I have been thinking about the thread concerning weeding and "Books cost
money".  At first I figured that principal had to take the cake. I would
also agree partially with the advice to quit since she cannot do the job
she has been hired to do.

However, I did some more thinking on it and wonder if the situation can b=
e
saved. In the description of the situation the PTA had given the funds fo=
r
the salary and purchase of books. I wondered how much input the principal=

had in this decision. Might he be somewhat threatened and feel that the
decision of the PTA was a reflection on him since the school didn't have =
a
librarian and/or a book budget. If he was cut out of the original decisio=
n,
this might be the way he can 'save face".  =


Perhaps a meeting between the principal, the PTA president and the
librarian to talk over the situation and made sure all parties have a
chance for input might save this.

If not, then I agree with QUIT.
