It now says that she’s a 5th grade teacher?! Someone must have the story!


Story is she is listed as a 5th grade teacher. Doesn't that tell you everything ?

Does Westbrook ES go to B-CC HS?

All because they fear lawsuit


Yes! Did you hear the crazy canned phrase they had to repeat over and over when Westbrook's counselor left?


Why did she leave?


Lol.
-DP not the one above yours.

You should ask for a meeting with the director who oversees the school.

Why are you asking sensitive personnel questions on a public forum?


Families want to know what’s happening at this school. Having a principal that is not coming back after being on leave and a vice principal that announced retirement around the same time is really suspect. Families are entitled to information about what’s happening at the school and that the their children are being kept safe.

Does anyone have more insight into recent developments with the leadership team at Westbrook and what’s happening?


I don't think the Vice Principal announcement is "suspect" at all given the reason provided int the email that went out to Westbrook parents.

Ok drama llama--I don't have kids at Westbrook, but question your assupmtion that having a principal on leave threatens the safety of your child. Why don't you email whomever is acting for the principal and ask? Or better yet, join the PTA and ask someone there.

Does anyone have more insight on what’s happening at Westbrook? It seems like something is going on as the principal is not returning and the vice principal announced retirement.
