[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This entire thread is horrible and going way too far. I would also like to know what the students of Hardy are saying. I know two families who are very happy at Hardy.  They are also appalled that all of this is taking place. The principal deserves support and encouragement. It is obvious the man is working hard not only running Hardy but dodging the BS. What no one is willing to say is that race may be a huge factor in how the new principal is being treated. I know some of the folks who are leading the witch hunt-smh. DCPS needs to take a firm stand against all forms of racism and interrupt this crap. Everyone has a right to be treated fairly and equitably— including this principal.

The crazy thing is the incident rates at Hardy are comparable to other middle schools including Deal. Not understanding why we are basing our opinions and judgments on rumors rather than facts. The district should use objective data and metrics to evaluate the performance of the principal and communicate the results to the community so we know what is really going on. This will help to dispel any misinformation that may be circulating[/quote]

If I am reading this right, you have no direct connection to Hardy other than knowing two families with kids there and one or two of the very dedicated parent volunteers who are leading this extraordinary effort to save the school. Soyou have no first-hand experience into what is going on. But you yet have the gall to anonymously claim that those who have been in the trenches every day of this school year trying to make Principal Johnson a great principal are a bunch of racists? All of the grade level liasions, the PTO, and the LSAT? They are all a racist cabal? Even though they include many people of color? Your accusation is nothing short of disgusting. I sincerely wish I had the opportunity to confront you face-to-face and tell you what I make of you. What has gone on this year at Hardy is completely inexcusable. If DCPS chooses to protect the principal after all that he has done to drag a great school down, I will be bitterly disappointed.[/quote]
