[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This entire situation just makes me sad for everyone involved (and for many of the comments on this thread).

I know this principal and had many conversations with him when my child was at Barnsley. I am not specifically a fan or a critic, just experienced him as someone trying to do his job. I didn't always agree with his takes and would say [b]he had an unrealistic expectation that kids would have positive behaviors and compliance at all times, which is just not realistic[/b]. But he could also be reasoned with.

Whatever happened I can say he didn't have a record of physical interactions with children so I can imagine he lost his temper and now is paying the consequences. That is something I can imagine happening to many people.

I am sad for the kid who experienced that from a trusted adult, for the kids who were witnesses, and for that school community.

It's just all so unfortunate.[/quote]

Which is the prevailing mindset among many admin and leaders within MCPS....[/quote]
