(Allegheny County, PA) The Woodland Hills School District board has voted to move their superintendent from paid leave to unpaid leave stemming from a recent internal investigation within the school district. Superintendent Joe Maluchnik had been on paid leave for the past three months. That investigation found evidence last week that Maluchnik engaged in sex discrimination and harassed multiple female employees and favoring male employees instead. Maluchnik has denied all of his allegations and can request a hearing before the Woodland Hills School District board, who had a meeting yesterday.
