The president of the Springfield school board still won't talk about the deal to get Superintendent Walter Milton out of town, but insists there's nothing unusual about the backroom negotiations.
Susan White says personnel matters are always handled behind closed doors, and aren't disclosed until there's a vote on them... which hasn't happened yet with Milton's severance agreement.
Until that vote is taken, White says she remains bound by a confidentiality agreement that prohibits her from discussing details of Milton's departure or the transition to new leadership... even though many of those details are contained in documents released this week by the school board's attorney.
