PPS needs to listen, respect, and react to parent feedback, in an honest, open and equitable manner.
This board and superintendent are completely out of touch with their customers. The more they remain in self-congratulatory mode (with no sense of urgency to respond to customer complaints/suggestions) the closer they move our district to a complete meltdown. They really seem to believe the only reason their support is so low is because they haven't advertised their successes enough.
PPS should develop a professional code of conduct for PPS employees that forbids them from engaging in private conversations about any student or parent to anyone, other than for internal need-to-know conversations relative to student needs. From the board, to
the supe, to communications and all the way down, this district allows ugly, irresponsible, false and unprofessional conversations to take place about PARENTS, both within and outside the organization! This is a breach of confidentiality, and should be forbidden!
They also need to get off their high horse, and start holding board meetings in the communities instead of at BESD. And they need to stop being so defensive, and realize that the "complaining customer" is ultimately the BEST customer.
