Citing preexisting concerns, Swampscott parents Friday presented the School Committee with a statement of no confidence in the elementary school principal who recently came out as transgender.
Shannon Daniels, previously known as Tom, also took an unexpected leave of absence this week. Superintendent Pamela Angelakis initially told parents in an e-mail that she and Daniels had mutually agreed Daniels would go on leave for at least a few days. On Friday, the superintendents assistant said she could not say when Daniels would return.
School Committee chairwoman Amy OConnor said she received the parents petition Friday, and she was just beginning to evaluate it with fellow members.It was unclear how many signatures the parents had gathered and whether the petition was representative of the school community. The woman who launched the petition declined to comment.
Many have expressed vocal support for Daniels, and at a parents meeting attended by the Globe last month, many took pains to explain that they were troubled not by Danielss gender identity but by the rushed way the news was communicated.
Some bristled at the suddenness of the transition, which they had to explain to their children, none older than fourth-graders. Daniels sent letters on a Tuesday notifying families of the decision to immediately move toward presenting myself and identifying as female.
The petition the parents circulated refers to Daniels as she and otherwise makes no mention of the principals gender identity. Instead, the petition faults Daniels solely on performance, alleging the principal created a toxic environment for students and staff, and failed to recognize mistakes or listen to parents and staff.

Why are children being subjected to a mentally ill principal? It is tragic for parents to have to explain this bizarre behavior to young children.
Reality? Most of the parents said, "This guy has issues. Keep him away from my kid." Guy gets put on indefinite leave, and slinks out the back door, likely never to return. But that doesn't support the media narrative.
I feel sorry for his wife and kids.
As long as his DNA shows him to be male, he IS a he. A pervert, degenerate and a deviant, to be certain, with NO legitimate reason to be anywhere near children.
My advise is to drink heavily.
New theory:
This guy is going to use “mental incompetence” to avoid being prosecuted for some crime that is about to be exposed and is laying the groundwork for that now.
“It’s always paid leave.”
That’s just ridiculous. Even the Ma. parents of Swampscott can’t stand this fool.
Parents should hook him up to the pickup truck and teach him what “drag” really means.
“After quitting drinking in November, Daniels began dressing female more often at home, buying more womens clothes, and joined a transgender support group.”
Somebody buy him some liquor...
“The purpose of hiring a trans principal is to force the kids to accept the deviancy”.
Good grief read the article. They did not hire a transgender. They hired a guy to do the job and a few days ago showed up as a women.
This is good. All we (normal deplorables) have to do is to continue to refuse to accept this nonsense. Refuse to let the insane raise your children. Refuse to give perverts access to them. Refuse them safe haven. Do not accept them.
Don’t let this mentally ill person near children. Who knows what will (has) happen???
If I began daily dressing like Abe Lincoln and told everyone that I was Abe Lincoln, I would be dubbed insane—rightly so. This man is mentally disturbed, and should never be allowed to work around children again.
IT looks like Mr. Lippman from Seinfeld.
Oh I don’t know.
I think its reaction to actually being referred to as “IT” would be something special!
On second thought, calling him “it” instead of the correct pronoun is probably more derogatory. So I’m in.
“On second thought, calling him it instead of the correct pronoun is probably more derogatory.”
Actually, I think “it” is the perfect solution to the “personal pronoun problem”. Spread it far and wide!
Good for the parents, there is still hope, even in MA.
oh....my....
