Fox 5 news: Parents say MCPS ignored complaints about principal for years @mcps @mocoboe

Calls for accountability are intensifying among some Montgomery County teachers and parents who say they’ve complained for years about a principal’s harassment and bullying, but nothing was done. 

Jenni Coopersmith wants to know what took so long? 

She is a former Montgomery County Public Schools para-educator and parent who told FOX 5 she complained to school officials years ago that she and her daughter were harassed. That was back in 2016, and now six years later, that same principal faces 18 allegations of sexual harassment and bullying.

  1. The complaints about principal
    For the past twelve or so years
    As it happens usual and typical
    Fell on the proverbial deaf ears.

    1. This is proof of the pervasiveness of the cover-up culture in MCPS. The harassment happened during the tenure of at least 3 superintendents, yet nothing was done.

    2. The pervasiveness extends
      To those holding public office
      Making allegorical statements
      To springboard in higher office.

  2. Great report! Parent and former paraeducator Jenni Coopersmith at 01:15 in the video really rocks!
