Marshall School Official Resigns

MARSHALL – The Marshall School District’s Assistant Superintendent for Business and Financial Services, Kristin Byrd, has submitted her resignation. The Longview News Journal reports Byrd submitted her resignation, which is effective immediately, after she reached a separation agreement with the district. She had been on paid administrative leave since late last week. School trustees had voted unanimously on Monday to begin termination proceedings against Byrd. That process is no longer necessary since she has submitted her resignation. There is no word on the allegations against Byrd. School Superintendent Jerry Gibson did say it had nothing to do with any criminal or moral actions on her part.
