Florida superintendent to resign after perjury charge in Parkland aftermath
Fox News
The embattled Broward County Public Schools superintendent at a top district lawyer who were both indicted on felony charges last week have agreed to step down and the board plans to vote on their replacements as early as Thursday.
"Both Ms. Myrick and Mr. Runcie have agreed to do a mutual termination agreement," said Debbi Hixon, a Broward County School Board member. "We will vote on this Thursday so that the Chair and the Attorneys can work on the agreement." The district includes Parkland’s Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, and while Runcie’s indictment was not directly related to his handling of the shooting, it stemmed out of a statewide grand jury investigating possible violations of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas Public Safety Act, possible misuse of state safety funds and fraud.More Related News
