[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, the principal is Black - this might have something to do with all of these poster claiming she is "lazy" and "doesn't work as hard" as her predecessor.  Sounds like the previous principal went above and beyond to accommodate the privileged demanding parents and this principal is not.  🤷🏽‍♀️[/quote]

Or it was because he won a Blue Ribbon award of Excellence from the state and she's meh.

One of the many small things he did that I noticed as a parent was he had the gym teacher walk through each lunch period and make sure every child had a meal. If they did not, he addressed it with privacy and delicacy so there were no hungry students in the school.

I'm sorry that some love turn every encounter into a racial debate. This has nothing to do with it.  This has to do with one individual who was excellent at his job vs someone who just shows up and does the minimum. [/quote]

[b]He really was an extraordinary principal. Didn’t MCPS move him to a school that really needed an exceptionally strong principal? [[/b]/quote]

Yes. He went to Clopper Mill ES in Germantown and really had his work cutout for him there. He has done a remarkable job turning around that school. Denise Hammond,  RCES' principal, was ar Little Bennett but hid under the shadow of Dr. Miller, who is an outstanding principal like Mr. Chep. Then, she went to Wilson Wims for only a short while. She might not have had the prep and experience she needed for a cornerstone school like RCES.

Anyways, my parents were in The Kentlands well before Lakelands was even built and their friends and neighbors have all aged out of schools. But, I remember that a lot of kids went to private schools then. It is a close knit community though that is about 60% multicultural and 40% white. We never had any problems and are Black. We still have close friendships with our neighbors from that neighborhood decades later.[/quote]
