Question of the Week #1

Herndon needs a principle with an outgoing principal who helps the school progress academically. Mr Cooper, the short term principal who took place for Mr. Martinez, was a great principal fit for Herndon High School. I heard several positive comments from teachers and students regarding Mr. Coopers attitude and personality. The principal needs to be interactive with the teachers, parents, and especially the students. The new principal should show pride in the school attending events and sports. I feel that the principal needs to be nice, caring, and personable. Like many of the current High School students, we do not want Mr. Cooper to leave. The principal show look at him as a model and show his dedication in his work.

Mr. Bates is said to be the new principal. I think he will be a great principal showing interaction with the students and staff. He has talked with many of the students and knows what we want as a school. He is personable and I have seen him at most of the events at Herndon High. I think he is a suitable principal and he will satisfy the schools needs.
