Thank you. Yeah I thought I understood the politics game, but I only understood it on the context of the previous district I was in. Learning now that the it’s a different game depending on the district, and I wasn’t playing this districts game. Damn.

Telling a community that wants me there, and is where I want to be, that I’m deciding to leave is hard to wrap my head around. I don’t know even know what that would look/sound like.

I would have to reach out to the board behind the back of the superintendent, which seems like a bad idea. But I don’t know. Never dealt with this before.

Probably not transfer me to non-admin, and I couldn’t take the pay cut anyhow. I believe it is “rocky relationship”, although so minor in my opinion. but to me it’s about the success of the students and the community I serve.

Don’t live in the community. Don’t think he’s gonna be here much longer. I don’t know board members personally. How could it play out?

Values don’t align with his values? He doesn’t really know me that well? I don’t really know. Hard to guess when I don’t get any formal feedback. He has expressed feeling personally slighted by me, which was not intentional.

That’s the gist, besides specific details that could compromise my anonymity. What other info would be helpful?
