Dr. Lorna Mckay has been principal of Gwen Liz High for the past 14 years, but, as we've been reporting, the career educator is at odds with the chairman of her board of management, Roosevelt Blades.  Two days ago, he hand delivered a letter ordering her to hand over the keys, and leave the compound immediately because she was being placed on administrative leave, forthwith.  She didn't leave immediately, and she didn't hand over the keys, so Blades had the locks changed - with the new keys handed over to the Vice Principal.   

Now, the directive to Dr. McKay is that she is not to return the school until the end of the month because she is under investigation.  But, today the Chairman sent us security camera video which shows her at the school - leaving with a manila folder in hand.  

Now, you may say this is nitpicking - since she was only there for a short while, but Chairman Blades says it is a clear violation of the terms of her administrative leave.  That says she can only be on the compound with the written approval of the Board of Management.  

We couldn't reach Dr. Mckay but she has said that Blades has consistently bullied and disrespected her in an attempt to force her out of the school.
