[quote=Anonymous]We thought the departing headmaster at St. Anselm’s was great. He really cares about the boys and was invariably positive even in tough circumstances. We thought he handled covid well, although parents insisting that “covid is over because WE SAY it’s over” got more than their fair share of attention and influence. He had weekly phone chats where anyone could broach any topic, and he invited follow up. He had a light touch, but responded to the concerns we broached. The complaints seem to be coming from the same people who hire a school to educate their sons and then complain that they don’t get to be in charge. E-mails not getting through? Please. We had that problem one time the first year. We talked to the tech guy and it was fixed. Teacher not returning assignments. We ran into that and after parents raised the issue we saw improvement. We’re personally sorry to see the headmaster leave, but the designated “interim” replacement is a very solid man who has done a great deal for school and students for many years and will undoubtedly build on that foundation.
