Weber High School principal Chris Earnest has resigned from her position more than a month after she was placed on leave amid an investigation into allegations of inappropriate recruiting in the school's football program.
PLEASANT VIEW, Weber County — Weber High School Principal Chris Earnest has resigned from her position more than a month after she was placed on leave amid an investigation into allegations of inappropriate recruiting in the school's football program.
It was determined that a coach at Weber High "exercised undue influence in the recruitment of players" and the case was referred to the Region 1 Board of Managers. "Because Ms. Earnest chose to retire, there is nothing further for the district to do. The district wishes to thank Ms. Earnest for her 31 years of dedicated service as a teacher and school administrator in Weber School District," the statement continued.
Findlay said the firing is "part of that bigger picture" related to the investigation. Connors, who was not a teacher or employee in the district, was what the district considers an "at-will employee," meaning they can be dismissed at any time.
