[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 6th grade daughter at Hardy has also reported her gym teacher is sexist. [/quote]

Mine too, and everyone's 6th grade daughters have reported it to the AP when called into a girls-only assembly a few weeks ago. [/quote]

Except nothing changed, the locker rooms remained locked, etc. until this week when they had a sub for gym one of the days, but that was the last day of gym so the girls ended up having a bad experience with a bad male teacher for an entire quarter. Just another example of the crappy year at the school. [/quote]

I agree. The first half of the year was rough. The new principal is hopefully getting his sea legs and learning that being a school principal means being on top of everything within the school, from students to teachers to custodians to DGS work orders. He didn't seem to grasp this, and perhaps still doesn't.

Some changes have been implemented -- see website and tutoring offerings -- and more are coming I hope. The principal has vanishingly short time to salvage this year and then start convincing parents that next year will be different. [/quote]

DCPS seems to put caretaker or newbie principals into schools they think are already doing fine. [/quote]
