MONROE, Wash. — A school district superintendent northeast of Seattle will resign and receive nearly $400,000 after an investigation showed employee claims of his behavior creating a toxic work environment were mostly credible.
The Daily Herald reports under the settlement agreement Monroe School District Superintendent Justin Blasko agreed he wouldn’t sue or seek a job with the district ever again.
