PS 90 Principal and AP Yanked From the School and Under Investigation

 Greta Hawkins. Teflon Principal. Politically connected enough to Mayor Mike Bloomberg to get a photo op with him on a merry-go-round:




Greta Hawkins and Mike Bloomberg (they look so cute together!)
Finally gone.

A notorious Brooklyn principal has been yanked from her school amid a misconduct investigation, city education officials said.

District 21 Superintendent Isabel DiMola told parents in a letter on Thursday that teacher Greta Hawkins and an assistant principal had been reassigned from Public School 90 in Coney Island.

Officials said Hawkins is the subject of a misconduct investigation but would not provide details. A school staffer said Hawkins was being probed for failing to adhere to mandated reporting regulations.

Hawkins grabbed headlines for refusing to let students sing “God Bless the U.S.A.” and a bizarre bathroom policy that awarded students extra credit for not using the toilet.

Public school principals are mandated to report on a variety of incidents and data to city school officials including incidents involving students.

A veteran of city schools, Hawkins - a former teacher - came to P.S. 90 in 2009 and immediately clashed with school workers. She was slapped with a disciplinary letter in 2010 after making remarks at a meeting that offended staffers.

She’ll continue to draw her salary of $124,116 while she’s being investigated.

Hawkins, 50, did not respond to a request for comment
