Just got word that our horrible principal is out as of July 1!

Sadly she wasn't fired - just reassigned. As someone here posted a few months ago it is almost impossible to fire a principal so they tend to be "promoted" as a means of getting rid of them. I assume that's what happened here.

She has been given a job at central office that she applied to and was turned down for 4 years ago. At the time it was considered a "demotion" but something she really wanted to do. Now it is being touted as a "big promotion". Her replacement is, by all accounts, "wonderful". Neither position was advertised or listed on the district's website. Something similar happened a couple of years ago following a sticky sexual harassment situation at one of the elementary schools.

Interesting that all of this happened AFTER they approve DD's OOD placement.
