Staff members
at Andalusia School in Yonkers are striking in protest of the school’s principal’s firing.
News 12 is told teachers and
parents are upset over the firing of Brother Abdel Nasser Nofal.
Nofal was dismissed last night
following a dispute with the Board of Trustees.
Teachers were informed they would be
fired if they did not return to work.
Parents supporting the strike say
they plan to keep their kids out of school until Nofal is reinstated.
News 12 reached
out to the Andalusia School for comment but
has yet to hear back.
The private school
is located on Walnut Street and
has nearly 300 attendees from kindergarten to 12th grade.
