After several investigations into claims of student sexual abuse and other staff misconduct, including failing to report complaints, the St. Helens School District has already spent roughly $64,000 to hire an acting high school principal, an acting superintendent, and other substitute teachers.
Additionally, the district has given an additional $127,000 in salary and benefits to eleven workers, including Superintendent Scott Stockwell and Principal Kathryn Katy Wagner of St. Helens High School, who are still on paid leave.
