We now know that Superintendent Richard Dunlap is planning to retire from the Upper Darby School District on Sept. 7. Until then he will be on vacation. For the past several weeks, he has been on paid leave.
That's all good to know.
But we used our editorial page today to ask a fairly simple question.
Why?
Why is that Dunlap and the district are now parting ways, just a year after the school board offered him glowing performance reviews and rewarded him with a five-year contract extension and a pay hike.
We think the taxpayers - yes, those folks who pick up the tab for Dunlap's $194,000 annual salary - have a right to know.
