Beach Channel High School graduated its last class in 2014. The building now houses several small schools.http://insideschools.org/component/schools/school/1148 ==Principals== * Dr. David Morris (October 2003–present) * Barbara Pleener (September 2003—October 2003) * John Marcus, Acting Principal (February 2003–September 2003) * Andrea Holt (September 2002–February 2003) * Bernard Hopkins Gassaway (April 1997–June 2002) * Sandra C.

He went on to become a superintendent of schools.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bernardgassaway.com/Experience%20December%205.htm )〕 In 2006, he published the book ''Reflections of an Urban High School Principal, Yo...'' about his experiences. In September 2003, Barbara Pleener was installed as principal. Controversy in the form of alleged "threatening and insubordinate" comments on the part of a faculty member followed. In October 2003, allegations surfaced regarding alleged improprieties at Jamaica High School, where Pleener had been principal in 1999; she was never charged. Students and parents protested, and Pleener stepped down.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Beach Channel High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
