+1. He's been there since the school was built and personally has hired every staff member. Rumor is higher ups want him for a higher position within the county but he's committed to the school.



I hope he stays!

Bingo. Such a bully. Also putting in a vote for Flower Hill's new principal.


Yes, he’s amazing!


I had Josh Fine as an instructor for some professional development classes, and he really is so committed to students and families. I'm sure he's an amazing principal.

Glad to hear that. I know RP was not happy with the former person.


Ironically I was about to post that the new Barnsley principal is wonderful, compared to the simply terrible former one -- who just happens to be the new RP principal being praised above.


I only had one year of the new Barnsley principal before my kid moved to middle school, and granted 3/4 of the year they were online. But her communication was abysmal. I hope that this year being in person the communication is better.

This must be either from a very unpopular principal or the parent of a difficult student whose parents think they are a snowflake.


I didn’t post it, but boy is it accurate.
