Cathy Hamilton is an excellent principal and deserves to keep her job for three more years to earn her pension. The end of ERO was unforeseen. The Board needs to treat her with the dignity and integrity that our community is known for.

I had a respected Lincoln teacher tell me Cathy is the best principal/boss she's ever had. Other teachers have echoed the highest of compliments. My family has benefitted from her leadership especially from the amazing talent she has recruited and built up.

Principal Hamilton is one of the biggest reasons I went into Early Childhood Education. She was a huge help in my success, did so much to aide me while I was earning my degree, and I have seen first hand how very loved she is by her staff and students.

Very disappointed in the Board's decision making to date. Please revisit your stance on Ms. Hamilton and retain this excellent administrator for the sake of our children! No burdensome precedent will be set for District 97 by working with her to find an agreeable employment arrangement for all parties.

I have worked with Cathy both as a parent and substitute teacher at Lincoln, and always found her to be professional, caring, growth-oriented, and student-focused. I fully support her retention for the good of the Lincoln students, staff, and community.

Retaining Cathy Hamilton as principal of Lincoln Elementary School is a reasonable response to a legitimate request; a practical plan of action given the depth of this school's community bond, and a compassionate answer in a district that is educating students for a more just and humane world.

We are better than this! Shame on the district for not treating a life long educator fairly.
