Teachers make less than administrators. There are many teachers who apply every year to the AP pool and don't get a position. This was not discrimination. Many people like him think because they are friendly and do a lot of visible stuff, like conferences and committees, they don't have to be good at the administrative side of the job.

The question is, did he get that feedback from his supervisors? Because it doesn't sound like he did. And if he didn't receive that feedback, then he's right to sue. Demoting someone for performance issues requires thorough documentation. If MCPS failed to do that, they will be the ones in trouble.

The thing is he wasn't demoted, he just didn't get a permanent position. Any teacher can be asked to be acting AP as long as they have their admin certificate. They're not entitled to a permanent position. They fill in and then they go back to teaching. He's upset he couldn't transfer to a permanent admin position but he never applied to the permanent AP pool, he wasn't able to transfer because he was never a permanent AP to begin with.
