Charlotte-Mecklenburg education board votes on superintendent’s return after weekslong investigation

The education board for Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools voted on Tuesday to return Superintendent Dr. Crystal Hill to her role following a weekslong investigation. The district had hired a third party to review matters of administrative and operational oversight, and the resulting statement noted that the review uncovered "issues" related to "leadership and operational practices." Deputy Superintendent Dr. Melissa Balknight assumed responsibilities during this period.
