Me too!

Look up Moses and bare feet and being grounded with God. It is an optional tradition. US Graduation ceremony was beautiful and meaningful.

I figured it was something like that, I'm trying to figure out why it needed to be "nuanced".

I didnt know this was an SSFS tradition. I saw RG go barefoot, the story he told was that this was something he did because he felt he was entering sacred ground. He never told the story as it being an SSFS tradition, but one that he did. I also never saw other teachers go barefoot either. I always thought this was just something he started doing at this school.

I think you must not know him, and saw you're not used to his "big fluff" talking style. Those of us subjected to his messages for these years just know his BS when we read it.

I thought he said it was a tradition. That’s interesting that he started it.

I saw him barefoot at SAES. Is that sacred ground too?

Given that in his mind the world starts and ends with him, something he started would be the definition of a “cherished tradition”.

For example “ including the Dr. Rodney Glasgow Endowed Fund for Equity, Justice, and Belonging, established this Spring on my 45th birthday…” doesn’t seem bad unless you’ve been subjected to his birthday being celebrated on campus every year like a national holiday. We get it, your birthday is in March!

Must have been a cherished SAES tradition 😉

Countless children were irrevocably damaged by his race baiting, hyperbolic, self absorbed, unprofessional behavior. Doc Glasgow laughed all the way to the bank and likely will continue to get six figure consulting gigs facilitated by impotent boards of trustees and National Association of Independent Schools.

Get every Glasgow Group consultant out of your schools.

(Same as Glenn Singleton and his poisonous Courageous Conversation (Trademark).)

Do your homework. These people hate you and your children but love your money.

This is why some parents at SSFS are uneasy about Rodney’s departure. You are not helping SSFS.

Since when are we trying "help" a school (brick and mortar) and not OUR OWN CHILDREN???? It is exactly this kind of thinking that allows NAIS and its henchmen frauds like Rodney Glasgow and Carney Sandoe (and every other vendor and consultant connected to 'accreditation'..which incidentally has absolutely nothing to do with academic quality of a school) to infiltrate our institutions where we pay for our children to learn with their self serving greedy ideology.

SSFS is not social club.

1970s alumni here - We did not graduate in barefeet. Shoes were required for graduation and we were the height of the "hippie" years. We were the first graduating class where the girls did not have to wear white dresses but our dresses did have to be pre-approved.

Same. The letter is fine. Nothing wrong with it.

Cannot speak for his tenure at the school…

he takes off his shoes and socks during all his PAID speeches. My son told me when he spoke at his school (mentioned a freak giving a dumb speech which was basically a comedy routine, except he didn't realize he was the joke")...oh and one of his 'principle consultants' was the Associate Head of School for DEI (of course now rebranded to 'Community Participation and Belonging" or some such meaningless word salad title that pays $350,000 a year to an otherwise unemployable hack.

This is depressing. Our children were forced to look up to this guy. "9/11 and 11/9" . The trustees have a whole lot to answer for... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4WssvNf6ks&t=2349s
