Other school districts, or any other employer wishing to hire Dr. Lisa Stroh, should contact the Petersburg City School District for an employment reference and ask the question “was she fired or did she resign her position?”

Parents of students, the residents of Petersburg and student body, as well as Stroh’s next employer, deserve a response to the question.

We disagree with the payment of six months salary and benefits to the outgoing superintendent who apparently resigned voluntarily due to family medical reasons.

Why would the District offer a severance payment to Stroh for her...
