[quote=Anonymous]It was not done in secret. You can't get hundreds of parents to sign a petition without holding public meetings and showing them all the things that are actually happening at the school where their kids maybe only see a fraction of it and share even less detail at home. These meetings happened over the course of the past few weeks, in person and on zoom, and were open to all Hardy stakeholders.

At the first one we attended, PJ made what was supposed to be a great "reset" speech. It reset nothing and left our family confused. Another meeting about next year's schedules and electives, which we were unable to attend, left our friends who did attend (and apparently everyone else) even more distressed. Then came the meeting that is the topic of this thread, where a half dozen parent leaders came clean about all the administrative, academic, athletic, and school safety problems in the school. This meeting was an all hands on deck, publicly accessible, open invitation to the Hardy community. It was not secret, and neither was the petition it launched (which mustered the support of a majority of the families in the school, just going by the numbers).[/quote]
