Guam - The heated argument between a parent and principal is now the center of an investigation at the Department of Education. Deputy Superintendent Arlene Unpingco says they are reviewing the incident reports from both sides and will be conducting interviews before determining if any adverse action is warranted.

"If it wasn't handled correctly and appropriately, then we would have to address that matter with the school administrators," she said.

Doris Guerrero paid a personal visit to the Barrigada campus after she learned that her daughter was sitting in the office for hours due to a lack of one to one aides. Tempers flared and verbal dispute ensued between Guerrero and principal Eleuterio Mesa. The cops were eventually called.
