Lehman High School Principal Retiring
The veteran principal of Herbert H. Lehman High School has agreed to step down at the end of the school year, Schools Chancellor Joel I. Klein said on Thursday, after investigators found that two of his assistant football coaches had for years been paid overtime wages for time spent at home.
The principal, Robert Leder, said he had agreed to retire after 29 years in his post only after Education Department officials said he would otherwise be removed from the school midyear, pending a further inquiry into the payments.
