得梅因学区董事会将起诉咨询公司,因校长招聘问题

摘要

得梅因公立学校董事会计划对一家咨询公司采取法律行动,原因是该公司未能充分审查前校长伊恩·罗伯茨,后者在被移民与海关执法局(ICE)拘留后辞职。

得梅因公立学校董事会宣布计划起诉负责2023年校长招聘候选人审查的咨询公司,此前校长伊恩·罗伯茨在被移民与海关执法局(ICE)拘留后辞职。

罗伯茨自2023年7月起担任校长,上周被拘留。联邦当局表示,他在美国的身份不合法,自2020年以来一直没有工作许可。本周早些时候,爱荷华州教育考官委员会吊销了他的管理者执照后,他辞去了校长职务。

董事会主席杰基·诺里斯表示,罗伯茨不应被列为最终候选人,如果董事会早知道他的真实身份,绝不会聘用他。她批评该咨询公司在审查过程中未能发现关于罗伯茨的重要负面信息。

该咨询公司的合同职责包括广告发布、招聘、申请和简历审核、公开资料搜索、全面的背景调查以及推荐合格候选人。诺里斯强调,董事会将采取法律行动,以确保责任落实并保护纳税人的资金。

现年54岁的罗伯茨于1999年持学生签证进入美国,该签证现已过期。2024年5月,一名法官对他发出了最终驱逐令。被拘留后,罗伯茨还面临联邦枪支指控,当局在其车辆中发现了一把上膛手枪,并在其住所发现了其他枪支。

该咨询公司尚未对置评请求作出回应。
