aries: you are still missing the point. Noone is promoting the principal asking ADVICE from the students and he is not walking into the classroom announcing “who knows Ploni?” A better mashal would be if the directer of the board’s brother-in-law was neighbors with a candidate for principal it would be extremely reasonable to ask his impression. If you want to really know about the midos of a prospective shidduch, ask his roommates not his Rebbi.
