Chief: Origins, Middle English: from Old French chief, chef, based on Latin caput ‘head’. Wouldn't want to insult the Romans now would we. This is exceedingly stupid decision, by ill informed school board officials, who apparently cannot manage the ten seconds it takes to Google the definition of the word chief. Caput should not be confused with the German Kaput. These school board officials are kaput, defined as broken and useless; no longer working or effective. This is why the school system is turning out students who can't pass the most basic standardized tests.
