[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Question: when you were kids how much did your parents interact with school leaders? How many newsletters/meet & greets did your parents read/attend? Why have we convinced ourselves that a principal who runs a school & doesn’t do breakfast meetings is terrible? When did our expectations become so unreasonable? [/quote] My elementary school principal was very visible to me as a child. She greeted students, visited classrooms, was in the halls during transitions, knew our names. She also coached the 7th/8th grade soccer team. My high school principal was less visible but we all still knew him and he knew lots of us. He was available to us if we wanted to talk and I had friends that did take some heavy stuff to him. I don’t remember having a school counselor, but he kind of functioned like one. This was the 80s and early 90s in upstate NY. [/quote]
