The job Capitol Hill’s Lowell Elementary principal Gregory King said he was resigning to take is no longer his, the Tacoma News Tribune reports:
A Seattle school principal who has been the subject of criticism by educators there and whose school is under investigation by Seattle Public Schools will not move into a Tacoma principal’s job, Tacoma school officials said in a reversal Thursday.
Seattle Public Schools has confirmed that a special investigator is about to complete a report on personnel conflicts at the school under King’s leadership.
The Seattle Schools Community Forum site has posted what it has learned about the investigation involving the treatment of students by a staff member and the subsequent handling of complaints about the situation.
According to the TNT, concerns about the situation at Lowell apparently followed King to Tacoma as the acting superintendent Carla Santorno “said in her letter Thursday that she had received ‘a lot of commentary and information’ from the Bryant community about the announcement that the district intended to hire King.”
