North Carolina: Cash-for-Grades Plan Principal Quits

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

A middle school principal will retire after school district leaders halted a cash-for-grades fund-raiser she approved. The principal, Susie Shepherd, had planned to allow students to buy 20 test points for a $20 donation. School district officials stopped the fund-raiser this week, saying no students would get extra credit and any donations would be returned.
