Mary Ward, the embattled Director of District 150's technology department was back at work today at the Roy S. Ricketts Center.
Ward along with the district's technology director, had been placed on paid leave March 15, while the District investigated claims that were made by employees and people in the community, despite no evidence of any wrongdoing.
The three-week probe into allegations of theft proved to be nothing more than false claims.
Interim Superintendent Norm Durflinger said now that the investigation is complete he wished it had not been done, but it was necessary. Durflinger offered Ward an in-person apology on Tuesday, with plans to apologize to the remaining employees on Wednesday.
