Back in February I found out I wasn’t being renewed for the 26-27 school year. I am cool with that because his leadership skills are non-existent. He is a checkbox principal. He does not talk to his staff or teachers, the principal only talks to a few types of people. He does not do anything to uplift the morale or vibe of the school.

Anyway, on May 22 is the last day of school and he asked for a meeting of five minutes on the 21st. Is it wise for me to attend or not attend? Coming from a principal’s point of view what is the point of a meeting for five minutes for a person who’s being non-renewed for a contract?

Thank you for your guidance

How do you handle parents who have that same statement, “my kid is smart as a whip”. I had a parent-teacher conference and the parent goes, “my kid belongs in The Gifted program”. Me: Have you meant you child? I showed the parent all the assessments to prove that the student is well below average. Parent then goes, “Well, student is not like this at home”. My conclusion, parent is delusional and just scared about hearing the truth.
