It’s time to say something. The problem has been there for years. Just last June, the Daily News reported, but nothing’s been done.
Fordham Leadership Academy has a problem – Principal, Richard Bost
Fordham Leadership Academy has another problem – Tweed protects Bost
Informational Picket /Thursday, September 16 / 3:45 – 4:45 / Fordham Leadership Academy for Business and Technology / 500 E Fordham Road / the Bronx (former Theodore Roosevelt building)
- Principal Richard Bost has created an unpleasant work environment
- Accused of mishandling funds, but rumored to have received just a letter to file (a mere slap on the wrist)
- Multiple accusations of sexual harassment, unwanted touching, and worse- extending over several years, and continuing to today
- Accusations that staff who refused his advances have faced retaliation – undesirable assignments, lost programs, disciplinary action, and derogatory ratings
- The Office of Equal Opportunity found that he had engaged in sexual harassment.
- After the OEO finding, Bost was removed, BUT TWEED PUT HIM BACK
Support Fordham Leadership Academy Staff!
Hands off our staff and teachers!
Remove Bost from supervising anyone!

Please come out on a day when we can speak up. Too many entities don’t take this monster to be enough of a threat. When people share what has happened and continues to happen to people outside DOE and UFT, they are shocked that this principal stays on while his damages increase in numbers. The school is suffering, the students are in a toxic environment, and staffers are caught in a twilight zone.
