EMBATTLED MIDLANDS SUPERINTENDENT WILL STEP DOWN MONDAY, SOURCES SAY
FITSNews – July 26, 2008 – The midlands school superintendent who was recently caught fudging district numbers (and allegedly having an affair with a subordinate) will step down from his post this coming Monday, sources tell FITSNews.
The school board of Lexington-Richland School District Five – currently on its third attempt in four years to pass a multi-million dollar bond referendum at the behest of a local developer – is expected to announce the resignation of embattled Superintendent Scott Andersen at its board meeting on Monday.
An interim replacement is also expected to be named at the same meeting, sources say.

What numbers was the supe “caught” fudging? This is a totally fabricated issue created by Putting Students First and their ever present “reporter” Kim Murphy.

Glad to see him go, if it’s true. What a sad commentary on our esteemed board’s discernment in selecting a suitable replacement for our last supe. Bring back Dr. McMahon! At least he was above board with the fact that he was involved with someone in the district hierarchy–and they were both single. Again, the hypocrisy here is nearly painful.

Affairs have one thing in common. Those having them cheap their employers of time on job, cell phone usage, expenses, etc.
Look into it and you will see the taxpayers paid for his sex. This is always the case

Is this the district superintendant that has decided that “Irmo High Is So Gay” mandating that principal Eddie Walker accomodate a “Gay Straight Alliance” on campus?
A move that led to Mr. Walker, in a sign of his own moral stature, elect to resign as principal. Were it up to me to appoint a replacement, I’d elevate a man that can keep his fly closed.

His right hand man was fired two days ago. What is the story here. Care to speak up District Five. Lee Bollman was second in command behind Andersen. Tell us the story.
