Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS)
Yes exactly and that's not his job, so who cares? |
Easier to making changes if you are liked by parent. Not sure what the vision for Navy is. |
+1 this exactly Building a rapport with parents (and teachers) is part of being a principal. It’s what makes a great principal. It’s why everyone liked Coch - he was easy to talk to. The new principal can’t even make eye contract. |

The parents are not his boss...I know crazy concept. |
LOL everyone in FCPS laughs at this. You sound really dumb. |
There are Navy parents who think the teachers, staff, and even the superintendent work for them because they pay taxes. It’s embarrassing. News flash: no one cares that you pay taxes and that you are used to getting what you want because you have money. You’re not entitled to the private school experience at a public school. Start writing those tuition checks if you want to treat the people who work with your child(ren) this way. |

ORG chart of Fairfax. We the residents are on top. The School System exists to serve the residents to the best usage of its resources. Surely, we can’t get everything we ask for, but our collective opinions should be the biggest weight in deciding what is done. |
We the school staff could care less. |
Boss? No. Stakeholder? Yes. Parent involvement very high at Navy School. |
You vote and can share your input with the school board. That is the extent of your role as “boss” of the schools. It’s crazy how people can say with a straight face that they “pay your salaries.” - not a teacher. |
Fixed that for you. I’m a Navy parent and I’ve seen how incredibly rude some parents are when asking questions of the superintendent and the new principal at meetings. Multiple people in our neighborhood who work for FCPS said the new principal’s biggest challenge would be dealing with the parents when they heard about the hire. |
Where do teacher salary come from? Tax payer. So the tax payer do pay the salary, but teacher not directly accountable to the tax payer. It no different that customer of company and worker salary. Customer always right? |
What wrong with want high standard? Americans very medicore satisfaction. |
Your reasoning and your writing are very poor. Schools are not a business. You fund government with your taxes but you do not supervise government employees employees. |
