WDT: The Principal Lives in Liverpool ?

     The school principal may be your pal but not your neighbor. Buried in this editorial is the news that the local high school principal lives in Liverpool, a Syracuse suburb seventy miles away. Meanwhile the numbers tell the tale...Only six of ten WHS students are graduating.
     The official excuse is the area's transient military population skews the numbers, but the fact is the numbers are disturbing and the cadre of six figure administrators needs to be held accountable.

      But by whom ? School boards are made up of nice people who volunteer to do what they can to oversee the process. They can ask questions but ultimately have little say in what goes on.  Besides, can the public really demand anything of these folks ?
