The director of NKY resigns after video emerges of him serving alcohol to teenagers

TAYLOR MILL, Ky. – The principal of Scott High School, who was seen in a video with a beer bong for two underage studentshas resigned, according to our news partner LINK nky.

The video was recorded during a New Year’s Eve party in 2023, where Kenton County police said 50-year-old Anthony Procaccino was the principal at White’s Tower Elementary at the time.

Procaccino served as principal of White’s Tower for 10 years before becoming principal of Scott High School.

He was placed on leave in October after police obtained videos of him serving alcohol to two underage teens at his Independence home. The parents of the two minor students in the videos were contacted.

A spokesperson for the Kenton County School District previously told WCPO, “This is a personnel matter. We are working with law enforcement and Cody Wolf, an assistant principal at Scott High School, has been named interim principal at this time.”

Procaccino’s firing was not included in this month’s personnel actions for the Kenton County Board of Education. The board will vote to accept his resignation at its January meeting.

Procaccino will hold a hearing on Wednesday, January 15. He is charged with two counts of aiding or assisting in serving alcohol to minors.
