Interesting how different our perceptions can be … I think the HOS is amazing and impressive. She is nice to everyone. She  is very hands on, she led the fund raising for the many campus improvements needed, oversaw a very intelligent renovation of campus that makes excellent use of the space, and has spiritual depth. No one is perfect but she clearly cares deeply about the school and the girls. [/quote]

1. She isn't nice to everyone. That's simply not true.

2. How do you know she has "spiritual depth"? That's a meaningless judgement that you cannot possibly know.

3. She cares deeply about the bottom line, and that informs everything she does.[/quote]

1. Ok whenever I have attended school forums: events, she has been nice to everyone. She is always nice to me and I am not important at all.

2. Spiritual depth - I like the way she communicates religious messages and themes related to school events. For example, when new school community/ arts building was being built and it was very messy, she gave some wonderful talks to the girls drawing metaphors to their own development, trying new things A d vision for future community where all the girls could gather for lunch, theater and visual plus performing arts. I like the new spiritual discipline of Espacia she has introduced to encourage daily introspection for a short time.

3. She is a grown up and is responsible for keeping school in the black. Running a high quality school is not cheap. She has to make sure the bills are paid, financial aid allows many girls who otherwise could not afford a SR education to benefit from it.
I could never do her job and admire the way she does it. [/quote]
