The Clarendon CISD Board of Trustees formally accepted the resignation of Superintendent Rick Teran during a called session February 12.
Teran told the Enterprise he was resigning on February 6 due to what he called “innuendo” being spread in the community related to him serving in the dual role of head girls basketball coach, all of which he said was untrue.
Trustees met in closed session for an hour and 42 minutes, and for most of that time Donley County Sheriff Butch Blackburn and School Resource Officer and Donley County Deputy Kelly Hill to report the findings of an investigation of the former superintendent. Federal Programs Coordinator Jen Bellar was in the closed session as well.
The contents of the sheriff’s report were not made public, and Blackburn confirmed Tuesday that no criminal charges have been filed against Teran.
Teran’s resignation becomes effective February 27. He has been on administrative leave with pay since February 6.
CCISD Board President Wayne Hardin said another called meeting would be held Thursday, February 19, at 7 p.m. to discuss starting the search for a new superintendent.
