[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Board members don't serve 20-year terms. Many of them weren't there when the debt was taken on. A big chunk of that debt was accrued c. 2021 with the new US building. No doubt some of them were just along for the ride and didn't look hard at what the school needed. But many are either already gone, or will be by July when their terms end. I know a lot of posters wanted an all new Board (me included), but the school let us know that's not going to happen. It will be some of the same and some different. I'd imagine that was probably one od the terms of the reopening deal. The closure can't be simplified to one person or one factor. But I think we've gotten the info that we're going to get about that, from the school and this forum. The school is clearly focused now on the future and making the next three years a success (yes, even with half the student body). New families can decide for themselves if the info available now is enough for them.[/quote] The fact that it was over so many years and not just suddenly one person making a mistake is what reflects worse on the school for me. Means the problems are deeply rooted in the school. No one spoke up no one questioned what they saw and no one told the families. How long does it take to take out those roots and clean house?
