Finally. And her name isn’t Debbie Almontaser. It’s Holly Reichert. This from NY Daily News:

NEW YORK (AP) — A new principal was hired to head the city’s first Arabic-themed public school, the education department announced Tuesday, five months after the academy’s founding principal said she was forced to resign.

Holly Reichert was to begin leading the Khalil Gibran International Academy in Brooklyn on Wednesday. The school, which opened last September with about 60 students and emphasizes Arabic and Arab culture, is named for the Lebanese Christian poet and peace advocate.

Reichert, 42, replaces interim principal Danielle Salzberg. Salzberg, who is Jewish and doesn’t speak Arabic, replaced Debbie Almontaser, who stepped down in August after she gave an interview in which she discussed the word “intifada,” an Arabic term commonly used to refer to the Palestinian uprising against Israel.
