The school's founder (the president of the university) has a vision for the school to be a place for children to grow into independent thinkers ready to enter the world theater through an education that is substantially different from the standard Korean high school experience. I think it is an admirable vision, a goal worth working towards, and one that would require a staff of exceptional teachers, especially while the school is still growing. I'm happy to state my opinion that my fellow teachers can stand toe to toe with an all star team of the best teachers from my highschool career.
Unfortunately we had been saddled with an ineffective leader. Well, I'm happy to say that the principal has been fired and as a result I am now very optimistic about the future of the school. He opportunistically showed his true colors in an unambiguous way at the right time and the staff's complaints were given serious consideration. Again, I realize that I'm leaving out all the nuances for the sake of public relations, but I at least feel comfortable enough to say that the drama of it all unfolding gave me a buzz.

I'm still confused that they gave you more money and a motorcycle.
Your subtle statements to avoid saying something on a blog are confusing to the sporadic 'google reader' reader. They fired the principal for doing what?
Please elaborate and do what you can to get yourself in trouble.
Thanks.
Yeah, I wasn't very clear there. The raise was because of the extra class to teach (taking over from the teacher who left). The motorcycle was to be purchased from the teacher who was leaving.
In short, the principal was fired for being a terrible leader, and for fucking up the student schedules. email me if you want more details, who are you swampdragons?
