[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The big issue with DCPS is that it’s only a 1 year contract.  It does not encourage a long term view or commitment from applicants.  Move up to get a principal position and then leave in 1-2 years for something better.

It also doesn’t help that DCPS’s model to top down with principals having much less autonomy as central office tries to control everything.  Then when you don’t toe the line with them, they will let you go or won’t renew your contract.  I think that is what happen with School without Walls HS principal.

It’s a dysfunctional set up.[/quote]
His contract was renewed - he was FIRED in October when he stood up to central office[/quote]

I thought he was insisting on an in-person test while refusing to reopen for in-person school.[/quote]

Rumor is he was pushing to keep schools closed when they were trying to reopen but they claimed he didn’t follow proper lottery protocols to let kids into FS.  Which honestly he hasn’t followed in years at either school. They just wanted him gone and to have someone who would toe the line and be controlled by central office.[/quote]
