[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He's a controlling and insecure egomaniac without being a serious person. Not a good, astute, brave or mature leader. He's peppy and cheery without substance, can't make difficult decisions. He loves to reassure parents that nothing's wrong, that everything's in hand, to paper over deepening problems requiring urgent attention. He's not all bad, has improved ECs, has made some good hiring decisions and has bolstered high school retention overall (but not in time for the current senior group of around 40). From my perspective, it's unwise to trust him, respect him or believe in him. In a nutshell, if you're in a position to move on to a HS with capable leadership, you leave.[/quote]

Agree with all of this, except that the extracurriculars are still very weak.

I find him to be the worst kind of coward. He lies because he can’t handle confrontation or difficult decisions. I can respect someone who is a straight shooter, even if I don’t agree with their ultimate decision making. But it’s very frustrating to be dealing with someone who is both extremely disingenuous and a poor decision maker. There are just no leadership skills there. [/quote]

My favorite is at EVERY town hall or small meeting he finds a way to get out of answering a difficult question by say "It's a legal thing"
You would think congress had approval in the school running[/quote]
