It is uncommon for liberal administrators in public schools to remove principals when disciplinary problems and "turmoil" run rampant. Actually, if all such similarly situated principals were removed, there would probably be precious few left on the job. Remember no matter how many elections Republicans win, liberals continue to dominate public education in, I presume, EVERY state.

two separate $10 million lawsuits by parents alleging a number of actions,

Here's why.

I knew a guy who wanted to homeschool but got some pressure from the admin about it. So he told them "If anything happens to my kid, I'll sue you". They were suddenly very receptive to homeschooling.

Of course they do...after all educators are graduates of public institutions of higher learning and the classes in liberal arts and education are the most propagandized...in socialist dogma

In today's haze of liberalism, it must be pretty hard for a principal to operate. Sexual morality has been replaced by sexual harrassment--which basically means do what you like but don't offend a woman or she will wreck your career. If the principal tries to discipline the teachers, she will be in trouble. If she tries to discipline the students, she will be sued. If she doesn't discipline them, then she will be in trouble when the situation gets out of hand.

It's like the Catholic Church sex scandal. The bishops were strongly urged, even blackmailed, by the liberal media to be sympathetic to homosexuals. Any bishop who resisted got constantly lambasted by the press. Then, when the homosexuals acted as homosexuals do, the bishops were bashed for that. At least in the Catholic Church it should be possible for a bishop to clean house, follow Jesus, and enforce the Ten Commandments. I hope they will do so. School principals don't have that option.
