Bosque Farms Elementary principal absent amid social media controversy
Bosque Farms Elementary
A Los Lunas Schools elementary principal has not been on campus this week and her absence appears to be due to a social media post last week.
The incident was started by a post Bosque Farms Elementary School Principal Regina Lucero shared on her personal Facebook page on Thursday, Sept. 11, the day after political activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated in Utah.
On Monday, the district issued a statement, which did not mention Lucero by name, that in part stated, “Until further notice, Assistant Principal (Charlotte) Dosumu will be serving as the lead administrator on the Bosque Farms Elementary Campus.”
Journal education reporter Noah Alcala Bach contacted Los Lunas Schools on Monday to inquire whether the statement was related to a Lucero post about the Kirk assassination.
Los Lunas Schools marketing and media design specialist Sidney Olivas told Alcala Bach in writing: “Yes, it raised concerns among some of our families and the community.”
