Principles have little interest in teaching, all they care about is keeping grant money rolling in, and their paychecks clanging into their account each month. I actually heard three teachers and a principle saying how their favorite time of the school year is when the school is closed and the kids are gone!

He should be what he is...a valedictorian of his school; a brilliant student and someone the school and it's bigoted principal should be proud of. His sexual orientation has nothing to do with anything...or shouldn't.jadedjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16569736113526368917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19466193.post-90516450128820229002015-06-03T12:01:20.001-04:002015-06-03T12:01:20.001-04:00@BloggerJoe

Mr. Buchmann might remain a high school principal in a small Colorado town, but now that his hateful bigotry has been outed, so to speak, he just might lose his job.
