Barbara London, UK	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #1 Apr 29, 2011 Judged: 1 I'm very concerned that a 19 year old can become principal never mind assistant superintendent. This just seems like letting the insane run the asylum. In my day, experience mattered when appointing school officials. But I guess sadly times have changed.

Ms. Smith is in her 60's and has been the principal of the school she is present in for 19 years! Before that she was principal of several other schools. Just wanted to clarify the facts. nancy
Nancy Wallingford, CT	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #3 May 11, 2011 See Above. @Barbara....Ms. Smith is not 19 years old, she is in her 60's. She has been the principal of THAT school for 19 years and principal of several other schools prior to that.
