SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENT SUSPENDED

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has suspended Okaloosa County schools Superintendent Mary Beth Jackson after grand-jury reports alleged dereliction of duty by Jackson. State Education Commissioner Richard Corcoran recommended the suspension. The announcement came as DeSantis prepared to travel later in the day to South Florida, where he was expected to announce the suspension of Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel because of his agency’s handling of the mass shooting last February at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland.
