[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I saw the post earlier in the year about her leaving her current post.  Now  we know she landed at TEC does anyone want to share a bit more about your specific likes or concerns for those of us up here in Takoma.[/quote]

Ooo boy you should search any recent Watkins/Peabody thread - it’s a lot to unpack

My two cents - she is unqualified, all talk, has no business being a principal and I can’t believe that DCPS stuck her somewhere else after asking her to leave Watkins.  She destroyed our school and it will take us years to recover.

I really hope she doesn’t do the same to you for the sake of the students there  or that you are able to get her out faster than we did.

Good Luck![/quote]

She took the school's Google parent list serve, forwarded several chains to Perry Stein/Washington Post, and then cooperated with an article that divided the 
community, of which she was still the principal.
Need I say more?  Who does that?  [/quote]

Yeah, I have no tie to this school nor know much about it but that’s totally nuts. Thinking about our school’s various contentious listserv discussions over the years, this seems like pretty much the worst thing a principal could do. Clearly she does not in any way respect a good portion of her school’s parents. I just don’t think it’s ok to run a school while harboring such bitterness. We even had a principal who might have felt this way but I can’t imagine her airing that to the media of all places? It’s just bizarre. Good luck TEC. [/quote]
