Description
The superintendent of Poway Unified School District was fired Tuesday after an independent investigation into allegations of bullying.
Marian Phelps has been on administrative leave since February, after a lawsuit filed in November alleged she bullied students at Del Norte High School.
The school board voted unanimously to terminate Phelps with cause, effective immediately. A closed door session reviewed an independent investigation that included many documents and interviews with 41 witnesses, many of them students involved with the alleged bullying.
Phelps has previously denied the allegations.
