Please invite people from the independent school world to join this group, if they have experienced an unhappy departure from a role that reported to a board. We are here to support one another in moving forward.
We are not here to take sides or find allies in our battles. We look to the future, not behind us.
Share your own information, not other people's.
Resources, wisdom, and anonymized stories are fine to share.
Otherwise, what is learned in this group should stay private.
Abrupt transitions can be brutal.
We give one another grace, and assume the best intentions.
We do not know the truth behind, or judge, others' stories, nor the stories of the people we hear talked about.
"Dance like no-one is watching. Email like it will be read aloud in court."
There is no attorney-client privilege here; this club can be subpoenaed.
Anything on this site, the spreadsheets, or the listserv has the potential to be shared by others without your knowledge.
Illegal activities, discriminatory or hate speech, and other harmful or unethical behavior is prohibited and might be reported to authorities.
