D86 Superintendent Resignation: In Brief

Ok, so Patch posted a ton of articles this week night about the resignation of former District 86 Superintendent Nick Wahl.

For those not accustomed to the fast-paced news cycle we embrace at Patch, we apologize. Keeping you folks in mind, we want to take a step back and break down what we know and let you choose what you care to read about. 

Here goes: 

• Wahl's resignation was made official Monday night. Those who weren't on Patch at all this week should probably start there.
• Assistant superintendent Bruce Law is now acting superintendent. If you want to learn a bit more about him, we have a little something for you. 
• One board member has "serious concerns" about District 86's future. Some juicy, who's-to-blame type stuff.
• Wahl has taken a new superintendent job in Indiana. And a significant pay cut is sure to make the commenters wonder.
• Board President Claudia Manley issued a moving-on statement Wednesday night. "As board president, I view this time of change as an opportunity for our district to selectively build an executive staff to propel this district on a new journey forward," Manley wrote. 
• On Thursday Patch learned no trash-talking is allowed between Wahl and any board member according to his resignation agreement. So if you were looking forward to some verbal sparring, don't hold your breath.
