[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Administrative capacity is fairly weak and the principal isn't too sharp, not a capable leader by any stretch of the imagination. She replaced a strong personality, the popular, long-serving head who used to push back against DCPS to protect his teachers. He got canned as a result during the pandemic. This empty suit replaced him. Right, not a secret that she sucks. [/quote] Empty, mean-spirited statement devoid of any substance/detail. What, specifically, are you upset about? From my perspective as a parent of a 9th grader, things seem to be running smoothly enough. [b]Teachers show up;[/b] classes are conducted; g[b]rades entered in Aspen[/b]; field trips occur; special events take place some school days (so I hear). Very little interaction with administration/principal (why would there be?), so nothing to judge them on.[/quote] Teachers show up - not our experience. They have had hiring issues for key positions When teachers go out on Family Leave for months they do not always have someone to take over the class. We had the experience for months that the kids were given on-line learning for the entire leave and a random teacher popped in to take daily attendance. [b]ASPEN - My kids grades went from all "As" to not "As" as all the grades were entered in the week after to grading period ended. [/b] Field Trips - My kid was on a field trip and the bus dropped them off at the wrong location I actually expect more. [/quote] This should not be allowed to happen. Especially in HS when GPA is really important. [/quote]
