Following a chaotic Friday board meeting and a weekend of rampant speculation and community concern, the Traverses City Area Public Schools Board of Education has issued a statement regarding the status of Superintendent Ann Cardon, who previously served in St. Joseph as the public school’s superintendent.

Here is what the Traverse City board says:

On behalf of the Traverse City Area Public Schools (TCAPS) Board of Education President Sue Kelly and Superintendent Ann Cardon, please see the following joint statement:

Over the last few days there has been much speculation in the community about TCAPS and the future of the Superintendent. It is unfortunate that there has been significant conjecture, conjecture which fails to acknowledge that the Board has an obligation to uphold, and employees have a right to expect, privacy under the law when requested. The Board takes its oath and Standards of Practice very seriously, including its charge to: “Maintain the confidentiality of privileged information including that shared in closed sessions of the board.” Both Superintendent Cardon and the Board of Education remain resolute in our collective focus on our students and their learning. We are confident that our incredible team of professionals will continue to advance our mission, which is that we exist to educate, because education improves the quality of life for all. Additional information will be shared when available and appropriate. At this time, Ann Cardon has requested privacy and will not be conducting media interviews.
