[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Scott Branrand is not qualified for his position and he messed up so many things, school closure/opening, distance learning, TJ admission reform etc... Hopefully, the School Board won’t renew his contract next year. [quote=Anonymous]TJ admissions is sucking up all of the energy of the school board. I would hope that they would tell Brabrand to go back, so his homework and give them options in the early Winter. Right now return to school should be the number #1 priority. This is ridiculous [/quote][/quote] So much this. There are ways to return kids to school that don’t results in teachers, DL parents and in person parents tearing each other apart There are ways to reform TJ that don’t involve every stakeholder in the state arguing with each other. He can’t manage and he can’t lead. And he thinks he can solve complex problems without community input, and most importantly, input from stakeholders. Why weren't teachers consulted on his stupid hybrid plan. Everyone in the country turned on everyone else. And it wouldn’t have happened if the first thing he had done was met with principals and teachers and determined what they needed to feel comfortable returning to school. They made people, including teachers, decide, but didn’t have a written mask policy. It’s incompetent. Ditto TJ. It is a Regional Governors School, and other jurisdictions just wrote huge checks for the renovations. How did he not consult them, and the members of the TJ community and the FCPS community and the state legislature before developing this plan. Everyone wants more AA students. But FCPS is only 9-10% AA. Even if they get full representation, would they want to attend? And no one is talking about Hispanic kids, which make up a much higher percent, but are also much more likely to be ELL. It’s a complex problem. He can’t make a decision by fiat. We need a real leader and a real manager. [/quote]
