[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I disagree about Jen Webster. I know some of the churchill parents are unhappy with her, but she’s the one who finally got you a new principal (to be named tomorrow). No prior supervisor has managed to do that, and the county has known for years that that needed to happen. She really listened to the Pyle/Whitman community when it came to the new principal over at Whitman. Also yet to be named, but I heard she chose well. I worked for Jen Webster at Pyle (where she was the principal before she was a high school principal). She didn’t tolerate it if mean supervisors were controlling and bossy to others on staff—none of that kind of thing went unnoticed or unhandled. A few of those women didn’t like her as a result, but I see that as being because she didn’t let them take charge. She was strong and protective of her solid performers, especially if they were on the timid side. I felt supported by her. [/quote]

I think some of the Churchill parents are unhappy with Webster because she doesn’t tolerate problems being swept under the rug, the modus operandi of Dr. Benz.  They know that Webster and her choice of principal will put consequences in place when their entitled progeny are caught selling drugs on campus, etc.  No more of the hush hush, can’t allow any tarnishing of the Churchill name.

Believe me, Webster has done far more good for Churchill in her almost year as Benz’s supervisor than all other supervisors combined.  As mentioned above, Webster is THE reason why Benz is retiring.  A long time AP also retired, and the long time Staff Development Teacher is gone as well.  Both of them kowtowed to Dr. Benz and were symptomatic of all that was wrong under Benz’s “leadership.”  There is a definitive positive change being felt at Churchill now; Jen Webster is THE reason for it.[/quote]

Keep dreaming. Dr. Benz is old. She is retiring. It had to happen at somepoint and her health is starting to fail.  Webster didn't make any miracles happen in that regard and there are problems she didn't do any better with than Benz. Good luck to who follows Benz and has Webster as a boss. [/quote]

Well someone is bitter about Jen Webster.  Maybe she is one of the bitchy Pyle women that Webster knocked down a notch while she was there.

BTW, the post about Webster cleaning house at Churchill is 100% accurate.  It’s the talk of the school.[/quote]

I also think it’s one of the women at Pyle. One in particular—head of a department. She HATED Webster and Webster didn’t let her run the place. When Webster left she got to take charge again, which was a shame. [/quote]
