Former Boston principal used nearly $40K of school funds to finance all-inclusive vacations to Barbados: FBI

Naia Wilson, 60, of Mattapan, was the principal at New Mission School from 2006 through 2019, according to a release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office. Wilson pleaded guilty to one count of wire fraud and agreed to pay restitution after she defrauded the Boston Public Schools and state taxpayers of approximately $38,806.

The school is a pilot school that is given “maximum autonomy over their budget and spending,” the U.S. Attorney’s Office said. During Wilson’s tenure, the school received a lump sum per pupil budget from Boston Public Schools and administrators decided how to spend that money based on the needs of the school.
