[quote=Anonymous]Agree this forum probably won't tell you much. Our ES principal is kind of difficult for the parents to work with BUT she is fabulous with teachers -- picks the best, gives them the best support, is very deferential to them, etc. The parents put up with her general wackiness because she produces where it matters most -- in the teachers, and we all recognize that's the most important thing. It's precisely that she's so supportive of teachers that she's kind of difficult with parents -- she's not going to let the parents dictate what goes on in the school. I do try to go directly to the teachers with issues, rather than raising them with her, as the teachers generally have better people skills. Also, life lesson -- people that post on anonymous internet forums are disproportionately crazy/mean/irritable/unreasonable, so you have to discount whatever is said by them quite a bit. (Don't believe me? Look at the comments on ANY Washington Post article.).[/quote]
