[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some background for those who are interested: Turner was briefly the principal of nearby a DCPS between stints at Two Rivers but his 1-year contract there was terminated early under very non-transparent circumstances. That school (JO Wilson) has since gotten a principal who seems to have settled things down and created stability and an upward trajectory there.

Wow. Very interested to hear what is going on. We were at TRY years and years ago when Turner was principal and I liked him, but i was admittedly very naive back then. Nothing would surprise me now. [/quote]

I feel the same as a parent of a now-older student. Though I will admit that one reason we didn't take a spot at TR4 in the last few years was partly because I just got a weird "vibe" from the administration including Turner. I struggle with the kind of false cheer of a lot of charter admins -- it feels cult-y and not honest. But I don't know that this was specific to Turner or just part of the TR4 culture which doesn't fit our family. I am glad we aren't there now if only because I wouldn't want to deal with this upheaval.[/quote]

We were at TRY years ago and this vibe really really bothered me—much more than I anticipated. Frankly, I’m just too snarky. [/quote]
