Hoboken High School Principal Escorted from Building


HOBOKEN --
Dr. Lorraine Cella, outgoing principal of Hoboken High School, said she was met at the door of the school and escorted from the building today, following the school board's hiring of her interim replacement on Tuesday.

Sources said last week that Interim Superintendent Peter Carter removed Cella's hard drive from her computer over the snow holiday, although it was unclear what sort of threat Cella -- a renowned educator with a clean record -- could pose to the district.

Cella, who many parents admired and praised, resigned her seat recently following what she thought was unfair treatment from Carter.

Sources claimed Carter gave Cella an unsatisfactory review without ever visiting her office, and was intent on pushing Cella out of her position before she reached her tenure year, next year.
