[quote=Anonymous]It is immaterial whether you think “proof” about the HOS’s management has been provided on this message board. The proof is being revealed across the school for anyone with eyes to see

Everything that people have predicted has come true

Year 1: Senior administrators who report directly to Penny will be ousted (by her choice or theirs). This has included all 3 division heads, DEI director, Development director, Facilities director, Communications director (x 3)

Year 2: Teacher exodus begins, including some of the best teachers who are eagerly snapped up by other schools, leaving behind a lower quality staff. We still don’t know the identity of all the departures. Some families begin to take note and leave in greater numbers than usual

When Penny came on board 2 years ago, I think parents were hoping for a jolt of energy and maybe a mild course correction. We instead now find ourselves in a complete overhaul which I don’t think anyone was looking for, one going in a direction that not many community members feel good about

Why? Why is this unwanted change allowed to continue at the behest of a newcomer to the community who was unceremoniously dismissed from her previous headship at a lesser school? All these new teachers better be as good as the people they’re replacing or the disquiet is going to get louder
