White sale at Kohls?

Money talks... BS walks

I'll write this slowly so that you can understand... You clearly do not have all the facts.

Point 1 -- You're joking, right? He will go from being a principal to being an ASSISTANT principal at another school making less money. How is that a better deal?
-- The principal at Watkins is going to retire within the next six months at the outside. Kemper will move up into the principal job. His salary then will be more than he was making at Central. Kemper has already retired once and came back for a high salary. Once he moves back to a pricipal job at Watkins, he'll likely be making upwards of $170K a year. It's a better deal for him.

Point 2 - What are his qualifications, anyway? If you Google him, you just don't learn much.
-- When did Google become the ultimate source of information or qualifications? I know nothing about Reeves besides the fact that he was involved in getting a largely unruly student body at Reynoldsburg under control. Unlike you, I'm unwilling to condemn someone before they have even been given the opportunity to show us what he is made of.
Not very informative

Not only was your post light on information, it was heavy on insult. I guess that's what you're good at.

To your supposed points:

Where did you hear the principal at Watkins is going to retire and Kemper will then make more money there? What I read in the papers is that the principal will be running for public office. Is he a shoe-in? Who says if Kemper becomes principal he will make more money? Does he already have a contract for principal? Why wouldn't Pickerington schools try to keep him? The majority of the kids/parents love him. Or did he just get sick of the crap and the non-support of the board?

As far as Reeves goes, I asked for examples. How did he get an unruly student body under control? By enforcing the dress code? What exactly does he bring to the table? If you can't answer that, don't even bother responding. You give as many non-answers as board members do.
Where?

Where did I get my information about Mr Kemper?

Ummm...



Wait for it...


Ready?


Mr. Kemper. I've come to know him over the years my kids were in school and when I heard he was thinking of leaving, I called him.

Feel better now?
I heard the same

I also heard that Mr Kemper decided to go to Watkins due to a potential opening at the principal level in the near future.

I do know that he was ''double-dipping'' in terms of pay plus retirement. In addition, the principal job at Watkins does pay more than what he was making at Central. Sounds like a $$$ decision more than anything else.

Just my two-cents.
