He alleged that the principal had installed black glass in the window of his room. One of the girls said in the complaint, “A female teacher sends the girls to the principal’s room to meet her. The principal touches the girls inappropriately and also speaks in foul language.” The lead complainant said the principal molested her twice and when she asked him to stop, he threatened to expel her from the school.
