[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have no affiliation with Springbrook HS but everything mentioned in the letter seems so minor. It is as if the principals before were very relaxed and then she comes in and puts rules and practices in place. Observations are a given, it does not matter how many times a year. You can have one every day…. I don’t understand how teachers hate her and then expect a glowing reference from her when they try to leave. Nicknames to students is not unheard of and unless a child stated it made them uncomfortable, then it’s not a big deal. I was expecting her to call people crackers and the n word as a nickname. Transfer out teachers. There is a teacher shortage.[/quote]

There was no wiggle room under Durso. He was no slacker. She worked with him. I can recognize some of her behaviors when she was my colleague. I liked her a lot. She was no nonsense.

I'm another poster. I think times have changed. People have gotten very sensitive. I had people walk in and out of my class all the time - from all levels. We keep our doors open and unlocked.

Maybe I'm a different person. I left MCPS in 2018. Things have changed, I suppose.

just offering another perspective as a teacher [/quote]

When she was at Key Middle School, she went off on a teacher, who is quite excellent, and put her on probation for something inconsequential. At the end of the year, she left for Springbrook, and the probationary case for the affected teacher was never mentioned again. It was very unsettling. Some people manage up well (as towards Durso) and the manage down poorly with those who report to them.
