Principal Shannon Daniels, 52, formerly Tom Daniels, announced three weeks ago that they’re transgender and would be presenting as female going forward.
Daniels, a Swampscott resident, who became the school’s principal in 2012, identifies as both male and female and prefers “they/them” pronouns for a gender-fluid identity, but plans to become fully transitioned to female.
“Principal Daniels is on a temporary leave of absence,” wrote Superintendent Pamela Angelakis and Swampscott Police Chief Ronald Madigan in a correspondence to Stanley families. The email was shared with The Item by a Swampscott resident who wishes to remain anonymous. There is also a police presence at the school this week.
The correspondence reads that the school district’s director of curriculum and instruction Anne Marie Condike was at the Stanley School on Monday and Angelakis will be at the school Tuesday.
According to the superintendent’s office, Daniels was not at school on Monday and will not be at Stanley Tuesday. The principal will be in on Wednesday to meet with Angelakis. The circumstances regarding the leave or its length was not clarified, but the superintendent’s office stated the leave was not a suspension and Daniels is off for a couple of days.
Daniels said they couldn’t comment.
“You will also see a police presence,” Angelakis and Madigan wrote in the correspondence. “While no credible threats have been received, we see this response as an abundance of caution for our school community. We look forward to getting back to normal.”

For those that don’t know this thing is the principal of a grade K to 4 elementary school.

This is getting to be confusing. I long for a return to the days when there were just two sexes.
In a leadership position, no less??
Parents ought to be raising hell, or taking their kids out of the school
Another reason to homeschool.
I just wish they’d all go back in the closet.
Time for chromosome testing.
Biologically, there is XX, XY, and a few, rare other genetic abnormalities.
But the Left doesn’t really like talking about Science in this area.

In a sane world this guy would not be allowed anywhere near a school.
Out on leave? He should be out on his ass. What school board allows this? Where are the parents?
I don't think I've ever set foot in Swampscott despite having lived within easy driving distance for 70 years.However,if I ever run into Tom I will refer to him as "he" or "it".
And *nothing* else.
No threats. Bet the police are their to protect the students and staff from the deranged principal.
“We look forward to getting back to normal.”
It’s a little late for that, bozos. Sane parents should be school shopping while the crazy circus at this school rolls on.
“We look forward to getting back to normal.”
If they continue with this farce, they’ll never again achieve “normal”.
It's obvious that you don't get to Massachusetts much.
