I think that you need to reach out to people in your area for help. You can find RD's, Senior Mentors, and VISTAs here.
I completely understand why you feel the need to post anonymously on Chief Delphi. It's a bit like cruising WebMD when you think you're sick. The much more difficult thing to do (at least for me), is to actually face the problem in person and go to the doctor. They may not tell you what you want to hear. They will tell you what you need to hear.
I think that someone external to the team who has experience with teams that operate in many different fashions could come in and help.
Good luck! |
This has to be the best idea so far. Bringing someone unknown in to fix this sort of thing is a good approach, seeing as it would be totally unreasonable to hate someone you've never met.
As for my post, I can relate to OP's situation. Though it may have been on a much lower severity, it still started with a rift forming between the students and parents/teacher, and eventually escalated to full on verbal fights between myself (student), and a couple of "mentors".
