Wayward Principals

I have often written how ironclad principals' and other administrators' job security is--that it is almost impossible to get rid of them.

The operative word is "almost." This case is one where the "almost" applied:

The principal of a popular Queens high school was fired Wednesday after he was accused of fondling and soliciting oral sex from several of his students.

Quintin Cedeno was yanked from the High School of Construction Trades, Engineering and Architecture after the disturbing allegations emerged.

A guidance counselor told investigators that a 15-year-old student accused Cedeno, 33, of asking him for oral sex.

In text messages, the principal allegedly propositioned the teen and reminded him that he'd bought him a T-Mobile Sidekick cell phone.
