[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]School employee here. I’ve been through two administrators at the same school. One kept parents at arm’s length and had rigid approaches to facility use. The other had open door, open arms policy to parents. School size over 600 kids. Pros and cons: Rigid principal had a low parent rapport, but a generally a high employee morale and low employee turnover. Open door principal has much much better parent involvement and parent rapport but low employee morale due to burnout and high employee turnover; employees generally feel unsupported and thrown under the bus by both parents and administrators whenever issues arise. [/quote] My kids are at a parochial school with a rather cold principal who definitely holds parents at arms length, but I guess she's doing something right because we've had no teacher turnover at all. And I have of course noticed that the most involved parents think it gives their kids some sort of pass for poor behavior.[/quote]
