[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Meanwhile, the elementary school principals are playing a round of 18 at Wintergreen Resort. While a bunch of them have many vacancies to fill. Think they took leave? [/quote]

I don't know, but it's such a bad look for FCPS. They get huffy when someone asks why they can't pay aides, custodians, and bus drivers enough to actually live in the county or give employees with more than 20 years' service a nicer bonus than a plastic lanyard, but there's apparently plenty of money to send over 100 people on a $$$ "golf outing".

It is an annual conference put on by the Fairfax Principal’s Association, so I’m pretty sure they pay their own way. But the conference started at 7 tonight and there must have been 40 of them playing golf at 10am this am. And who knows how many others at the spa and pool. Just not a great look to be here all day before it started playing golf with your buddies. I’m sure they thought no one would be watching, but many FCPS parents and staff have second homes there/vacation there. Not a great look to be playing 18 wearing fcps gear on a Wednesday, guys.

PP. If the association is indeed paying their own way, I don’t care. If this is being footed even partially by the school district, it’s ridiculous. [/quote]

[b]Feel this way about all the other government funded organizations that do team building? [/b]I have worked as an officer in the Navy and I’ve worked for an I H, these things occur there as well.[/quote]

Yes I do, especially if that government-funded organization is constantly begging to find workers because it severely underpays the people who do the heaviest lifting.[/quote]

Ugh.  I’m glad you get just one vote. We cancel each other our.[/quote]
