HAYMARKET -- Elected leaders in Prince William County are voicing their displeasure with the way an external investigation into a longtime school administrator was handled.
The county’s school division on Friday notified parents via a letter that Ronald Reagan Middle School Principal Alfie Turner would not return to the school following an internal investigation into allegations she bullied teachers there. She was reassigned to the school division’s human resources office, and Roger Dallek, a principal who retired from Gar-Field High School in Woodbridge will serve as an interim principal until a replacement for Turner is hired.
Interviews of school faculty and staff conducted during the investigation found that “the strain placed on the principal, assistant principals, and other teaching staff by a relatively small group of discontented faculty members who resisted changes in management and accountability measures, and enlisted parents and social and news media in a public campaign to undermine the administration,” according to letter sent home to Regan Middle School parents from Bill Bixby, a schools associate superintendent.
