KALAMAZOO, Mich. — Kalamazoo Public School Board Members held their first meeting since a former Kalamazoo Schools employee filed a whistleblower lawsuit on March 9.
The lawsuit claimed that the board violated multiple policies.
On Thursday, a comment was made during public statements from a Kalamazoo resident, who spoke on the three major events that have transpired over the last few months.
"The check register on the KPS website shows that from July 2021 through June of 2022 shows a period of relative calm on the legal front," a Kalamazoo resident said. "We pay Clark Hill roughly $182,000."
The resident continues by saying "Let's shine some light on what we've been paying Clark Hill recently. In just the past few months we have the abrupt resignation of our superintendent, a public firing of our assistant superintendent of operations, and now a whistleblower lawsuit against our current leadership."
No other speaker during public comment made a reference to the whistleblower lawsuit.
Former superintendent secretary Tabatha Coleman claimed the Board has violated the open meetings act, abused public money, and took more than $248,000 in questionable stipends since 2007 without public disclosure, according to the court filing.
News Channel 3 has reached out to the district for a statement but have not heard back.
