Y’all, if this is accurate this is a nasty mess created by adults using the school’s money and time to have tawdry affairs. If this is half true it is an absolute embarrassment to the school and the community. If this is a quarter true, this should and must be investigated by the school board. While Principal Sneed is now gone from the school, it is still clear the administration and possibly the school board were complicit in hiding from parents that this is a massive smirch on the Heritage Academy Brand and destroys any faith in their High Moral Standards motto. IF they hid this and allowed Sneed to resign, what else are they sweeping under the carpet and not addressing? Are they ostriches with their heads in the sand or are they truly concerned about the children’s future in the hands of the people Sean Harrison has hired?

Parents are paying good money to Heritage because they want their children to get a better education than they could in the city or county school. However, the latest teachers hired at Heritage under the current administration are not even qualified to teach in those same public schools or would NOT be allowed to teach in those schools because of their pasts. Why are you willing to settle on the mediocrity and incompetence that the current administration is allowing to teach your children for whom you want (and pay for) the best educational opportunities possible?

There are threads on FB of people talking about me, but not one has refuted with any evidence that I have made statements about recent events and the current batch of new hires. I find that telling. They banter about words like “disgruntled former employee” and “jealous” but not one person on these bully pulpit threads has addressed the elephant in the room: the school’s administration is a mess, and the new hires are mostly unequipped and not educated in the areas in which they teach. FACTS…they are ignoring the FACTS and merely attacking the messenger.

Parents at Heritage Academy invest significant money each year into their children’s education. If I were paying almost $9000 a year for my child’s education, I would be demanding my money back and/or calling for the resignation of the Head of Schools.
