The principal-intern, Stephanie Brant is excellent. She is caring, involved, sensible. Already we see little touches that make the school better. We wish she could be the permanent principal for this school, then maybe we'll see more improvements. The teachers are mostly good, though their focus is more on the children who are getting left behind, thus the smart kids are the ones who get left behind. Highly gifted center is like a school within the school, which may be good or bad depending on which perspective you take.
The new principal Zabetakis, who came in in 2006, does not really take time out to speak to the parents. When you finally get a hold of her she will rush you 'because she has another meeting'. She does not even seem to know the students' names when she meets them in the hallways (and she's been here over a year now!).I hope that the school's standing and the students' performance do not suffer as a result of this principal's inability to inspire. The rest of the staff who have been there for years is wonderful.
