District news
School leader put on paid leave during investigation
What happened
On March 3, 2026 the board, following its lawyer's advice, put the principal on paid administrative leave right away. A trustee noted an investigation was still going on and that the decision was not permanent. The minutes do not say what was being investigated.
Why it matters to families
Jordan's principal also served as superintendent, so the district lost its top leader in the middle of the school year.
The evidence
The March 3, 2026 emergency meeting minutes record the motion and the trustee's note about the ongoing investigation.
