    Re: Principal interrupts afternoon prayers
    Posted by: Jean Bullock on 9/20/09

    Said a prayer for you, your school and your new principal. If this
    is the first time the individual has been a principal, perhaps she
    will learn to be open to improvement and learn the value of
    positive communication. Good luck to you and may God bless you.
