You could say same thing about students who don't play teacher games. It's unfortunate there are teachers who are like this and the students are the ones who suffer. Some teachers should have retired a while ago and some should have never gone into teaching.

Both have terrific principals!


Seneca Valley’s principal is still kinda new though.


I have experience working with him. He’s a great guy. No ego.

Yes. I’m experiencing this now myself and have contemplated legal action. This is not acceptable and would never be allowed in the private sector. Our union is worthless. Ironically I felt I had better protections and treatment in my private sector jobs.

But there's a new principal coming in July....


Yes, but it's also historically and consistently been the top high school in the entire state.


This is not even close to accurate
This wasn’t even op’s question. There are posters here who hate on Blair and I don’t get it. I’m a teacher and personally know staff in the social studies and sped dept and they are very happy at Blair and vow to never leave. I can’t say the same for my friends at other schools, including my own school.

Yes. It seems so


Agreed. The most terrible principal I’ve ever had was promoted to central office - I believe, because supervisors knew they were toxic to schools. They’re still there btw.

Would love to know who!

6 actually, and 5 of them were C/O 2024.


That’s actually f**ked up.
