+1. They've only been in a senior position at this start up school, so they don't bring experience understanding how to do things at an established school. The top leadership tends to hire non-threatening suck ups into leadership positions as opposed to professionals who bring strong experience. This was a problem at our feeder charter too.[/quote]

Non threatening suck ups? You know them personally? What makes you think that is what happened?

It looks  like they tried to hire some outsiders with “experience” and had some fails.

There is plenty of experience to be had in growing with the school, understanding the history, knowing the kids and staff, and being generally understanding of the inner workings of the institution. Also, every leader has a first leadership position. Where else does one get experience? [/quote]

I’m not the pp you responded to, but I  *do* know them personally. The executive director only wants people in positions of power who she knows she can manipulate and who won’t question her. These founding staff members who are now leaders weren’t even necessarily good teachers. And many of them only had/have a BA and went from being a classroom teacher with a few years of experience to an assistant principal, director, or principal.

The CAO who was there in 2018-2019 was really good! He was a genuine and kind person, so of course he didn’t work out there. [/quote]
