"Too many coaches who also teach, versus teachers who also coach. Equates to a lot of days out of the classromm "for other duties" and many, many worksheets."

"This teacher from the previous post obviously has no idea what an iron fist is, my children moved from a school with a dress code that required shirt tucked in, belt, no skirts or shorts. My girls were thrilled with being able to dress any respectable fashion; in addition, it allows teachers and principals to focus on what is important, not a wardrobe. In their old school a simple toss of something at lunch would require suspension because of a scare of a food fight, this principal is out at lunch talking to our children and is not over reacting to simple teen gestures. Just because he ask more from the teachers is not a reason to post a negative comment about the school, SV is an amazing school!!! We moved here with 3 children starting anew and I found supportive faulty, staff and student body!! It started slowly, teachers were slow to respond to emails unless the principal was cc'd but eventually his "iron fist" showed some some changes with all the teachers. I respect structure, this is the the exact structure my children need! Sorry you bitter teacher!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"The principal has obviously never been in a school where the kids are great. There is not a problem and he rules with an iron fist. The teachers, faculty, and staff all complain about him and he has turned the school into a fear based learning environment. Besides the fact that he is a bad principal, %50 of the Senior class is failing for the year."
