Rock Island High School's principal will serve a five-day unpaid suspension
The Daily Davenport team
Rock Island High School Principal Patricia Ulrich will serve a five-day suspension without pay Nov. 16-20, KWQC reported. Officials told the station it's a disciplinary measure.
Here's the catch: the Rock Island-Milan School District's policy explicitly prohibits unpaid disciplinary suspensions for administrators. So the school board temporarily set that rule aside Tuesday, Nov. 10, to suspend her without pay.
