[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I encourage anyone considering Lafayette to take a tour, chat with the principal, talk to neighbors. I have no doubt the person posting above is a Lafayette parent, [b]and the new principal has really brought out the intense parents[/b]. But IMO she’s green but fine, and the teachers I’ve spoken with prefer her to her predecessor. I have a lot of confidence that she will grow into the role as she makes the school her own and figures out where she can be less rigid.  We’ve had a decent experience at Lafayette. I agree with the poster above. It’s very much still a public school beholden to DCPS policies. But in our experience, the kids are nice, the cohort is high-performing, and we’ve had some fantastic teachers. We (and many others) just ignore the whiny parents. Hopefully the principal does too.[/quote]

The old principal really brought out the intense parents, too. At what point do people realize that the intense parents are the problem and not the principal?[/quote]

I suppose that’s true. But the complaining this year is much worse and about stupider stuff (ie., “she won’t break the rules for me like Dr. B did”). [/quote]
