  1. There's no question that if Starr can get the heck out of Dodge (Montgomery County); he will. He won't walk; he'll run. Maybe he can be the "Social Justice Warrior" in LA. Now that's loyalty for you!

  4. He's got offspring in MCPS; my wager is that he won't be going anywhere just now.

  6. No one wants Starr. The idiots on the MCPS BOE hired him and they don't have the sense to cut our losses and not renew his contract. We are stuck with BOE's biggest blunder... our tweeting supt.

  7. Funny that Morrison just resigned here in Charlotte stating "family issues" but if he indeed got this job then he basically lied to us all here. Wow...Have fun with that.

    1. Nothing bad. Just another professional using Charlotte as the stepping stone that it is.

  8. Morrison is using his mother's failing health as his reason for stepping down. LA can have this heartless man!
