School Principal On Leave Over Racy Book

A teachers union in MA says the principal should be fired for trying to hock her book on school grounds. A Lawrence school principal has been placed on leave while the administration investigates teachers union allegations that she promoted her racy romance novel during faculty meetings.

Superintendent Wilfredo Laboy tells The Eagle-Tribune that Oliver School Principal Beth Gannon is “emotionally fragile” because of the accusation. He says Gannon wrote “Crazy Fortunes” before she started working in the city’s schools.
