Morehead principal honored
Martha Snavely, the principal at Morehead Elementary in Greensboro, recently was honored with the 2005 Woman of Achievement award from the City of Greensboro's Commission on the Status of Women.
Snavely, who has been Morehead's principal since 1999, won in the Education category. Under her leadership, Morehead was named an Honor School of Excellence - the highest possible classification - on the state's 2004 ABCs of Public Education report card. Nearly 93 percent of the school's students passed state reading and math tests last year.
She's also been great to us here at the News & Record over the years. So here's a big Chalkboard congratulations to Martha Snavely!

Today is also a tragic day. The Guilford County School board has just voted in the last bit of insanity, and I can take no more.
The Advanced Learner (AL) program is now gone. Why doesn't the board just call it what it really is: "Basic Learning for under-Achievers To Create the Illusion that All Guilford County Children are Advanced"
What's next, admitting ALL High Schoolers to The Early College @ Guilford?
Forcing 4th Graders to take the SAT?
Forcing Kindergarteners to take Algebra I?
This new policy is a smack in the face to our high achieving students and families. It is saying to them that their education is 2nd priority to the under-achieving, struggling students.
Only Darlene Garret and Anita Sharpe could see through this smoke-screen. I believe others on the board can see it too but they've already fallen under the "I can be bought out" spell of Grier.
What a sad, pathetic system we have. Why don't they just send notes home with the children that says: "if you are up to grade level, please leave our system. We have to shuffle again to make it look like we're teaching the others."

I find it interesting that Snavely has been at Morehead since 1999. Maybe that has something to do with her impact on the school. I am getting tired of the musical principals game although there have been some that I have been glad to see go. There has been no stability for years at Andrews. At least at Welborn the AP postions have been stable. Mr. Roger Wood, the new principal who came in February, seems to be really good. Hopefully he will stay awhile.
