The public school board has a special meeting scheduled for Tuesday night, but won’t comment on whether it’s related to charges against the principal of H.B. Beal Secondary School, Michael Deeb.
The official reason for the meeting, which will begin at 6 p.m., hasn’t been released but the Thames Valley District School Board says it will be dealing with a personnel, property or legal matter behind closed doors.
The meeting will happen before a previously scheduled planning and priorities advisory committee meeting.
The 49-year-old Deeb was charged by the OPP with sexual exploitation and sexual assault in a case they say dates back 18 years.
On Friday, the London Abused Women’s Centre sent a letter to the school board calling for a third-party investigation into the allegations.
Deeb is also facing sexual misconduct allegations from London poet Najwa Zebian who has alleged Deeb began harassing her in 2012.
Deeb continues to deny all of the allegations against him.
