Parents rally against Bronx school principal
Parents of children who attend school at P.S. 207 in the Bronx rallied Tuesday against the school's principal who they claim shows a lack of leadership. 
Maria Rosado has been the principal at the school for the past 13 years, and she has been previously disciplined for letting two of her grandkids attend her school even though they live outside the zone, according to the New York Post. 
Rosado also faced public out lash from parents after it became public that she recently hired two friends of the family to work at the school.
Parents say they don't have a problem with any teachers at the school, however, they say they feel most of the teachers are afraid of Rosado.
Parents claim Rosado is never present at the school, and they are afraid of a lack of leadership.
