Boys and Girls High School has reportedly hired a new principal.
The New York Daily News says Michael Wiltshire, who was former principal at Medgar Evers College Prep, has been selected for the job.
As News 12 previously reported, parents, students and education activists called for action earlier this week after recent resignation of its principal.
The Boys and Girls High School has received three consecutive 'F' ratings, and some of the lowest graduation rates in the city.
The group says there is no effective plan to fix persistently failing schools.
