School Chair Resigns

Following protests from unhappy parents and students, the chairman of the board at St. Mary’s School for the Deaf in Buffalo has resigned. At the same time, a recently fired math teacher may come back to the school. Although it receives government money for operation, the board has kept its meetings secret. Although members have not agreed to open their gatherings to the public, they have said they will post summaries on the school's web site. An advisory board made up of parents will also be formed.
