[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The principal of my school is pretty damn awesome.  Maybe not from the perspective of a teacher that isn't performing well...[/quote]

Typical DC response: It must be the teacher's fault. Nooooo way could a leader just suck, huh?

Believe it or not, even well-performing teachers who are adored by admin can see how terrible the leader is in many cases.

By the way, which school are you at? Shout out your awesome leader! I'm sure he or she won't mind. And I'm certain it's not ALL leaders. But the type of mean-spirited, bullying, incompetence I've seen in the leadership in DC has not been seen anywhere else. So I can't help but wonder what makes DC a place for these terrible people to thrive when we all know they wouldn't survive anywhere else.

So, which schools have awesome leaders? I'd love to know they exist because what I've seen and heard of is scary.

Well, I was speaking about a hypothetical situation where I could see someone not liking our principal.  Not sure why you jump to conclusions like that other than a giant chip on your shoulder.
A different poster listed a handful of principals, which happened to include the principal of my kids school.

You might love to know they exist, but the big chip on your shoulder is probably getting in the way.  Not every situation is black and white.  Just because some administrators suck (and some teachers suck) doesn't mean that they all do.[/quote]
