[quote=Anonymous]"We put in work. Lots, which only made us feel like we were wasting our time. There were no civil conversations to be had with Cobbs. Try one-way conversations - her talking, or you, never both. Then we left, for Maury, where we have been as happy as clams."

I don't think this is a "sweeping generalization." Clearly the woman (Cobbs) sucks at making people feel heard - and whatever the problems the school may have, this is the FIRST, the very first, and most important thing a principal needs to be good at.  Whether she does jack with said info is moot, whether she's already got a program that could work just fine for any child, especially a high-SES one, none of that matters.  The subject here is people's children, their OWN children - not the "generalized DCPS child."  IF you can't make your IB families feel acknowledged, AND your test scores suck A--, you suck at your job.  This doesn't mean she doesn't care abou the kids, or even that she doesn't try - it means it's time to go elsewhere because she's not good at what she should be good at.

If she were educating the kids, it would be easy to say f--- off, but she isn't.  She isn't.[/quote]
