The President of the Detroit Board of Education has resigned his position.
Anthony Adams’ resignation note states “I resign my position with deep regret,” but doesn’t give further details.
The note does mention Adams’ route to school board President as a write-in candidate, and his time as Detroit Public Schools General Counsel from 2002-2005.
The Detroit School Board has approved a settlement that could end a long-running lawsuit with the district’s Emergency Financial Manager, Robert Bobb. The Board voted ten-to-one in favor of a settlement that would give them control over the district’s academics.
