Decision follows independent inquiry into allegations of bullying

SAN DIEGO — The Board of Poway Unified School District made the decision to terminate Marian Kim Phelps's employment and services as the district's superintendent on Tuesday.

The decision came after an independent investigation started last November into Phelps' involvement with the controversy surrounding the Del Norte High School softball team. Parents accused Phelps, whose daughter is a team member, of being linked to reported instances of bullying within the team. Subsequently, a lawsuit was filed by one of the players and her father alleging the school’s investigation was biased and resulted in the plaintiff being banned from playing softball her senior year.
