pretty good job if you can get it!

HORRY COUNTY, S.C. (WMBF/Gray News) – Taxpayers in a South Carolina county are frustrated after learning that an elementary school principal has been taking home a six-figure salary and pay raises while on leave.

Ocean Bay Elementary School Principal Rebecca Schroyer has been on administrative leave for nearly three years.

Schroyer was put on paid leave in November 2022 for failing to properly report abuse by a special education teacher at the school.

Records show that while she has been on administrative leave, the school district has been paying Schroyer hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Isn't paid administrative leave ment to be a time to investigate wrongdoing?

How long does it take to investigate this?
