[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The assignment at Waters Landing is effective July 1.[/quote]

Has MCPS said who the new principal will be for RCES?[/quote]

They can't even post the job until today since they just announced the current principal would be leaving.[/quote]

How is that a reasonable way of doing things? They should have a replacement lined up before the current principal leaves. That’s ridiculous.[/quote]

As stated earlier, the current principal isn't leaving until the end of June.[/quote]

I don’t care. That’s not enough time to find a new principal. [/quote]

Are you new here? This happens about a dozen times (at least) every year in MCPS.  The board approves principal positions, so they can't post a job before the board has approved the person.  HR has rules they have to follow, including how long a job must be posted (I think it's a week or two) before applications can be reviewed.  2 months is plenty of time to find a new principal.  How long do you think it should take?[/quote]

I’m not new here. Just because it’s the way it’s always been doesn’t mean it’s right.

Do you think 2 months is really enough time to fully evaluate what RCES needs, which candidates are able and willing to address those needs, go through the interview process, etc.? I don’t. But then again, I value thoughtfulness and thoroughness. [/quote]

Ideally they would have the new principal hired before July 1, but even that is not mandatory. If they're in place by late July/beginning of August that can work too. It happens every year.[/quote]
