[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are countless NCRC apologists on this thread who can’t seem to fathom that there was a culture that ignored red flag or didn’t follow proper procedures all the time (this is different than saying people knew JC was a pedo and ignored that). It’s fine that current and alum parents believe this. But what I believe is going to happen is that [b]they will completely clean house at NCRC and get rid of a ton of administrators who were there under JC’s tenure[/b]. Maybe it’s my MBA speaking, but this would be a standard reaction to a scandal this big and this gross. Current families might see the “magic” of NCRC, but remember they need to recruit new families…new families need a lot of reassurance when it comes to where they are sending their very young children.

There are not a "ton of administrators" at NCRC to get rid of.

Your MBA was worthless if it taught you to make diagnoses and preach to others without first gathering real facts (not facts from situations you presume, but don't know, to be analogous).[/quote]

Exactly. Go to law school next time to learn about due process.[/quote]

Wasn't he the boss of the NCRC "administrators?" The people responsible here are the board members who hired him. Nobody else. You're going to blame teachers or admin staff, who aren't the ones how hired him?[/quote]

DP, all of the above dropped the ball on this one. Each and every one.[/quote]

how exactly did they drop the ball?? He had no record---worked at Beauvoir and Concord Hill without issue. He did not play in a roll in the classroom life of NCRC. What in the world should they have done differently? [/quote]

James was extremely effective at his job at ncrc. Kids consistently got into their top choices. When you give a person like that the power you’re blinded to warning signs bc the system is working. They’d time the audition a week before notifications came out and if you follow the money people who gave got into their top choices. Just like every private school  in dc and everywhere. And that all being said - he was a very odd dude. No one was close with him. He offered coming to your house to read bedtime stories as an auction item and it was gossiped about how creepy that would be. That’s ignoring signs. [/quote]
