Note: School:0557pes (TORONTO) Emotions are running high at Oakwood Collegiate. For the second time this week, some students have walked out to protest the transfer of their school principal. About 200 students spilled out onto the front lawn, waving banners that read ``It's a matter of principal.'' Inside, School Board Chairman Tony Silipo told students, the transfer decision is final. Angry students blame the transfer on a handful of parents....saying they complained the principal was giving the sports department perferential treatment. Silipo won't confirm that, but says it wasn't the number, but nature of complaints that bothered him. Kelly/CFRB/CKFM
