It pays to be the chancellor's pet.
Principal Linda Hill of IS 49 in Staten Island was caught red-handed ripping off taxpayers in 2013 — after years of double dipping into overtime funds.
But Chancellor Carmen Fariña — Hill's mentor when she became principal — has yet to discipline Hill or even require her to pay the money back.
Hill admitted she collected simultaneous overtime on multiple occasions for attending IS 49's School Leadership Team meetings and for supervising an after-school program.
In testimony in a teacher's lawsuit last October, Hill said she faced no fine or other discipline.
"I'm going to have to pay back whatever they decided the amount," Hill said, but added she wasn't told how much to repay or when.
Hill, whose salary last year was $146,713, has raked in an extra $55,700 in overtime in the last six years, records show.
Francesco Portelos, a former IS 49 teacher and member of the School Leadership Team, blew the whistle on Hill after obtaining overtime records in a Freedom of Information Law request.
The Department of Education completed a probe in 2013, but has kept it under wraps. The DOE refused to release its report to The Post, saying only, "The matter is pending."
Portelos was banished to the rubber room for two years while the DOE probed charges lodged by Hill after he questioned her handling of school finances. Now a temporary teacher at IS 24 in Staten Island, he is suing the DOE in Brooklyn federal court, charging retaliation for raising his concerns.
