Abington Senior High School Principal Dr. Alice Swift was originally placed on leave in early February as the investigation i nto the posts that included an antisemitic stereotype was conducted by a third party, the district said. “We appreciate the patience of our school community throughout the past several weeks so that our investigators could complete their review in a manner that ensured an appropriate outcome for our students,” Superintendent Dr. Jeffrey Fecher wrote in a letter to families. The district is partnering with the Anti-Defamation League to provide training for Dr. Swift, students and staff in Abington about maintaining a welcome environment for everyone. “I want to be clear that this content does not represent me, my values, or anything I would ever choose to share.
