This petition is to support our exceptional principal Jamie Vance. Thanks to a few bullies she has been removed, so we have created this petition because we believe principal Vance’s “reassignment” was unjustified, unfair, badly timed and a huge distraction for our kiddos. We hope to use our resources and speak on behalf of the students, faculty and staff, parents, and of course, Jamie. Our goal is to get her back and at least, allow her to finish the rest of the semester. This can seriously impact our score as one of two A schools in the district as well as our kids performance on the upcoming testing since the teachers have to continue in an environment of FEAR. Her contract is over June 1st anyway. And the coverup (k-3 plus reasssignment) doesn’t start till end of June. So say NO to BULLIES and get on board for your kids.

I am an educator and my nephew attends this great school... Why would an outstanding principal be removed mid academic year bring her back until a proper replacement is found if needed ...this really effects the school and students and the parents as a whole and seems like bad human resource management and odd and unfair that they would move her mid year. There seems to be a lack of transparency In handling this situation.
How sad, our principal was against bullying... stood up for those that couldn't stand up for themselves... and now she's bullied out... we need to stand up for her!
It seems this LCPS administration has a policy of listening to a few unhappy staff/parents and making hasty decisions. Does this mean that they will listen to a minority group and not bother to see how the rest of the DHES community family feels? So I guess that the policy is "Fix it until it breaks". I say in a loud voice ….…Bring back Ms. Vance and let DHES continue to reign high on it's ratings.
This decision was made with NO consideration to the children the district is supposed to serve. Changing the safe and stable environment of developing children in the middle of their academic year would have the worst possible impact on their emotional and psychological wellbeing. Ms. Vance has given so much to the school and students and her outstanding performance is well proven by the status of Desert Hills among all other schools in the district. It is sad to see those in power misuse it for the benefit of few friends on the expense of our children. This decision proves that LCPS district officials couldn't care less about our kids.
These decisions should not be made in haste and without the consideration of the impact it will have on the students. Why is it that we again are reassigning a principal? Second time in the last 5 years as well as vice-principal and many teachers. It appears LCPS needs better leadership. To say we have an A rated school has to account for something. Leadership has to come from the top.
My vote for Mrs. Vance to go back to Desert Hills Elementary
We want her back please. She is awesome principal.
