[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ohhhh Japanese is back. Awesome! That could be good for my kid if they are accepted this year.[/quote]

I really like that this new Principal is doing things to make TJ academically excellent rather than engaging in social engineering.[/quote]

By making TJ like any other high school?[/quote]

I like the guy (and I liked Dr B too) but this is my sr TJ kid's complaint. They've been stripping out some of the things that makes it different. [/quote]

Like what?[/quote]

The entire culture at TJ has become very negative and toxic and this all a result of Mukai's lack of leadership. He doesn't respect his teachers and has shut them out and even the division leaders out of actual collaboration. Instead of coming in and getting to know the staff and the students first, he has dictated everything without any clear vision or justification. He flip-flops constantly to the point that teachers cannot trust anything he says and he bullies any teachers who question anything he says or does. [/quote]

Any specific examples?
Because Mukai has held more useful parent zoom calls in the first year than Bonitatibus did her entire tenure.
He seems significantly more engaged with the parents.  I can't comment on his dynamic with the teachers but I have heard good things from the teachers at his old high school.  Why would his management style have changed so drastically for the worse?[/quote]

Not sure how he is when speaking to parents, but he is a terrible public speaker with staff on the rare occasions he actually addresses staff. He just talks in circles with the occasional buzz word thrown in, but teachers can see through his BS. He has no clear vision and has thrown additional tasks onto teachers without any explanation about why they they are doing this or who this is for. [/quote]
