Parents at Worcester School are highly concerned about the current adaptation during the transition of Worcester Public Schools. Nelson Place Elementary School parents advocated after the departure of Cindy Homan as Assistant Principal. In a well-written letter, Worcester Superintendent Brian Allen stated that the decision was complementary. Ms. Homan, who recently worked as an Assistant Principal at another elementary school in the Worcester Public Schools, apprised members of the Worcester Public School community. Brand new to the Nelson Place School, Principal Mary Sealey is the main Nelson Place representative, and Parents were disappointed about this situation.
Nelson Place parent, Katy McRell, "We're very unsatisfied with the way things are being run, the whole the feeling when you pull up to the school is very different. So when Miss Holman got let go or transferred to a new school, that was kind of the breaking point for the parents. We aren't going to take any more changes."
Additionally, the letter was sent by the Worcester Public Schools. Superintendent Allen understands the adjustment as emotional and complex. He continues to explain that Nelson Place will strive to flourish under the leadership of Principal Mary Sealey. She is a former Nelson Place parent and served as principal of Canterbury Street Elementary School, which became one of the top five improved schools in the WPS of 2025.
