[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pretty lame to announce the retirement effective this Friday.  Makes you wonder why not close out the year which is weeks away.  Presumably more to the story.[/quote]

Actually, it is an excellent time. It gives the search for a new Principal a chance to start before school ends.  It gets them beyond the SOL testing for this year.  It gives a start to the hiring for next year.  [/quote]

And that search couldn't be carried out while he remains in the position to help with the selection?  Seems he would have valuable input in helping identify his successor.   A 3 day advance notice seems questionable after 18 years.[/quote]Principals do not do that.  They do not have direct input.  Teachers, higher ups and to some extent the parents are part of the search process not the previous Principal.

Maybe he intended to stick around but something pushed him over the edge and he was done. [/quote]
Rumor troll?[/quote]

Not really.  I was thinking personal health, health of a close family member, not being able to find qualified teachers who can't afford to live anywhere near the school, traffic.......[/quote]
