A Bridgeport elementary school principal is facing charges for allegedly stealing from a school fundraising account.
Marilyn Taylor, 46, had been the principal of Dunbar School.
Police say she stole $10,000 from the account, which she then spent mostly at the Mohegan Sun Casino.
Taylor was caught after an internal audit by the Board of Education.
Dunbar School parents say they are surprised because Taylor was well respected and did a wonderful job at the school.
School officials say Taylor had been on paid administrative leave since Nov. 10. They say they don't expect her to work at Dunbar or any other school in the city again.
