This white parent with in-boundary kids attending Shepherd for five years would prefer a Black principal. And we were also satisfied with Principal Brawley, and quite sorry to see her go. Parents pushing for change have never gone through the turmoil that onboarding a new DC public school principal can bring. The years Shepherd went through several principals in several years were quite chaotic and ended up aggravating and pushing out some of the school's stronger teachers at the time. Overall, Shepherd has a large number of truly *amazing* teachers, right now, in large part thanks to Principal Brawley. I worry what the coming changes could do to the current pool of teachers/[/quote]

Another white family and agree with PP above. Never heard a single person express a desire for a white principal!! You have to be a troll. Lol. All the parents who were unhappy with Brawley wanted better communication, better discipline styles (responsive classroom!!), and clean classrooms (rodent dropping gone).[/quote]

Just because they don’t say it doesn’t mean they don’t think it (and communicate it implicitly).[/quote]

Can you give an example?  Otherwise this is just spreading rumors.  I never heard anyone say or imply anything of the sort.[/quote]
