The Mineoa school board announced on Thursday, Feb. 5, that Superintendent Michael Nagler had resigned. The decision by a once highly regarded educator could not have come soon enough.
The school board suspended Nagler a month ago, on Jan. 8, after an investigation found that the superintendent had violated the district’s code of ethics and his employment contract by instituting a widely criticized video-based teaching program for eighth-graders. It turned out that he and his son, a student at MIT, had designed the program and had a financial interest in it.
