[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just saw an announcement for my daughter’s elementary school… LCPS just hired us a principal with ZERO elementary teaching experience and a college degree from a place I’ve literally never heard of in my life. He was a middle school PE teacher for a few years. WOW. As a parent and a former teacher, I thought that the principal was supposed to be the instructional leader and be able to speak with experience to teaching students how to read and perform academically at high levels. It is hard to have confidence in LCPS’s pool of leadership candidates ATM and I am really bummed by this announcement… and feel for the teaching staff. [/quote] OH FFS you are the worst kind of parent. Jesus Christ, Almighty.[/quote] No she isn't. This is a reasonable concern. If you have a child with an IEP who attends a school in LCPS, you get to know the vice principals well since they attend all the meetings. They work their butts off and are responsible for more than most people realize. In my child's time in LCPS I knew several who were trying to move up and they had to wait for a very long time. These were some of the best people I met in the school system. One of them is still a vp and should have been made principal long ago. I don't understand at all how experience as a pe teacher qualifies. I'd bet there are at least 5 better qualified, better prepared more capable vps who just got passed over. I never met a pe teacher in Loudoun who should be a principal.[/quote] It is NOT a valid concern. At all. OP’s opinions on this matter are 100% invalid. The person hasn’t even been in the job a week and OP has already concluded the principal will be a failure. Because why? Because of teaching PE? Sit down. She is Exhibit 1 of bad parents.[/quote] Take your fascist yelling somewhere else. I can yell too. IT IS A VALID CONCERN. It is interesting how you are forcefully trying to shut down a conversation about this. You sound like some kind of nut job fascist. She didn't say they'd be a failure but your denial that this person doesn't have experience necessary to take this job are ridiculous. You clearly don't know much about the school system and this is situation is very unusual. [/quote] Darling, I have put two kids through LCPS. You, on the other hand, seem like a blathering idiot. You really should not use words like “fascist” that you clearly don’t understand. OP is not valid, full stop. Her opinions are stupid and reactionary and you are a class A MORON for suggesting otherwise.[/quote]
