Remove Chena Cayton/ Head Principal from South Central High School. Please be respectful

The Issue

First off I just want to say that MENTAL HEALTH IS REAL (This is not made to put any disrespect threats or any of that sort to her)! And she is going to be the main source for people depression and stress this school year. It’s been a nightmare for me and my classmates at South Central High School with this new principal!! It's so many changes that it's too many to put up here but just to say the least, it feels like we are in a prison!! She said she was placed here to "clean the school" but I'm not understanding what that's supposed to mean; considering that we are a predominantly African American school. Also some of my classmates had duck tape put on their jeans to cover the holes, she was blowing a whistle at us in lunch, we have to sign out and sign in to use the bathroom at lunch. It feels like we are being harassed! These new things shouldn't have even been considered for changes until she had been there for awhile, which isn’t fair cause students and teachers should have a say! The rules she enforced there are not going to work because the size of the school. There weren't just parents in the line this morning, there were students and i'm one of them. I couldn't even pull into my parking spot because of the disaster she created. The doors don't open until 8:15, so kids are left outside in 29° weather because their parents have to work. That's doesn't seem like leadership to me. Tardies also go into affect tomorrow, so we have to clean up her mess by being late everyday and receiving tardies. She doesn’t deserve to be here at all.
