Interim Principal Named for Stuyvesant High School as Cheating Inquiry Unfolds

Al Baker:

The former head of a specialized high school in Queens was named interim head of Stuyvesant High School on Monday, three days after its principal abruptly announced his retirement amid a continuing cheating inquiry.

The new interim principal, Jie Zhang, has been an educator in the school system for more than two decades, education officials said. From 2006 to 2011, she was principal of Queens High School for the Sciences at York College; it is one of the city's eight high schools, including Stuyvesant, that use a common achievement test for admission.
