| Frequently Asked Questions Concerning Appeals to the Commissioner of Education (1474 words) |
 | The Commissioner has the power to remove a trustee, member of the board of education and certain other school officers for wilful misconduct or neglect of duty. |
| However, the Commissioner will not remove a district officer unless it is clearly established that the officer acted intentionally and with a wrongful purpose to (1) violate the law, (2) neglect his duty, or (3) disobey a decision, order or regulation of the Commissioner. |
| The Commissioner will still review the petition to determine whether the petitioner is likely to succeed on the merits and whether petitioner will be irreparably harmed in the absence of a stay. |
