Controversies continue to swirl around San Diego Unified School District board president Marne Foster.
The three main issues in the perpetually thickening plot are a fundraiser Foster held for her sons, her role in the removal of the principal of her son’s high school and a legal claim filed after a negative college evaluation was written about her son.
This week, the district voted to commission an independent investigation to look into the fundraiser and the legal claim — but not the principal’s removal.
NBC’s Monica Dean and Voice of San Diego’s Mario Koran detail the accusations against Foster and talk about how each incident represents a blurring of the line between parent and public official.
That’s this week’s San Diego Explained.
