus

If they take ~1 month for interviews and decisions, these should start being announced in April. Right now there aren't any specific positions for Assistant principal/assistant school administrator, but as principals get announced, those should open up.

I really hope Mr Bilock stays on at SSIMS. He’s great.

I think typically the principal is hired first.

Oh, that’s sad. It seems she was an excellent principal. My thoughts are with her family, friends, and the school community.
