Teach2011- I appreciate your attempt at damage control, but you have provided no information other than what was already stated: an employee/employees were terminated. But this was more than a kind and gentle termination. Several staff and students witnessed a very disturbing and public row between the principal and owners. Some students were crying-secondary students. As a Newton parent who has already had a meeting about unacceptable behavior by a teacher, and then this fiasco...well, I think we deserve a better explanation from the owners about what exactly is going on.
