Mr. Al Boniti has been a Teacher/Principal at St. Joseph the Worker grade school for 43 years. During this time, he has touched the lives of thousands of students and families. He has shown us leadership, compassion, charity, strength, love and has instilled the importance of education as a means of making all dreams possible; but most importantly he has exemplified a Christian/Catholic morality and lifestyle. These honorable qualities led him to being a recipient of the Bishop's Cross. This Petition is an expression of the Saint Joseph the Worker community's incredible dissatisfaction with the news that Mr. Boniti's contract is not being renewed for the upcoming 2017 -18 school year. We do not understand how a man that has been devoted to serving this school for so many years can be disrespected as such. Since this is an emotionally charged decision involving a revered school icon, we feel that the community should have a voice. We also feel that Mr. Boniti should be afforded the dignity of retiring when he is ready.
