[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maury principal is a wonderful principal. He has been very attentive and helpful during our transition to hybrid. I was Shocked when he announced he was leaving. I was hoping that he would help coach us through the name change and get the kids excited about the prospect. Maury is full of gen X moms who are only “liberal” in voting record. I’m sure he faced many micro aggressions at Maury. I heard Him called “lazy” and “unprofessional” on the playground too many times to count. I know That being the only black, male principal of an elementary school in the state was important to him, but I also Know that he felt dissapointed by the changing demographics of the school. Maury used to be one of the most diverse schools but many of our black families from the Parker grey neighborhood are being forced out of old town by demolition and new development. He hoped that we would advocate for continued diversity to the school board. He told me one time that he was from Kentucky where racists fly a flag. Here, he said, they wear a mask and you think they are a friend until they show their colors. He was a great principal and had such a positive impact on our kids. He has a bright future ahead of him and let this be a wake up call for our school parents who need to appreciate great talent when we have it. [/quote]
