Wonderful. Thank you very much for the informative lesson. I love it. (I was the one asking about trend.)

Since you're clearly well-informed, what are you (admittedly early) predictions and things to look for? [/quote]

22:54 here.

2010 and 2011 were when things really bottomed out at Hardy. The school was in the paper almost every week, there was a lot of bad behavior on a lot of parts. I give Principal Stefanus credit for lowering the temperature and allowing the school to function again. Since it hit bottom there has been complete turnover in students, almost complete turnover in parents, several turnovers in administration. The one thing that remains are the teachers.

As a parent, I was appalled by some of the things I saw teachers do and heard them say during the worst days. There were teachers who were basically in open rebellion against the central office. In any other line of work they would have been fired that day, but they still remain at the school. Until some meaningful staff changes are made it's hard to see the school progressing.

The measure of Principal Pride will come next September, once she's had a year to get the lay of the land, when we see what staff she opens the next school year with.[/quote]
