Leah Olson resigned on Nov. 30.
In a statement released by the school district, Olson says:
“The continuing pandemic has forced me to evaluate my priorities and commitments. At this moment, I need to spend more time with my family. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to serve over the last three and half years. I appreciate the hard work of my colleagues on the board, the district leadership team, and all our staff in their continued efforts to support every student, every day.”
Olson was one of three school board members being targeted in a recall effort for how the district is handling the COVID-19 pandemic.
