If you're a teacher, the classroom pet lizard, snake, hamster, tarantula, or iguana will escape two minutes before the principal walks in for your semi-annual evaluation. A kindergarten student might decide to glue her hands to her desk while doing an art project. Some children will get stuck in their desks when they try to exit through the rear of the desk, between the back and the seat. In an elementary school, these incidents are only ordinary, everyday events. Who wouldn't want to have an invisible chair inside an elementary school classroom?
In Real Principals Have No Class DeLene Sholes weaves these ordinary incidents into a novel based on a true story about a principal and her staff who worked to save an old school from being closed, and to achieve their vision for bringing the school to a point
"...a captivating book...the inside story of a time-worn little school and the new principal who gets caught up in a mission to keep the old school alive and growing, with its special flavor and charm. DeLene Sholes' story is based on reality, with the hardships and the humor, the youngsters and their parents--who range from appreciative and helpful to arrogant and destructive--and the camaraderie of a staff struggling against tough odds. Readers will get acquainted with a delightful setting, a small coastal village feeling the pangs of sudden growth, and be warmed by the vigor, the conflict, the nostalgia and personalities that the author has brought to life."
