Principal Will Keep Job Despite Policy Dispute
From Times Wire Reports
Sister Mary Vianney will continue as principal of St. John the Baptist School for the coming academic year, according to a parents group at the Catholic school.

But Vianney learned Tuesday that her contract would be renewed, said Suzi Brown, incoming president of the school’s parent auxiliary.
