This just in to the SBSB newsroom. A developing story, and one that will be followed up on in the future.
It seems that Ronald Newlon, principal at the Kingsbridge International High School in the Bronx is manipulating Regents exams.
The high school of 488 students is located in the former Walton High School. KIHS serves students that have been in the country for less than four years.
What is strange is that out of a school of almost five hundred students, only two have IEP's yet many, many more are receiving ELL services.
But if only two students have IEP's why is it that so many have extended time for their Regents exams, beyond the time and a half? SBSB has learned that students are seen leaving the building up to 9 PM on days of the exams. This obviously goes beyond the time and a half.
SBSB has also learned that Ronald Newlon is under investigation for this and other issues. Sty tuned to SBSB has more news about Ronald Newlong comes in.
