A Brooklyn principal has died due to complications from the coronavirus.
Dezann Romain was only 36 years old, and has become the first known coronavirus death of a New York City public school staff, officials said Monday.
Romain was the principal at Brooklyn Democracy Academy high school in Brownsville.
It’s not clear exactly what the complications were or if Romain had any underlying health issues.
“It is with profound sadness and overwhelming grief that we announce the passing of our sister, CSA member Dezann Romain, Principal of Brooklyn Democracy Academy, due to complications from Coronavirus,” the union said in a statement.
“Our prayers are with her family and school community as we mourn alongside them. Please keep Principal Romain in your thoughts and continue to do everything possible to keep yourselves and your loved ones safe during this health crisis.”
