A D.C. elementary school principal who claimed a doctorate from a phony school has been removed from her position, according to District education officials...

Durham, 57, remains an employee of the school system and has been detailed to Eastern Senior High School as part of a team of managers trying to reform the school, according to Interim Superintendent Robert C. Rice...

Last year, the District school system's personnel office reduced Durham's pay from $115,226 to $113,751 after learning that she did not hold a doctorate, but wrote to Durham that "this error is not of your doing." Her salary has not changed because of the transfer, officials said...

That should teach her. No, we don't have any problems with accountability, do we?
