Going Way Too Far? Bucks Principal Faces Immediate Arrest If She Returns To School

The elementary school principal has even been banned from the grounds of the school her own son attends.

An elementary school principal who is currently on administrative leave in Doylestown faces arrest if she returns to school, according to multiple reports.

Jeanann Kahley was placed on leave after teachers complained about her, and then didn’t hear about her job status for 7 weeks, according to a report by The Intelligencer.

On April 8, the police were called after she showed up to a meeting hoping to learn more about her job status. They escorted her from the premises, and showed up on her doorstep the next morning, threatening arrest if she returned to any Central Bucks School District property, the report states.
