While I agree with you that experience is a good thing, however, it is not foolproof. Yes, there are many people who need experience before they can be good principals. However, I have seen far too many great candidates with little to no experience, and too many terrible "experienced" people who just know how to game the system.<br /><br />I think experience is an important aspect to being good at your job, it is not an end-all, be-all aspect of a job.<br /><br />This obsession with having "experienced" people and not "starter" people, I find is a bit elitist, but, to be fair, I do realize that you want the best education for our kids. So I just ask that you look at the complete person, not just what it says on a resume. Should the district open up the search/interview process to parents, district staff and community members, I suggest going so you can make as an informed decision as possible.

Dr. White and Board President Turek, who set the agendas should be embarrassed to have waited half a year to answer Mr. Mejdrich's question and to allow any administrator to misrepresent the timing of his inquiry by using the term "recent."HMS Parentnoreply@blogger.com
