Debra Mastriano, the principal of PS 166 on the Upper West Side, once forbid a kindergartner from eating a piece of birthday cake from his home-packed lunch because she thought he was overweight.

You’re a mean one, Ms. Grinch!

And after ordering a first-grader to lay off her candy bar, the principal was confronted at an October staff meeting. She defended her actions, saying it was “one time,” and that she “want[ed] them to be healthy, want[ed] them to have a good day. It was one child, one time,” according to notes from the meeting seen by The Post.

Teachers said Mastriano micromanages them, tearing down bulletin boards she doesn’t like, directing what color paper students can use, and even issuing an edict banning pencils because she doesn’t want children to erase mistakes. Instead, they have to use markers.that bags of unused art and classroom supplies were repeatedly dumped on the sidewalk at the end of the school year.Mastriano has led the school since 2012.

“I wish someone would level” the building, Mastriano said, according to the letter to Samuels. “It only breeds dysfunction. Except when they rebuild it, it should have good role models in it too, so they can learn good behavior.”
