“The school has been in a lot of turmoil because of this principal, and we are looking at a process that could stretch on for months and could thereby cause a great deal of disruption in the school. We felt that the situation was just too volatile to let this happen.”
“The principal of PS 58 has been reassigned pending an investigation into a possible breach of the English Language Arts exam at the school. If the investigation finds the test was compromised, the results will be invalidated by the state Education Department.”
“He had passed a background check indicating he had no criminal record. But we're looking into it further and will take further action as appropriate.”
