Schools chief hired after cheating scandal won’t be rehired

ATLANTA (AP) — Atlanta’s school board won’t renew the contract of the superintendent who was hired in the aftermath of a cheating scandal that involved multiple educators.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports board Chairman Jason Esteves announced Monday that the board told Superintendent Meria Carstarphen in July but delayed the public announcement to avoid disrupting the start of school. Esteves says he hopes she’ll remain until her contract ends June 30.
