November 2013

New school mess up! Yay!

Our boss sold the school to an investor. At first I was on the defensive. He had basically walked around the school, with no introduction and we had no clue what his role was, if only that he put money in the school. He finally got introduced to the staff as the investor and as the « team leader » . We feared that this meant that the new branch director would lose her job, but he never really let anyone think that way as days went by so it was fine. He personally would climb on chairs and replace burnt light bulbs, bought new bathroom slippers and carpets so that the bathroom hallway would not always be wet and gross (kids are messy when they wash their hands…). He appeared like the kind of guy that, short of experience as a school principal, at least was ready to put physical effort in making things worked. 

Meanwhile, my kids kept getting better and better <3

Then our former director (still the president of the NGLOW schools) had to come in everyday to settle things with the mothers of our kids. Why the hell are they changing things AGAIN? Aren’t things setting up just fine? Why change owner? What is wrong? I’d probably be fed up with things as well if I had been one of those moms. Kids at this age need consistency not change. But the president is a sweet talker. He has that charisma that those who always have had everything go their way have, and he put some more time in the time-bomb.
