This School Year So Far

Our school lost its director last month. We had so much trouble the first year with finances, and just the general struggles with opening a new school. In December we were old there would be duts in staff and benefits. The teachers became distrustful of each other and administration. Discord set in. A few weeks ago the Board hired a management company to try and save our school. We have a guy a couple of days a week, come in and reorganize. He fired four people last week, The whole counseling department and the Librarian. He said he did this in order to save teacher's jobs. So, we have stayed open and the goal is to increase enrollment so that we can stay open next year.

  1. That is unfortunate Paula. I had no idea your school had such harsh economic troubles. The school I worked at last year is going through the same thing, but for much different reasons I am sure :-). That must be very stressful not knowing if you job is safe...I hope all works out well.
