Hamilton Avenue principal to leave - Greenwich Time

[Real Truth from moms]

Rau was a bully and she had co-bullies...Cline and other administrators at Havemeyer. Each one did things to protect themselves and the image of GPS. The students do not come first in GPS, it's the systme that comes first and preventing lawsuits. She was out to get people for no reason. If she didn't like someone, she used the system to her advantage and she got caught and left. Perhaps the others will finally be unveiled in their dirty deeds. HAS gain is NHPS loss soon to be seen. God Bless them.

Sorry, GPS Parent, completely disagree. Look where the kids used to be academically 5 years ago vs. where they are now. Major improvement due to lots of hard work by her, the staff and the community. She refused to accept the old belief that our kids will never be as smart as kids from more affluent parts of town. Did she ruffle some feathers (especially among the "old guard")? Heck yeah, but I am very pleased with our kids' growth under her leadership.

The kids "may" have improved at once but it was to make her look good as an administrator, it's one thing to "do your job" but do it without being a bully or self- serving conniving person. At the end of the day, you want to respected and looked up to by most of your students, parents and staff, not down upon. Welcome to the new interim principal, what a breath of fresh air!

I didn't know Cline was a bully too, she doesn't seem genuine and Dr. Rau certainly wasn't..I guess administration has it's flaws too, I do want to see a better overall leadership for my kids and people for the kids, parents and teachers. Many parents are unhappy for sure but what can we do?

Is there something to clarify? It would be interesting to know. It's interesting that other parents think Cline was a bully and not so nice. She's fake in her interactions at the PTA meetings.
