Yeah, but after Beidleman, finally seeing MCPS taking this behavior seriously.

I knew Dr. Munsey when he was at Wheaton and my child was too. I didn’t know a lot of this info so it was well hidden. I can say that he did some things well and connected well with some students. He obviously had had lots of personal and performance issues. Wheaton is a lot to manage since it also includes managing Edison also. That requires a strong admin team.

The negative part on mcps is that he did a bunch of terrible things at Wheaton but wasnt fired jnitially- just demoted to an AP position-- it was only the outcry from the parents of that subsequent community that get him placed on leave and then fired- shameful.

He should apply to UMD that is the pass the trash route. They might make a job for him with his glowing resume.

MCPS managed to bury this one somehow.

There was a lot of chatter here about this especially at the time he was demoted and assigned to WJ.

Dr. Munsey should be ashamed of himself. If anything, MCPS took way too long to get rid of him.

Another one of McKnight's terrible principal hires.

Looks like he did some bad stuff when he showed up at school intoxicated (sexual harassment, not evacuating a student with medical needs in a timely manner)

Leadership in public education needs a thorough investigation.

Where is this info?

Interesting- it looks like the former wheaton principal went against the board if education, saying his alcoholism should have been viewed as a disability and he was wrongfully terminated.
