The News Tribune reports I.V. Foster used 21 days of personal time off and 10.5 days of professional leave out of 117 work days. Foster held the position for five and a half months before he resigned after failing to gain a superintendent’s license in Minnesota.

Duluth school Superintendent I.V. Foster is on paid leave while he is the subject of an investigation. He also has been serving in the post without the required license from the state.

Some community and school district leaders tell the Duluth News Tribune that superintendent I.V. Foster sometimes cancels meetings and is often inaccessible. The city's mayor says he thinks Foster is "a good person and his heart is in the right place" but he does not seem interested in engaging the community. Earlier this week the school board placed Foster on leave and launched an investigation for undisclosed reasons.

WDIO reports the Duluth school board met behind closed doors late Monday night to discuss "possible allegations or charges" against the school district chief. Board members would not share any details beyond confirming the superintendent is on paid leave and an investigation is underway.

Minneapolis Public Schools is bringing in a Chicago schools administrator to be their new associate superintendent. The Star Tribune reports Stephen Flisk will replace former associate superintendent Erin Glynn.

Duluth's rally coincided with one held in Sanford, Florida, the city where the 17-year-old was shot by a security volunteer who thought he looked suspicious. Duluth Superintendent Bill Gronseth says "it appears race was the difference between life and death" for Trayvon.
