Petition Calls for Resignation of Rochester School District Superintendent
Rochester, MN (KROC-AM News) - New allegations involving plagiarism have prompted a petition calling for the resignation of Rochester Public Schools Superintendent Michael Munoz.
A news release says over 300 people, mostly students or graduates of the Rochester Public Schools, have signed the petition. David Jiang, a 2015 graduate of Century High School, indicated he launched the petition in response to recent reports involving allegations that Munoz plagiarized portions of speeches, letters, and social media posts.
Munoz was previously disciplined by the Rochester School Board after it came to light that a letter sent to school district staff thanking them for their efforts during the pandemic included the unattributed writings of another educator. He was penalized through a five-day suspension without pay. The Rochester School Board is expected to discuss the newly disclosed allegations against the superintendent at its regular meeting next week.
