Worst principal finally shows up- Marcella Sills finally dragged herself into class on time Monday - NYC Rockaway Queens

“School of No” Principal Marcella Sills finally dragged herself into class on time Monday — sauntering through the doors at 7:30 a.m. in a bid to look good for investigators probing her failing and dilapidated PS 106.

“She hasn’t shown up that early in six or seven years,” a source said of the fur-clad boss of the Far Rockaway, Queens, school.

The school, located in Far Rockaway, has no art or gym classes, and students are frequently plopped in front of movie screens instead of learning.

Sills appeared to be scrambling like a failing student at finals time to put on a show for the city Department of Education probers who showed up following a series of Post exposés.

PS 106 earned its “School of No” moniker because, numerous school sources say, it has no gym, no art classes, kindergarten trailers that smell like animal urine and no reading, writing or math books for the rigorous Common Core curriculum.

Despite the squalor, Sills still forces parents — many of whom live below the poverty line — to cough up more than $200 to attend a bizarre, end-of-year prom in which fifth-graders must dress up like brides and grooms.

Also, sources say Sills frequently fails to attend work. http://nypost.com/2014/01/13/school-official-finally-investigates-nys-worst-elementary/

Letters describe Sills as a tyrant and “rude lunatic administrator” who spurred an exodus of excellent teachers and failed to provide basic student supplies and services while handsomely furnishing her own office and squandering funds on catering and decorations.

“You need to examine Ms. Sills’ inability to lead,” says a 2006 letter from a “concerned teacher” to top Department of Education officials, including Carmen Fariña — now the city’s newly installed chancellor — and then-Chancellor Joel Klein. “Teacher morale is at an all-time low.”

A 2006 letter to Special Commissioner of Investigation Richard Condon — with copies to then-Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Klein and other officials — said Sills “comes in late on a daily basis” and does not record her absences, but calls staffers at home if they call in sick.
