In an email to Bailey’s families, Wolfe wrote: “The decision
to leave Bailey’s is not an easy one for me as I have come to love our school
and our community more than anyone can imagine. However, given my recent health
scare and time I have been away from my family, I have re-assessed my own need
to be principal of a smaller school.”

Wolfe has been away from Bailey’s for several months during
the past term on medical leave. During that time, Keith Hall, a retired FCPS assistant principal, filled in as interim principal. Hall will return to fill that role,
beginning Aug. 1, until a new principal is in place and well established at
Bailey’s, Parris states.
Wolfe was only at Baileys for two years, but during that time, he was recognized with the 2010-11 School Bell Award from the Virginia Association of Elementary School Principals. Wolfe is on the board of that organization and also is president of the Fairfax Association of Elementary School Principals. Before coming to Bailey’s, he was principal of Armstrong Elementary School in Reston.

He probably got shocked at the conditions and decided to get out of Dodge! Not there too long…. He had to send custonians out daily to clean the trash up on the feild and playgrounds.
"Custonians" and "feild" – someone needs to go back to elementary school and learn how to spell!
A classic case of TWA – Typing While Angry.
every school in FCPS has custodians who clean their playgrounds….
