The Susan Marks Final Presents
I have read, and now heard, that Marks decided to take the Marvin principal out of the school and bring her to central office. Was there no other choice? I am vaguely aware that a paper trail is the only way to rid oneself of bad administrators. Is this an admission that the Director of Elementary Education wasn't doing her job? So why recommend that person to be interim AS? So she can NOT do that job as well? I hope this is Mark's last parting present for Norwalk.

Besties always help besties-- come on, seventh-graders and superintendents know that much!
ReplyDeleteLucky for Marks' biggest critics, she proved them all right on her way out.
ReplyDeleteShe tried to force a promotion for her former Director of Elem. Ed.
She didn't evaluate administrators properly. Why else would she recommend a principal go on "special assignment"?
She wouldn't let the upper schools hire science teachers-- guess what . . . school starts Wednesday. Guess she was so overwhelmed with helping her friends and getting Sue Haynie everything she wanted that she didn't have time to worry about the students.
With any gift-giving holiday (and Marks must have thought there was one given her hijinks), there's always someone who's left with the equivalent feeling of having been given a pair of socks.
ReplyDeleteWill Tony Daddona think his interim promotion was a shiny new bike or just another ugly sweater?
Will Board of Ed members wish Marks had given them all aprons because there will be plenty of her messes to clean up?
And who is going to man the mop and bucket for when Haynie's head finally explodes (after all, even she'll realize eventually that she has no sway on the third floor)?
