[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please explain how you think Rohner is on the right track. What specifically has he done to solve any of the problems in the school? Perhaps I am out of the loop.

The administration should come up with a clear plan and follow through. MCPS is great with lip service but no action.[/quote]

He was amazing at the meeting after the botched evacuation. [b]But you weren't there. It is easy to sit and complain, much harder to come to the school, get involved and find out what is really going on.[/b] [/quote]

LOL - I'm glad you know who I am and where I have been.  If it was the public security meeting advertised to parents, then I was there.  If you are talking about another meeting that parents were selected to attend and a public invite did not go out to the entire school, then you are right, I probably was not there.

I've also advocated to Central Office to have text message alerts throughout the county so parents are not dropping off children to what could have been a violent situation.  My children and I did not check emails before leaving the house that morning.  The MCCPTA also supported the use of technology such as text alerts.  I think MCPS is working in that direction.

I will give Churchill a pass on the evacuation issue to begin with.  I think all high schools on that given day would have had the same problems.  The Superintendent and MCPS deserve the credit for actually working on campus security and observing drills at schools so they can be evaluated and improved.  [/quote]

So what else are you expecting of Brad? [/quote]

There are other issues in the school that he did not respond to as Interim Principal. He was basically keeping the chair warm for a few weeks while Dr. Benz was out.  No real action. Frankly, he was probably underwater and not prepared for the job. I just thought the PP who praised Rohner would have a more specific example of his leadership to back up the post.[/quote]
