Now, Pfeiffer is switching to a job in the school system’s central office.
In a letter to Thurgood Marshall parents on Friday, MCPS Chief of Teaching, Learning and Schools Ruschelle Reuben wrote that it would be Pfeiffer’s last day at the school and she will move into a new central office position.
Pfeiffer’s new job will be coordinator of summer programs and tutoring in the Office of Teaching Learning and Schools, MCPS spokeswoman Gboyinde Onijala told Bethesda Beat on Friday. Pfeiffer starts the new job on Monday, with a salary of $119,870, Onijala said.
Asked whether the change in position is related to the controversy over the incident at East Silver Spring or any backlash at Thurgood Marshall Elementary, Onijala declined to comment, calling it a “personnel-related matter.”

Both sides of a lawsuit that alleges two police officers mistreated a 5-year-old boy after he walked away from his elementary school say they are willing to negotiate a settlement.
In January, the family of the boy filed a lawsuit against the county and school board, alleging the police harassed, threatened and assaulted the boy.
Several weeks after the lawsuit was filed, the police department released one officer’s body camera footage that shows the officers yelling at the child, calling him names like “little beast” and “bad,” screaming in his face, placing handcuffs around one wrist and coaching his mother about how to “beat” him without getting in trouble. Throughout much of the video, the boy is crying, sometimes in hysterics.
