A fresh wave of increased taxes is set to hit us in 2025, and as the contributors of these taxes, we believe our flagship East Coweta High School should manifest the highest standards of educational leadership. Unfortunately, under the reign of Principal “Chief” Stephen Allen, our pride in the institution has been dented due to his leave of absence from a recent arrest- and sudden entrance back into leadership- an event that shrouds our school in controversy, undermining its credibility.

Principal Stephen Allen has negatively impacted the school's environment, creating uncertainty among students, staff, and even among us as parents and stakeholders in the education process. It is essential for the school to maintain a stable administrative front for the continuous achievement of our students.

We are aware of the administrative challenges that schools may face, yet we firmly believe that a principal's unexpected absence should not be one of them—especially not in our highly esteemed institution. It is crucial, more than ever, that East Coweta High School regains the strong, consistent leadership it once had.

In light of this situation and as a measure to protect the reputation of East Coweta High School, we are seeking to relay our demand for the removal of Principal Stephen Allen. We hope for a new administration that can uphold the integrity of our beloved school and lead it to new heights of academic excellence.

Please uphold our call for change and sign our petition to value the quality of leadership in East Coweta High School.
