"Where do you live so I know not to go there". I am not sure if that was a question, but we would be thankful if you didn't come here. It is not my fault that I have worked for a principal who did exactly the same thing who happened to be a woman. PC is going to be the death of this country. Coach Orr, A. I was talking to DC. Don't want to go where DC is. B. What is PC? C. Why so sensitive? Bad day?

Make a schedule of all the times you need to be in the building for an entire year and then send that book to the admin. from hell, the principal, and the board of educ. and say "you can give me a key, you can hire someone fulltime to let me in and out of the building, or you can replace me." Being prevented from doing your job and going the extra mile for your school and your kids is unacceptable. You need unlimited access and you deserve it.

Unfortunately, due to a principal who is more concerned about covering their own a$$ and taking down others before he goes down, I resigned from my hometown school last week. In the last 2 weeks I've been cussed at for someone else's job (I supervise no one), been kicked out of my office, had my keys taken, and been told to choose sides between the prinicpal and the HC that he fired. It has been an absolutely crazy situation here for the last few weeks.
But, it has led me to a new job and a place I am excited about working in. I say karma comes back around and it does feel good to know you haven't done anything wrong.
And as far as male/female principals I've had 2 of each and they're tied. 1 good and 1 bad for each.

Coach Orr, A. I was talking to DC. Don't want to go where DC is. B. What is PC? C. Why so sensitive? Bad day? PC stands for politically correct or political correctness So he meant polical correctness is going to be the death of this country?? Isn't that a little dramatic??

Dramatic and accurate, because no one will be able to speak about their real experience. I think that the coach should have a lot of control over the gym and facillities as he/she will be putting in the extra time as a benefit for the players and the adminstrator needs to faciltate that endeavour.
Too often people make decisions based not on what is best for the students, but what is politically motivated.

Too often people make decisions based not on what is best for the students, but what is politically motivated. Basically, this is my main problem with the educational system and as an educator/coach, I very quickly start to place people in one of two categories: Those who DO what is best for the students (or athletes, whatever) and those who are politically (or just as often PERSONALLY) motivated and not as concerned with these kids. This admin. I posted about is quite obviously in the latter, particularly when there's some other things I have learned lately that I will not go into. Basically this guy is on a power trip and who knows if the Board has the guts to stop him. Should be interesting.
