The Dollarway school board has suspended the district’s superintendent with pay effective immediately and named an interim replacement.
After a half-hour executive session during a Thursday meeting, board Director Gene Stewart made the motion to suspend Superintendent Arthur Tucker, who was named to the position last year. When asked after the meeting why Tucker was suspended, Stewart said that “the superintendent serves at the pleasure of the board.”
Tucker says board members kicked him out of the executive session but he didn’t know why he was asked to leave the meeting. He has one year and 11 months remaining on his contract.
The board named Ruth Bogy, the district’s coordinator of federal programs, as the interim superintendent.

HAHAHAHAA .........Another episode in "AS THE POLITITIANS TURN",who would ecpect or hope for any better in such a place anyway? What exactly does 'serves at the p l e a s u r e of the board' mean anyway? More evasive ,elusive and veiled statements don't exist.Lawyers and courts are already swamped by such verbage.Transparancy in government & politics is what was suppose to be a value in AMERICA....how could that happen when school facilities are operated by such vaguery and nebulousness in the very educational systems which account for what the american population is taught! Monkey see..monkies DO~THEY ARE ALL TOO TRANSPARENT......always will be. Welcome to the USA!
