Constance Days-Chapman, the principal of Atlantic City High School, has been indicted on multiple charges including child endangerment and official misconduct for failing to report abuse allegations made by a student. The student, who is the daughter of Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small and Superintendent La-Quetta Small, disclosed to Days-Chapman in December 2023 that she was being hit by her parents. Despite the legal requirement to report such claims, Days-Chapman allegedly informed the parents instead. The situation came to light in January 2024 when the student reported the abuse again to another school staff member. Days-Chapman has denied the allegations, and her lawyer maintains her innocence. The mayor and his wife have also denied any wrongdoing.
