Plum District Superintendent Placed On Paid Administrative Leave

PLUM (KDKA) -- Following a scathing grand jury report citing "systematic failures to protect students," the superintendent of Plum Borough School District  has been placed on paid administrative leave.

This comes less than a week after the principal of Plum High School was placed on paid administrative leave. 

On Wednesday, the Plum School Board made an "offer" to school superintendent, Dr. Timothy Glasspool, giving him 48 hours to make a decision.

The offer, made after board members met in executive session, came after the superintendent was hammered by critics at the Plum Junior High School.

Parent William Fenk said, "How many children got sucked into the cracks because you weren't doing your jobs?"
