Bad Principal

 

 Queens Chronicle

The city’s Department of Education is seeking to terminate the principal at Maspeth High School following investigations that allege the school awarded students improper credits as well as testing misconduct wherein staff allegedly assisted students on Regents exams.

Khurshid Abdul-Mutakabbir has been principal since the school opened in 2011.

“Following DOE’s investigation into Principal Abdul-Mutakabbir’s unacceptable behavior, DOE served him with disciplinary charges and removed him from payroll while we seek to terminate his employment pursuant to state law,” said DOE spokesperson Katie O’Hanlon in an email to the Chronicle on Thursday. “Our schools must have the highest standards of academic integrity, and we are working quickly to bring in new, qualified leadership to Maspeth High School.”

Allegations of cheating were first reported by the New York Post in 2019. The school claimed a graduation rate of 99 percent while the rest of the city averaged 76 percent.

Following the alleged substantiation of several allegations by the Office of Special Investigations, Abdul-Mutakabbir was served with disciplinary charges.

He has been removed from his position at Maspeth High School while the DOE looks to fire him. A hearing officer will weigh the DOE’s case, and will determine what discipline is warranted should Abdul-Mutakabbir be found guilty of any of the charges.

Abdul-Mutakabbir declined comment for the time being when reached by the Chronicle.

The OSI investigation allegedly included more than 90 interviews with students and staff, as well as interviews with parents and a review of applicable documents.

Shocking,Shocking I tell you shocking. This is just the tip of the iceberg. This is going on in a lot of schools. This is what happens when you have the UFT running the schools with no accountability to anyone. The kids are getting are getting dumber and dumber. If you listen to mayor DumbBlazio the graduation rates are up. You have kids who graduate and can't read or write or add 2+2 together.

But they are well indoctrinated in socialism, white privilege and BLM by their socialist comrade teachers.

Charter schools or home schooling, that's the safe education for children.

Well they can’t get much dumber than a lot of the right wing nuts on this site. Mind you, most of them are suffering the after affects of lead contamination.

Charter schools may be an option if you live in the ghetto. Other than that, all you have is semi qualified teachers teaching students inside makeshift shelters.
