Meanwhile, superintendent Mike Mason – the man she accused of harassment – was given a raise and contract extension. The lone dissenting vote was cast by the only female board member.
Heckler says in a second lawsuit that despite a sterling job record she
applied for more than 60 jobs before finally being hired as a fifth-grade
teacher. She says her efforts were hurt by board members saying bad things about her.
